2261 * Add debconf templates for various things that we currently hardcode.
2262 Not actually used yet due to need for testing, but having the
2263 templates present greatly simplifies testing the remaining integration

2274 with noatime disappearing, and so should reduce snapshot utilization)

2318 * Attempt to configure X
2319 - This doesn't work very well yet (PCI BusID doesn't seem to get
2320 updated, for example), so we still don't start gdm by default)

2322 the right thing if gdm or X isn't installed
2323 * Add German translation from Andreas Mueller
2324 * modprobe ext2, to let powerpc work (this should probably happen
2325 elsewhere, but for now...)

2347 /initrd and free up the memory used by d-i

2349 is used for initrds and we want to avoid confusion

2351 * Add a progress bar
