By default UTAH uses a preseed stored as [[/default-preseed.cfg|/etc/utah/default-preseed.cfg]]  for the provisioning of the test machine. By giving a '''-p preseed_file''' input to UTAH a custom provisioning could be carried out.



For example: 
The following command would provision the test machine with quantal server image with the options given in the contents of ''preseed_file'' and run the post installation tests given in ''master.run''

{{{
sudo -i -u utah /usr/share/utah/examples/run_utah_tests.py -i http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily/current/quantal-server-i386.iso -p /absolute_path_to/preseed-file /absolute_path_to/master.run 
}}}

An example preseed for precise is given in [[https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/installation-guide/example-preseed.txt]]
