51 settings (LP: #384061).

53 to /cow, not /root (LP: #384066).
54 - Prefix $DEST with $MOUNTP in casper-snapshot (LP: #384068).
55 - /etc/init.d/casper is usually called with 'start', so handle that as
56 well as 'stop' to do snapshot resyncing and CD ejecting (LP: #384076).

565 This should later be replaced by just running console-setup, and I'll
566 open another bug for this.
