ProfMac_What release of Ubuntu (not Debian) does late_command work with?  I there an example git anywhere that shows this working?  I have a pretty straightforward git that makes a VirtualBox, then does a preseeded install, and early_command does work but late_command does not.15:30

CarlFKProfMac_: late_command has worked with every ubuntu and debian I have ever tried, going back a least 6 years16:05

CarlFKProfMac_: how do you know it doesn't work?16:32
ProfMacEverything that I see when I try this is Debian oriented.  I am only going to run this in a VirtualBox, and for some reason I have lost access to the USB stick in virtual-box.  I suppose the next step is to build the .iso image and then scp it back to my host machine, and try to install it then, but I am also trying some other options in parallel.17:04
ProfMacAlso, my git is very self contained, and clearly demonstrates a failure.  It should be an ideal place to identify a problem in my .seed file, or to file a bug report.17:04
ProfMacI just had some success with > ubiquity ubituqity/success_command string touch /target/etc/skel/I_am_preseeded17:05
