Debian Wheezy raid1 preseed configuration

raid1.cfg

# This puts all files in one partition.  You'll need to change proxy settings 
# (USERNAME, PASSWORD, PROXYSERVER) and crypted passwords, as well as the 
# get_domain string to your dns domain.

# This is not quite fully automatic.  It will prompt you for hostname.  If you 
# want to automatically fill in the hostname you'll need to provide it in the 
# kernel APPEND line by saying netcfg/get_hostname=hostname  

# If you've never setup preseeding, the first step is going to be getting PXE 
# netinstall working.  You don't need a full CD, you just need netboot/debian-installer/amd64/linux 
# and netboot/debian-installer/amd64/initrd.gz.  Once you have normal netboot 
# install working, just change your append line to be like the following comment, 
# and then point SERVERIP to a webserver with your raid1.cfg file.

# APPEND ramdisk_size=15000 initrd=wheezy64.gz locale=en_US keyboard-configuration/xkb-keymap=us 
#         console-keymaps-at/keymap=us netcfg/choose_interface=auto netcfg/dhcp_timeout=60 
#         netcfg/get_domain=FQDN.EXAMPLE.COM url=SERVERIP/raid1.cfg
