ahh... a bit more investigation showed that this *might* have been due
to running out of disk space. that may have masqueraded the error: a
better error should really have been presented.

oh, duh :)
dear joey,
thank you for responding about the python debconf interface: much
appreciated. i'll take a look at it in detail: for now, it
looks basically like it runs debconf-communicate.

joey, hi,
i just found your mini.iso on:
http://people.debian.org/~joeyh/d-i/images/daily/netboot/
this is _great_!
here's what would be _really_ useful: a script where that iso cd can be
automatically created, and you can specify the options on the 'auto'
line of the pxelinux.cfg file
ator, which works pretty
well other than when you install the [proprietary] nvidia module it is
_never_ picked up or selected as the default over-and-above the 'nv'
module, which is a bit of a pain.
so - much fun to look forward to....

guys,
i thought you might be the best people to ask this.
in light of there being very little admin GUIs for any linux distro,
i thought i would finally try writing one.
the shortest path from A to B is via the debconf database.
therefore, would you mind advising me: what command-line tools are

etc/passwd file doesn't exist, so that
test returns FALSE (! 1 ), right?
and if that's the case, then it all goes pear-shaped

ok. in functions.sh, changing the test in is_system_user () to
return 0 instead of 1 if $ROOT/etc/passwd fails fixes the problem.
of course, when installing, /target/etc/passwd doesn't exist.
