PROJECT MOVED:
https://github.com/vstavrinov/install-debian
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Boot Live CD, just type install-debian and after 5 minutes You will get bootable system. It supports software RAID and UEFI boot. All settings if not defined in config file or as command line options, will be set to it's defaults either as constant values or evaluated from running system.
By default it chooses largest disk for installation. If there are more then one such disk of the same size, it makes RAID array. Separate partitions are used for /boot, and /, and logical volumes for /usr, /var, /tmp and /home. Only minimal disk space are allocated. You should expand (may be done online) logical volumes and file systems when You need to get more disk space. Also there are option to install system into single pre-mount point. In this case partitioning and mounting every part leave on Your own.

You can get bootable system including ssh server in few minutes. You save lot of time on preparing of disk, assemble RAID array, network configuration and other things. I believe default settings are suitable and good enough in most cases. If not, You can define Your own defaults in config file for next installations. You don't need big and complex installation system on dedicated CD. It is just single shell script, that You can use anywhere. I like use it for set up new servers remotely.
