2766 casper (0.8) hoary; urgency=low
2768 * Add debian-installer/casper-udeb/title template, to specify more
2769 readable menu item text
2770 * Create /usr/lib/casper/{pre,post}.d and move all of our internal logic
2772 * Create temporary symlinks in pre.d for the prebaseconfig.d items we
2774 * Convert errors into proper error dialogs
2775 * Make some pre.d scripts idempotent, for ease of testing

2781 * Disable X configuration temporarily; need to resolve debconf issues

2787 * Allow "modprobe ext2" to fail; apparently it's sometimes compiled in

2793 * Attempt to configure X
2794 - This doesn't work very well yet (PCI BusID doesn't seem to get
2795 updated, for example), so we still don't start gdm by default)
2796 * Conditionalize some of the configuration code, so we automatically do
2797 the right thing if gdm or X isn't installed
2798 * Add German translation from Andreas Mueller
2799 * modprobe ext2, to let powerpc work (this should probably happen
2800 elsewhere, but for now...)

2806 * Mount tmpfs on /tmp and /var/run, should save many writes to the snapshot

2810 casper (0.3) hoary; urgency=low
2812 * Disable anacron and postfix startup
2813 * Don't cripple /bin/apt-install in d-i (this was a workaround to
2814 prevent d-i from installing packages which should have been present in
2815 the filesystem image anyway, but weren't)

2819 casper (0.2) hoary; urgency=low
2821 * Use mount --move to move the cdrom mount point, so that we can unmount
2822 /initrd and free up the memory used by d-i
2823 * Use /dev/ram1 rather than /dev/ram0 for the COW stuff, since /dev/ram0
2824 is used for initrds and we want to avoid confusion
2825 * Organize casper-udeb.postinst into shell functions
2826 * Add a progress bar
2827 * Add a debian/compat file (version 4)
