packpreseed

Script creates a personalized Debian 8 Jessie x86_64 ISO image ready for fast KVM installation. It configures your ssh service, sudo and installs Puppet.

WARNING! Generated installer will ERASE ALL your virtual HDD by default! To change this behavior, change d-i partman* parameters in preseed.cfg.

Grub bootloader will be installed on /dev/vda (fails if your first HDD path differs); see d-i grub-installer* in preseed.cfg.
