Title:
  Ububtu 6.06.1 Alternate does not run base-config/late_command

Status in “installation-guide” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “installation-guide” source package in Dapper:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: network-preseed

  On 5.10 I created an automated install/configure using preseed base-
  config/late_command to install/run Cfengine. The same trick doesn't
  work in 6.06.1 Alternate.

  I copied ubuntu/doc/install/manual/example-preseed.txt.gz
  from Ubuntu 6.06.1 Alternate CD-ROM and tweaked it for my network (diff below) adding a base-config/late_command to create directory /root/base_config_late_command_ran . Ubuntu 6.06.1 installs fine but that directory has not been created. Only trace of the base-config/late_command under /var/log/ is in /var/log/installer/cdebconf/questions.dat :

  Value: mkdir /root/base_config_late_command_ran

  An equivalent 5.10 preseed file with the same base-config/late_command
  installs 5.10 and creates that directory just fine.

  Any ideas?
