2236 * Create /etc/fstab in the target (this also seems to solve the problem
2237 with noatime disappearing, and so should reduce snapshot utilization)

2244 during reboot or shutdown

2256 * Add debian-installer/casper-udeb/title template, to specify more
2257 readable menu item text
2258 * Create /usr/lib/casper/{pre,post}.d and move all of our internal logic
2260 * Create temporary symlinks in pre.d for the prebaseconfig.d items we
2262 * Convert errors into proper error dialogs
2263 * Make some pre.d scripts idempotent, for ease of testing

2281 * Attempt to configure X
2282 - This doesn't work very well yet (PCI BusID doesn't seem to get
2283 updated, for example), so we still don't start gdm by default)
2284 * Conditionalize some of the configuration code, so we automatically do
2285 the right thing if gdm or X isn't installed
2286 * Add German translation from Andreas Mueller
2287 * modprobe ext2, to let powerpc work (this should probably happen
2288 elsewhere, but for now...)

2300 * Disable anacron and postfix startup

2302 prevent d-i from installing packages which should have been present in
2303 the filesystem image anyway, but weren't)

2309 * Use mount --move to move the cdrom mount point, so that we can unmount
2310 /initrd and free up the memory used by d-i
2311 * Use /dev/ram1 rather than /dev/ram0 for the COW stuff, since /dev/ram0
2312 is used for initrds and we want to avoid confusion
2313 * Organize casper-udeb.postinst into shell functions
2314 * Add a progress bar
2315 * Add a debian/compat file (version 4)
