geniiHello, anyone here?10:33
geniiI have some questions specific to this issue10:33
geniiWell, I will state my questions anyhow so that the bot will record them at least :) Perhaps they are reviewed or some in this channel look at scroll when they come in.10:36
geniiSo: I am trying to create preseed or preconfiguration files for the purpose of a totally headless automated installation system. After extensive research into this the best method apears to be to do a regular install first from the cd. Then to create a preseed file by way of debconf-set-selections and debconf-get-selections10:40
geniiHowever, the records necessary for this in /var/log/installation seem not to be present. Specifically, the cdebconf which is referred to by the man page. "sudo debconf-get-selections --installer" fails miserably for instance.10:45
geniiSo I suppose my main questions then would be: Is there some alternate location the installer records to, and if so, where? And: If during actual install the cdebconf info is actually being made but then deleted or removed afterwards, how to prevent this?10:47
