Debian calls it the 'preseed' file.
Looks like you can just pass preseed/file=$filePath to the kernel params.

Full preseed reference can be found here;

Hi Adam,
Enter the "preseed" file -
https://debian-handbook.info/browse/stable/sect.automated-installation.html -
section 12.3.2
Not a huge fan... I find it very arcane & fiddly as compared to kickstart
(especially the disk layout stuff.) But it works.

I believe you're looking for debian "preseed", but beyond knowing how to
spell it, thats about all I have.

When I boot an RHEL/CentOS system from DVD or ISO, I can grab the system
at the boot menu and set "inst.ks=" and have it use a ks.cfg
I put on a USB stick.
Is there an equivalent for Debian and if so, what it it? That is, what's
the Debian equivalent of ks.cfg AND how do I specify it at boot time?
