Good to know that it is possible.  Before I get into PXE and all that,
I'm going to try to get familiar with preseeding using a USB stick.
I've been reading through this:

http://d-i.alioth.debian.org/manual/en.i386/apb.html

and this:

https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/installation-guide/i386/preseed-using.html

which are OK, but not exactly simple to follow How-Tos.

Got any good recommendations for how to get preseeding working with a USB stick?
