It should work as long as you preseed appropriately:

  ltsp-client-builder/use_cdrom=true|false

Yes, it's amazing what testing will do to improve code. :)

I had some worry in-target was unmounting the CD, though now I think
what was unmounting it was actually the calls to apt install; so
mounting it later in the process seemed to resolve the issue. I could
test again with in-target if there's a compelling reason to use
in-target...


live well,
