2245 * Update post.d/20xconfig to use debconf passthrough to cdebconf
2246 (requires debconf 1.4.42 and cdebconf 0.75), but leave it disabled for
2248 * Create /etc/fstab in the target (this also seems to solve the problem
2249 with noatime disappearing, and so should reduce snapshot utilization)

2255 * Remove rc?.d/K??hwclock.sh links, to avoid changing the system clock
2256 during reboot or shutdown

2268 * Add debian-installer/casper-udeb/title template, to specify more
2269 readable menu item text
2270 * Create /usr/lib/casper/{pre,post}.d and move all of our internal logic
2272 * Create temporary symlinks in pre.d for the prebaseconfig.d items we
2274 * Convert errors into proper error dialogs
2275 * Make some pre.d scripts idempotent, for ease of testing

2287 * Allow "modprobe ext2" to fail; apparently it's sometimes compiled in

2293 * Attempt to configure X
2294 - This doesn't work very well yet (PCI BusID doesn't seem to get
2295 updated, for example), so we still don't start gdm by default)
2296 * Conditionalize some of the configuration code, so we automatically do
2297 the right thing if gdm or X isn't installed
2298 * Add German translation from Andreas Mueller
2299 * modprobe ext2, to let powerpc work (this should probably happen
2300 elsewhere, but for now...)

2306 * Mount tmpfs on /tmp and /var/run, should save many writes to the snapshot

2312 * Disable anacron and postfix startup
2313 * Don't cripple /bin/apt-install in d-i (this was a workaround to
2314 prevent d-i from installing packages which should have been present in
2315 the filesystem image anyway, but weren't)

2321 * Use mount --move to move the cdrom mount point, so that we can unmount
2322 /initrd and free up the memory used by d-i
2323 * Use /dev/ram1 rather than /dev/ram0 for the COW stuff, since /dev/ram0
2324 is used for initrds and we want to avoid confusion
2325 * Organize casper-udeb.postinst into shell functions
2326 * Add a progress bar
2327 * Add a debian/compat file (version 4)
