- Store the files to /var/lib/tftpboot (default).
- Download Debian Linux kernel and initrd files for all Debian distributions (Stable : Jessie; Testing : Stretch; Unstable : Sid) and for i386 and amd64 architectures.
- Offer an example menu file to use with a TFTP server (default_path/installer/debian/menu.cfg.example).

Debian late_command
Description
Some useful configurations after a Debian installation :
- Smarter rsyslog (more directories and less files in /var/log).
- Shorter configuration file and use more files from /etc/rsyslog.d/
- Move log files to directory :
- kern logs from /var/log/kern.log to /var/log/kernel/kernel.log
- user logs from /var/log/user.log to /var/log/security/user.log
- mail logs from /var/log/mail.… to /var/log/mail/mail.…
- daemon logs from /var/log/daemon.log to /var/log/syslog/daemon.log
- auth logs from /var/log/auth.log to /var/log/security/auth.log
- lpr logs from/var/log/lpr.log to /var/log/lpr/lpr.log
- cron logs from /var/log/cron.log to /var/log/cron/cron.log
- localX logs from /var/log/localX.log to /var/log/syslog/localX.log
- syslog logs from /var/log/syslog.log to /var/log/syslog/syslog.log
- authpriv logs from … to /var/log/security/authpriv.log
- Smarter logrotate (add timestamp, move some old log files to the same directory,…).
- Remove some useless packages.
- Permit root SSH login with password (no standard user…).
- …
How-to use it
- First, make an archive of the script and directories :
tar czvf finish.tar.gz latecommand/
- Then, it can be use at the end of a Debian preseed file :
d-i preseed/late_command string in-target chsh -s /bin/zsh ; \
in-target /usr/bin/tftp ${IP.SRV.TFTP} -c get ${PATH/TO/TFTPD/ROOT}/finish.tar.gz /tmp/finish.tar.gz ; \
in-target tar xzf /tmp/finish.tar.gz -C /tmp/ ; \
in-target /bin/sh /tmp/latecommand/post.sh
