# Automated setup of my debian machines via preseeding

This config is designed to be used on a 32GB sd card with armhf arch e.g. for a PI.

Partitioning will be:
* 1.: 256 MB  boot  (ext2)
* 2.:  20 GB  root  (ext4)
* 3.:   3 GB  var   (ext4)
* 4.:   2 GB  swap  (swap)
* 5.:   1 GB  tmp   (ext4)
* 6.:  >2 GB  home  (ext4)

## Aditional setup
### Modification of boot.scr needed:
```
# this is at least on my device need because I would like to see sth
setenv console tty1
# enabling the installer to use the preseeding
setenv bootargs \
  # enable preseeding
  auto=true \
  # set hostname
  netcfg/get_hostname=BPi \
  # set domain
  netcfg/get_domain=b.molikuner.com \
  # actually I never tested which I need but again the hostname
  netcfg/hostname=BPi \
  # actually I never tested which I need but again the domain
  netcfg/domain=b.molikuner.com \
  # the server hosting the preseed.cfg in the default folder (prefer using nweb (debian-workspace) for this task)
  url=10.0.0.1 \
  # use static net cfg
  netcfg/disable_autoconfig=true \
  # set ip address (should be removed from installed system at /etc/dhcpcd.conf)
  netcfg/get_ipaddress=10.0.0.2 \
  # set netmask (same as above)
  netcfg/get_netmask=255.0.0.0 \
  # set gateway (same as above)
  netcfg/get_gateway=10.0.0.1 \
  # set nameserver (same as above)
  netcfg/get_nameservers=1.1.1.1 \
  # confirm static settings
  netcfg/confirm_static=true
```
recompile your boot.scr with:
```bash
mkimage -A arm -T script -O linux -d boot.cmd boot.scr
```
