Note that the locale, keymap, hostname and domain parameters are set on the kernel command line!
Zen question: “Why can’t the fancy preseed thing handle the locale, keymap, hostname and domain parameters?”
Good question. Preseeding parameters depends on the preseed method. If you use a preseed file in the initrd, then you can preseed all parameters even those that are very early in the process. If you use a preseed file from the network or from the ISO image itself, then the preseed gets applied a bit later in the installation process and the early parameters need to be preseeded on the kernel command line.
Alternatively, you could also use the auto=true and priority=critical preseed parameters.

If you didn’t know this, step up your game! Pay attention! The auto and priority boot parameters are specifically mentioned in chapter 4.3. Don’t think you can skim all the material and slide by. We’re keeping an eye on you.
