536 * Mention "default: lenny" instead of "default: stable" in help
537 text as "stable" is invalid.
538 * Use 'pri=0' as example for swap partition in /etc/fstab.
539 * Do not adjust mydestination and myhostname in /etc/postfix/main.cf as
540 mydestination defaults to "$myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost",
541 myhostname defaults to gethostname() and mydomain to localdomain.
542 * Slightly improve wording of -t and -p options.
543 * Do not try to create /etc/debootstrap if it already exists (which
544 might be the case when installing to a directory).
545 * Mention hostname in configuration check dialog.
546 * Apply patch by Zoran Dzelajlija which addresses the partition
547 calculation problem when installing to /dev/cciss/c0d0*. Thanks!
548 * Use ls for locating /dev/md* devices instead of echo so we don't
549 have '/dev/md*' in the interactive partition dialog.
550 * Do not display mountpoint if we are using the default one.
551 * Avoid duplicate 'Running ... on a directory, nothing to mount.'
553 * Do not continue execution if provided mirror doesn't work.
555 * Bump Standard Version to 3.8.2 (no further changes).

569 - support setting Debian suite components (like main, contrib,...)
570 through COMPONENTS so it's possible to use a simple 'main' mirror.
571 - support setting aptitude/apt-get options through $DPKG_OPTIONS.
572 - support selection of netinstall vs. local mirror in interactive menu
574 - make sure to ignore /dev/md* devices if not using SW-RAID
575 - do not fail in chrootmirror() when using $ISO variable.
576 - change order of checkconfiguration() so we get the prompt/
577 display for checking configuration again.
578 - Drop 'do not prompt for partition dialog if swraid has been
579 configured already' which doesn't make any sense in most situations
581 - check for mounted target in mkfs() step already instead of mount_target()
582 - use '.. to the debootstrap command' in description of --debopt
583 - chroot-script: put installation of kernel before installing additional
584 packages so installation of kernel doesn't fail if the kernel directory
587 - bump Standard Version to 3.8.1 (no further changes).
