*--defaultinterfaces*::
- Install a default /etc/network/interfaces file (enabling DHCP for eth0)
+ Install a default /etc/network/interfaces file (enabling DHCP for all local
+ Ethernet, WLAN and WWAN interfaces using predictable network interface names
+ and using eth0 as traditional interface name for backward compatibility)
instead of taking over config from host system.
+ This option is automatically enabled when using --vm or --vmfile.
*--efi* _device_::
*--nointerfaces*::
Do not copy /etc/network/interfaces from host system to the target.
- This option is automatically enabled when using --vm or --vmfile.
*--nokernel*::
Delete grml-debootstrap configuration files (/etc/debootstrap/*) from installed
system. Useful for reproducible builds or if you don't want to leak information.
+*--sshcopyid*::
+
+ Use locally available public keys to authorise root login on the target system.
+ Similar to ssh-copy-id(1) (without the -i option) it checks if `ssh-add -L`
+ provides any output, and if so those keys are appended to
+ _/root/.ssh/authorized_keys_ (creating the file and directory (with mode 0700)).
+
*-t*, *--target* _target_::
Target partition (/dev/...) or directory (anything else without /dev at the
partitioned.
This allows deployment of a Virtual Machine. The options needs to be
combined with the --target option.
+ This option automatically enables the --defaultinterfaces option.
Usage example: --vm --target /dev/mapper/your-vm-disk
*--vmfile*::
partition/block device or directory. This allows deployment of a Virtual
Machine. The options needs to be combined with the --target option
('qemu-img create -f raw ...' is executed on the specified target).
+ This option automatically enables the --defaultinterfaces option.
Usage example: --vmfile --target /mnt/sda1/qemu.img
*--vmsize* _size_::
the provided arguments for the command line options. Please be careful and check
docs and /etc/debootstrap/config for further information.
+Networking
+----------
+
+By default (that is, if none of the options *--nointerfaces*,
+*--defaultinterfaces*, *--vmfile* or *--vm* are given) /etc/network/interfaces
+will be copied from the host to the target system.
