1165 * Add debconf templates for various things that we currently hardcode.
1166 Not actually used yet due to need for testing, but having the
1167 templates present greatly simplifies testing the remaining integration

1174 * Update post.d/20xconfig to use debconf passthrough to cdebconf
1175 (requires debconf 1.4.42 and cdebconf 0.75), but leave it disabled for
1177 * Create /etc/fstab in the target (this also seems to solve the problem
1178 with noatime disappearing, and so should reduce snapshot utilization)

1197 * Add debian-installer/casper-udeb/title template, to specify more
1198 readable menu item text
1199 * Create /usr/lib/casper/{pre,post}.d and move all of our internal logic
1201 * Create temporary symlinks in pre.d for the prebaseconfig.d items we
1203 * Convert errors into proper error dialogs
1204 * Make some pre.d scripts idempotent, for ease of testing

1222 * Attempt to configure X
1223 - This doesn't work very well yet (PCI BusID doesn't seem to get
1224 updated, for example), so we still don't start gdm by default)
1225 * Conditionalize some of the configuration code, so we automatically do
1226 the right thing if gdm or X isn't installed
1227 * Add German translation from Andreas Mueller
1228 * modprobe ext2, to let powerpc work (this should probably happen
1229 elsewhere, but for now...)

1243 prevent d-i from installing packages which should have been present in
1244 the filesystem image anyway, but weren't)

1250 * Use mount --move to move the cdrom mount point, so that we can unmount
1251 /initrd and free up the memory used by d-i
1252 * Use /dev/ram1 rather than /dev/ram0 for the COW stuff, since /dev/ram0
1253 is used for initrds and we want to avoid confusion
1254 * Organize casper-udeb.postinst into shell functions
1255 * Add a progress bar
1256 * Add a debian/compat file (version 4)
