#### instead of syslinux.cfg settings preseed them here, less trouble

# Ignore questions with a priority less than...
d-i debconf/priority               select critical

# Choose a language:
d-i languagechooser/language-name  select English
# Choose a country, territory or area:
d-i countrychooser/shortlist       select Switzerland
# Type of keyboard:
d-i console-tools/archs        select PC-style (AT or PS-2 connector) keyboard
# Keymap to use:
d-i console-keymaps-at/keymap  select sg

# Load drivers from floppy now?
d-i retriever/floppy/loadnow       boolean false


#### Shell commands.

# This command is run just before the install finishes, but when there is
# still a usable /target directory.
# we deliver our scripts, for later on in base-config/late_command
d-i preseed/late_command   string  /bin/cp -p /end2stage.simple /target

# This command is run after base-config is done, just before the login:
# prompt. This is a good way to install a set of packages you want, or to
# tweak the configuration of the system.
# we now run our scripts, to finish setting up the system
base-config base-config/late_command   string  /end2stage.simple


#### Network configuration.

# netcfg will choose an interface that has link if possible. This makes it
# skip displaying a list if there is more than one interface.
d-i  netcfg/choose_interface            select auto

# If you prefer to configure the network manually, here's how:
#d-i netcfg/disable_dhcp                boolean true

# Note that any hostname and domain names assigned from dhcp take
# precedence over values set here. However, setting the values still
# prevents the questions from being shown even if values come from dhcp.
d-i  netcfg/get_hostname                string dummy-hostname
d-i  netcfg/get_domain                  string ethz.ch


#### Mirror settings.

d-i  mirror/country                     string enter information manually
d-i  mirror/http/hostname               string debian.ethz.ch
d-i  mirror/http/directory              string /mirror/debian
d-i  mirror/suite                       string testing
d-i  mirror/http/proxy                  string 


### Partitioning.

# Alternatively, you can specify a disk to partition. The device name can
# be given in either devfs or traditional non-devfs format.
d-i  partman-auto/disk                  string /dev/discs/disc0/disc

# If not, you can put an entire recipe in one line.
d-i partman-auto/expert_recipe   string  root-only :: 500 10000 1000000 ext3 $primary{ } $bootable{ } method{ format } format{ } use_filesystem{ } filesystem{ ext3 } mountpoint{ / } .

# This makes partman automatically partition without confirmation.
d-i partman/confirm_write_new_label     boolean true
d-i partman/choose_partition            select Finish partitioning and write changes to disk
d-i partman/confirm                     boolean true


#### Boot loader installation.

# This is fairly safe to set, it makes grub install automatically to the MBR
# if no other operating system is detected on the machine.
d-i  grub-installer/only_debian         boolean true


##### Finishing up the first stage install.

# Avoid that last message about the install being complete.
d-i  prebaseconfig/reboot_in_progress   note


##### Preseeding base-config.

# Avoid the introductory message.
base-config  base-config/intro          note

# Avoid the final message.
base-config  base-config/login          note


###### Time zone setup.

# Controls whether or not the hardware clock is set to GMT.
base-config  tzconfig/gmt                             boolean true

# Area for your time zone:
base-config tzconfig/geographic_area                  select Europe
# Country within that area:
base-config tzconfig/select_zone/Europe               select Zurich


###### Account setup.

# To preseed the root password, you have to put it in the clear in this
# file. That is not a very good idea, use caution!
passwd passwd/root-password            password secret
passwd passwd/root-password-again      password secret

# If you want to skip creation of a normal user account.
#passwd passwd/make-user                boolean true
passwd passwd/make-user                boolean false


###### Apt setup.

# This question controls what source the second stage installation uses
# for packages. Choices are cdrom, http, ftp, filesystem, edit sources list
# by hand
base-config  apt-setup/uri_type         select http

# If you choose ftp or http, you'll be asked for a country and a mirror.
base-config  apt-setup/country          select enter information manually
base-config  apt-setup/hostname         string debian.ethz.ch
base-config  apt-setup/directory        string /mirror/debian
# Stop after choosing one mirror.
base-config  apt-setup/another          boolean false

# You can choose to install non-free and contrib software.
base-config apt-setup/non-free         boolean true
base-config apt-setup/contrib          boolean true

# Do enable security updates.
base-config  apt-setup/security-updates boolean true


###### Package selection.

# You can choose to install any combination of tasks that are available.
tasksel     tasksel/first   multiselect


###### Mailer configuration.

# During a normal install, exim asks only two questions. Here's how to
# avoid even those. More complicated preseeding is possible.
exim4-config exim4/dc_eximconfig_configtype select local delivery only; not on a network

# It's a good idea to set this to whatever user account you choose to
# create. Leaving the value blank results in postmaster mail going to
# /var/mail/mail.
exim4-config exim4/dc_postmaster        string root
