Title:
There is no documented way to UEFI/PXE netboot debian-installer in
Jammy
Status in debian-installer package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Since there is no mini.iso available anymore, there does not seem to
be a way to UEFI/PXE netboot debian-installer. This is a showstopper
for our installations. We currently have about 1500 Desktop/Laptop
computers, which we install over the network.
The web page at
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jammy/main/installer-
amd64/current/legacy-images/ suggests that we should use server
installer instead, but this is troublesome and inefficient with the
huge server install image.
We would prefer to continue using debian-installer, which easily
allows us to install just few packages and then hand over the process
to puppet in d-i preseed/late_command.
Could you please reconsider releasing the mini.iso or provide some
other way to netboot preseeded debian-installer.
Thank you.
