1695 * Add debian-installer/casper-udeb/title template, to specify more
1696 readable menu item text
1697 * Create /usr/lib/casper/{pre,post}.d and move all of our internal logic
1699 * Create temporary symlinks in pre.d for the prebaseconfig.d items we
1701 * Convert errors into proper error dialogs
1702 * Make some pre.d scripts idempotent, for ease of testing

1708 * Disable X configuration temporarily; need to resolve debconf issues

1714 * Allow "modprobe ext2" to fail; apparently it's sometimes compiled in

1720 * Attempt to configure X
1721 - This doesn't work very well yet (PCI BusID doesn't seem to get
1722 updated, for example), so we still don't start gdm by default)
1723 * Conditionalize some of the configuration code, so we automatically do
1724 the right thing if gdm or X isn't installed
1725 * Add German translation from Andreas Mueller
1726 * modprobe ext2, to let powerpc work (this should probably happen
1727 elsewhere, but for now...)

1733 * Mount tmpfs on /tmp and /var/run, should save many writes to the snapshot

1739 * Disable anacron and postfix startup
1740 * Don't cripple /bin/apt-install in d-i (this was a workaround to
1741 prevent d-i from installing packages which should have been present in
1742 the filesystem image anyway, but weren't)

1748 * Use mount --move to move the cdrom mount point, so that we can unmount
1749 /initrd and free up the memory used by d-i
1750 * Use /dev/ram1 rather than /dev/ram0 for the COW stuff, since /dev/ram0
1751 is used for initrds and we want to avoid confusion
1752 * Organize casper-udeb.postinst into shell functions
1753 * Add a progress bar
1754 * Add a debian/compat file (version 4)
