[07:19] <talx> so
[07:20] <talx> do anyone ever managed to make auto installation via d-i ?
[10:14] <talx> ?
[13:17] <CarlFK> talx: here is a way to get started: https://salsa.debian.org/carlfk-guest/ansible/blob/usb-reorg1/usbinst/mk_usb_installer.sh
[13:19] <CarlFK> https://debconf-video-team.pages.debian.net/ansible/usb.html
[13:20] <CarlFK> it isn't the only way to do it, but it is what I am doing this week
[14:19] <talx> could anyone please advise about an issue I'm having with preseed installation (ubuntu 16.04)
[14:19] <talx> https://i.ibb.co/1YCdh3T/pxe-error-gaudi-ubuntu.png
[14:19] <talx> this is a picture about an error I get
[14:34] <CarlFK> http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/xenial/Release - looks good to me....  but...
[14:34] <CarlFK> I get this error now and then - I always blame my squid proxy
[14:35] <talx> it always fail on dns
[14:35] <talx> which is super not clear to me
[14:36] <CarlFK> ah.  maybe networking isn't right.
[14:36] <CarlFK> alt-f2, wget  http://archive.ubuntu.com
[14:39] <talx> hmm
[14:39] <talx> actually
[14:39] <talx> alt + f2\3\4
[14:39] <talx> doesn't work
[14:40] <CarlFK> are you in a vm?
[14:44] <talx> yes
[14:45] <CarlFK> im guessing that's whats causing problems with alt-f2 - are you using qemu?
[14:58] <talx> I'm guessing not
[14:58] <talx> qemu is related to openstack innit ?
[15:00] <CarlFK> don't know.  what vm are you using?
[15:02] <talx> vmware
[15:02] <talx> created it with vcenter
[15:02] <talx> and using it via workstation
[15:06] <CarlFK> here is how I boot the usb stick in qemu: https://salsa.debian.org/debconf-video-team/ansible/blob/master/usbinst/test_thumb.sh
[15:07] <CarlFK> what's your boot media? something like usb/cd/disk file/pxe/kernel
[15:11] <talx> pxe boot
[15:13] <CarlFK> https://salsa.debian.org/debconf-video-team/ansible/blob/master/usbinst/test_pxe.sh
[15:13] <talx> i dont know emu
[15:13] <talx> qemu
[15:13] <CarlFK> that one will add things to your network config, I would do it on a spare box
