I am trying to deploy a Debian 11.6 host using preseed.
This is my config:
# This preseed file was rendered from the Foreman provisioning template "Preseed default".
# for s293.example.org running Debian 11
# Organization: Default Organization
# Location: FRA1
Locale
d-i debian-installer/locale string en_US
country and keyboard settings are automatic. Keep them ...
... for wheezy and newer:
d-i keyboard-configuration/xkb-keymap seen true
Static network configuration.
d-i preseed/early_command string /bin/killall.sh; /bin/netcfg
d-i netcfg/disable_autoconfig boolean true
d-i netcfg/dhcp_failed note
d-i netcfg/dhcp_options select Configure network manually
d-i netcfg/disable_dhcp boolean true
d-i netcfg/get_ipaddress string 12.123.12.149
d-i netcfg/get_netmask string 255.255.255.224
d-i netcfg/get_nameservers string 208.67.222.222 208.67.220.220
d-i netcfg/get_gateway string 12.123.12.129
d-i netcfg/confirm_static boolean true
Network configuration
d-i netcfg/choose_interface select auto
d-i netcfg/get_hostname string s293.example.org
d-i netcfg/get_domain string example.org
d-i netcfg/wireless_wep string
d-i hw-detect/load_firmware boolean true
Mirror settings
d-i mirror/country string manual
d-i mirror/http/hostname string ftp.debian.org:80
d-i mirror/http/directory string /debian
d-i mirror/http/proxy string
d-i mirror/codename string bullseye
d-i mirror/suite string bullseye
d-i mirror/udeb/suite string bullseye
Time settings
d-i clock-setup/utc boolean true
d-i time/zone string UTC
NTP
d-i clock-setup/ntp boolean true
d-i clock-setup/ntp-server string 0.debian.pool.ntp.org
Set alignment for automatic partitioning
Choices: cylinder, minimal, optimal
#d-i partman/alignment select cylinder
Use the first detected hard disk
d-i partman/early_command string
INSTALL_DISK="$(list-devices disk | head -n1)";
debconf-set partman-auto/disk "$INSTALL_DISK";
debconf-set grub-installer/bootdev "$INSTALL_DISK"
Partitioning
The presently available methods are: "regular", "lvm" and "crypto"
d-i partman-auto/method string lvm
If one of the disks that are going to be automatically partitioned
contains an old LVM configuration, the user will normally receive a
warning. This can be preseeded away...
d-i partman-lvm/device_remove_lvm boolean true
The same applies to pre-existing software RAID array:
d-i partman-md/device_remove_md boolean true
And the same goes for the confirmation to write the lvm partitions.
d-i partman-lvm/confirm boolean true
d-i partman-lvm/confirm_nooverwrite boolean true
For LVM partitioning, you can select how much of the volume group to use
for logical volumes.
d-i partman-auto-lvm/guided_size string max
d-i partman-auto-lvm/new_vg_name string vg00
You can choose one of the three predefined partitioning recipes:
- atomic: all files in one partition
- home: separate /home partition
- multi: separate /home, /var, and /tmp partitions (/usr was removed in jessie)
d-i partman-auto/choose_recipe select atomic
If you just want to change the default filesystem to something
else, you can do that without providing a full recipe.
This makes partman automatically partition without confirmation, provided
that you told it what to do using one of the methods above.
d-i partman/confirm_write_new_label boolean true
d-i partman/choose_partition select finish
d-i partman/confirm boolean true
d-i partman/confirm_nooverwrite boolean true
User settings
d-i passwd/root-password-crypted password $5$2CwBetOMHDO2Vc9b$J2qdiojE2bhaFqWjbTuH7D3sxdY6mguSFIqZ6hcR9AB
user-setup-udeb passwd/root-login boolean true
d-i passwd/make-user boolean false
user-setup-udeb passwd/make-user boolean false
Install minimal task set (see tasksel --task-packages minimal)
tasksel tasksel/first multiselect minimal, ssh-server, openssh-server
Install some base packages
d-i pkgsel/include string lsb-release wget
d-i pkgsel/update-policy select unattended-upgrades
d-i pkgsel/upgrade select none
popularity-contest popularity-contest/participate boolean false
Boot loader settings
#grub-pc grub-pc/hidden_timeout boolean false
#grub-pc grub-pc/timeout string 10
d-i grub-installer/only_debian boolean true
d-i grub-installer/with_other_os boolean true
d-i finish-install/reboot_in_progress note
d-i preseed/late_command string wget -Y off http://foreman.example.org/unattended/finish -O /target/tmp/finish.sh && in-target chmod +x /tmp/finish.sh && in-target /tmp/finish.sh
Now I am getting this message:
The network is 12.123.12.128/27, gateway being 12.123.12.129 .
The logs are not really helpful to me:
Any suggestion is appreciated. Thank you!
