Noticed that my previous work around can be modified to work a little
more properly. The reason that the partman-auto/expert_recipe portion
of my preseed block was not working was a parse error on the behalf of
kickseed. Instead of echoing the preseed information into the
preseed.cfg file you can use the normal kickstart preseed syntax, if you
enclose the recipe in single quotes. This is normally outside the
normal preseed syntax for the debian installer. So the %pre section an
be replaced with:
preseed partman-auto/expert_recipe 'string boot-root :: 512 1024 768
ext4 $primary{ } $bootable{ } method{ format } format{ } use_filesystem{
} filesystem{ ext4 } mountpoint{ /boot } . 15360 18432 20480 ext4
