1701 * Fix gdm autologin configuration (broken in 0.8)

1705 casper (0.8) hoary; urgency=low
1707 * Add debian-installer/casper-udeb/title template, to specify more
1708 readable menu item text
1709 * Create /usr/lib/casper/{pre,post}.d and move all of our internal logic
1711 * Create temporary symlinks in pre.d for the prebaseconfig.d items we
1713 * Convert errors into proper error dialogs
1714 * Make some pre.d scripts idempotent, for ease of testing

1720 * Disable X configuration temporarily; need to resolve debconf issues

1726 * Allow "modprobe ext2" to fail; apparently it's sometimes compiled in

1732 * Attempt to configure X
1733 - This doesn't work very well yet (PCI BusID doesn't seem to get
1734 updated, for example), so we still don't start gdm by default)
1735 * Conditionalize some of the configuration code, so we automatically do
1736 the right thing if gdm or X isn't installed
1737 * Add German translation from Andreas Mueller
1738 * modprobe ext2, to let powerpc work (this should probably happen
1739 elsewhere, but for now...)

1745 * Mount tmpfs on /tmp and /var/run, should save many writes to the snapshot

1749 casper (0.3) hoary; urgency=low
1751 * Disable anacron and postfix startup
1752 * Don't cripple /bin/apt-install in d-i (this was a workaround to
1753 prevent d-i from installing packages which should have been present in
1754 the filesystem image anyway, but weren't)

1758 casper (0.2) hoary; urgency=low
1760 * Use mount --move to move the cdrom mount point, so that we can unmount
1761 /initrd and free up the memory used by d-i
1762 * Use /dev/ram1 rather than /dev/ram0 for the COW stuff, since /dev/ram0
1763 is used for initrds and we want to avoid confusion
1764 * Organize casper-udeb.postinst into shell functions
1765 * Add a progress bar
1766 * Add a debian/compat file (version 4)
