|---|

|---|
| 283 | # Depending on what software you choose to install, or if things go wrong |
|---|
| 284 | # during the installation process, it's possible that other questions may |
|---|
| 285 | # be asked. You can preseed those too, of course. To get a list of every |
|---|
| 286 | # possible question that could be asked during an install, do an |
|---|
| 287 | # installation, and then run these commands: |
|---|
| 288 | # debconf-get-selections --installer > file |
|---|
| 289 | # debconf-get-selections >> file |
|---|
| 290 | |
|---|

|---|
| 292 | #### Advanced options |
|---|
| 293 | ### Running custom commands during the installation |
|---|
| 294 | # d-i preseeding is inherently not secure. Nothing in the installer checks |
|---|
| 295 | # for attempts at buffer overflows or other exploits of the values of a |
|---|
| 296 | # preconfiguration file like this one. Only use preconfiguration files from |
|---|
| 297 | # trusted locations! To drive that home, and because it's generally useful, |
|---|
| 298 | # here's a way to run any shell command you'd like inside the installer, |
|---|
| 299 | # automatically. |
|---|
| 300 | |
|---|
| 301 | # This first command is run as early as possible, just after |
|---|
| 302 | # preseeding is read. |
|---|
| 303 | #d-i preseed/early_command string anna-install some-udeb |
|---|
| 304 | |
|---|
| 305 | # This command is run just before the install finishes, but when there is |
|---|
| 306 | # still a usable /target directory. You can chroot to /target and use it |
|---|
| 307 | # directly, or use the apt-install and in-target commands to easily install |
|---|
| 308 | # packages and run commands in the target system. |
|---|
| 309 | #d-i preseed/late_command string apt-install zsh; in-target chsh -s /bin/zsh |
|---|
| 310 | d-i preseed/late_command string mkdir -p /target/root/.ssh; echo @TEST_KEY@ > /target/root/.ssh/authorized_keys; cp -rp /target/root/.ssh /target/home/testuser; in-target chown -R testuser /home/testuser/.ssh |
