Debian Installer 7.4 Pass Installation Parmerters

2. When you get to the CD boot prompt, pick the “Help” option, then hit F8, then type the following to disable DHCP and PCMCIA: install netcfg/disable_dhcp=true hw-detect/start_pcmcia=false

Hello,

The above has historically worked with the Debian NetInstall CDs through Wheezy 7.0. However, I am trying out the debian-7.4.0-amd64-netinst.iso CD (on a USB drive), and I no longer see the Help option or any way of passing the netcfg/disable_dhcp=true to the installation so I can assign an ip address at install time. Am I missing something, or what is the new way to do this?

Thanks,
slacky

How did you get debian-7.4.0-amd64-netinst.iso onto the USB drive? Did you use dd, unetbootin, or something else?

I just use dd.
