OEM-CONFIG-FIRSTBOOT(8) Ubuntu System Manager's Manual OEM-CONFIG-FIRSTBOOT(8)

NAME
     oem-config-firstboot — run oem-config on first boot after shipping to end
     user

SYNOPSIS
     oem-config-firstboot [--debug] [--automatic]

DESCRIPTION
     oem-config-firstboot performs some minor set-up before calling
     oem-config(8) (possibly via oem-config-dm(8)) to ask configuration ques‐
     tions of the end user.  It will call oem-config(8) up to five times until
     it succeeds (exiting zero).  If it succeeds, it will clean up the tempo‐
     rary OEM configuration user created during initial installation, and
     arrange for oem-config-firstboot not to be run again.  If it fails every
     time, it will drop to a shell to help the end user fix things up.

     oem-config-firstboot is suitable for calling from an init script, and is
     not intended to be run directly by users.

     The following options are available:

     -d, --debug
	   Run in debugging mode, sending verbose information to
	   /var/log/oem-config.log that may be useful to developers.  Note
	   that passwords will be logged in debugging mode!

	   In debugging mode, oem-config-firstboot will only try to run
	   oem-config(8) once, and will not provide a panic shell on failure.

     --automatic
	   Run in automatic mode, read a preseed file, quietly apply all pre‐
	   seeded values and do not ask any questions for already preseeded
	   answers.  If the option automatic-oem-config is set on the kernel
	   command line at boot time, this option is used automatically.
