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 questions 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 temporary 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 preseeded 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.
