Ok, I found what I was doing wrong. After looking at the isolinux.cfg
I noticed that the line in profiles/default.conf
KERNEL_PARAMS="$KERNEL_PARAMS auto"
did put 'auto' in all the entries in isolinux.cfg, but that is not
actually what the kernel parameter is looking for.
It is looking for: 'auto=true' and 'priority=critical' so I adjusted
the profiles/default.conf file and added the line:
KERNEL_PARAMS="$KERNEL_PARAMS auto=true priority=critical"
That did the trick.
Thanks for all your guidance and help, I really appreciate your
efforts. Simple-CDD is a nice addition for debian users.
