[Bug 924018] Re: Preseeding doesn't work with oem-config

[Oliver Grawert]

the preseeding in the arm images is done by jasper-initramfs using
stolen code from casper which was already verified to work fine.

just to document teh ongoing work on this bug, it was found that oem-
config does not accept to be run in automatic mode, this was now added
as a new kernel cmdline option called "automatic-oem-config" to the
various startup scripts and wrappers in the chain.

additionally issues in ubiquity itself with the debconf frontend were
identified which are being worked on atm.

Title:
  Preseeding doesn't work with oem-config

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  oem-config should be able to parse a preseed file just as Ubiquity and
  Debian-Installer does.  Currently there is no way to automate smoke
  testing of preinstalled images (or to automate testing of oem-config
  for that matter).  Using a preseed does appear to fill in some
  parameters (user), but oem-config still prompts for all settings.
  This greatly hampers the amount of testing that can be automated on
  arm platforms.
