preseed/late_command issue

horizn · 04-30-2015, 07:20 AM

Hi
I am trying to switch 64bit wheezy to multiarch during installation process and after that install 32bit package, but with no success. I know that there can be only one late_command in preseed file. Do you have idea how to run something like:?

Code:

d-i preseed/late_command string dpkg --add-architecture i386 && apt-install package:i386

'package.deb' is available only on local debian mirror.

There is a multiarch iso here:

If you create a preseed file with your custom command:

You can modify the initrd of the iso to include your preseed file as described here:

Disclaimer: I have never attempted anything remotely similar to what you are doing. I run a multiarch system that has a locally installed i386 .deb file installed on it. However, I did that all AFTER installing a base amd64 system.
