2239 * Conditionalize some of the configuration code, so we automatically do
2240 the right thing if gdm or X isn't installed
2241 * Add German translation from Andreas Mueller
2242 * modprobe ext2, to let powerpc work (this should probably happen
2243 elsewhere, but for now...)

2249 * Mount tmpfs on /tmp and /var/run, should save many writes to the snapshot

2255 * Disable anacron and postfix startup
2256 * Don't cripple /bin/apt-install in d-i (this was a workaround to
2257 prevent d-i from installing packages which should have been present in
2258 the filesystem image anyway, but weren't)

2264 * Use mount --move to move the cdrom mount point, so that we can unmount
2265 /initrd and free up the memory used by d-i
2266 * Use /dev/ram1 rather than /dev/ram0 for the COW stuff, since /dev/ram0
2267 is used for initrds and we want to avoid confusion
2268 * Organize casper-udeb.postinst into shell functions
2269 * Add a progress bar
2270 * Add a debian/compat file (version 4)
