1705 * Add debconf templates for various things that we currently hardcode.
1706 Not actually used yet due to need for testing, but having the
1707 templates present greatly simplifies testing the remaining integration

1714 * Update post.d/20xconfig to use debconf passthrough to cdebconf
1715 (requires debconf 1.4.42 and cdebconf 0.75), but leave it disabled for
1717 * Create /etc/fstab in the target (this also seems to solve the problem
1718 with noatime disappearing, and so should reduce snapshot utilization)

1738 readable menu item text

1741 * Create temporary symlinks in pre.d for the prebaseconfig.d items we
1743 * Convert errors into proper error dialogs
1744 * Make some pre.d scripts idempotent, for ease of testing

1762 * Attempt to configure X
1763 - This doesn't work very well yet (PCI BusID doesn't seem to get
1764 updated, for example), so we still don't start gdm by default)
1765 * Conditionalize some of the configuration code, so we automatically do
1766 the right thing if gdm or X isn't installed
1767 * Add German translation from Andreas Mueller
1768 * modprobe ext2, to let powerpc work (this should probably happen
1769 elsewhere, but for now...)

1783 prevent d-i from installing packages which should have been present in
1784 the filesystem image anyway, but weren't)

1790 * Use mount --move to move the cdrom mount point, so that we can unmount
1791 /initrd and free up the memory used by d-i
1792 * Use /dev/ram1 rather than /dev/ram0 for the COW stuff, since /dev/ram0
1793 is used for initrds and we want to avoid confusion
1794 * Organize casper-udeb.postinst into shell functions
1795 * Add a progress bar
1796 * Add a debian/compat file (version 4)
