Hi,
i'am searching for a HowTo or a reference manual which describe the way
to create a new installer package (udeb?) with support for the new
GUI-Interface included.

Thanks in advance.

Bastian

That question does not really make sense. The graphical installer is
supported by default in cdebconf, so you don't need to do anything special
in new udebs to have that supported. Just use the debconf protocol.

You just need to make sure that you include rootskel-gtk and
cdebconf-gtk-udeb (and use the correct boot parameters) in the D-I initrd
when you build an image, which is all done by default when you use one of
the "build_*-gtk" targets available for building an image from
installer/build.

The best general instructions for creating udebs and building D-I are in:

Cheers,
FJP
