2768 * Disable X configuration temporarily; need to resolve debconf issues

2774 * Allow "modprobe ext2" to fail; apparently it's sometimes compiled in

2780 * Attempt to configure X
2781 - This doesn't work very well yet (PCI BusID doesn't seem to get
2782 updated, for example), so we still don't start gdm by default)
2783 * Conditionalize some of the configuration code, so we automatically do
2784 the right thing if gdm or X isn't installed
2785 * Add German translation from Andreas Mueller
2786 * modprobe ext2, to let powerpc work (this should probably happen
2787 elsewhere, but for now...)

2793 * Mount tmpfs on /tmp and /var/run, should save many writes to the snapshot

2799 * Disable anacron and postfix startup
2800 * Don't cripple /bin/apt-install in d-i (this was a workaround to
2801 prevent d-i from installing packages which should have been present in
2802 the filesystem image anyway, but weren't)

2808 * Use mount --move to move the cdrom mount point, so that we can unmount
2809 /initrd and free up the memory used by d-i
2810 * Use /dev/ram1 rather than /dev/ram0 for the COW stuff, since /dev/ram0
2811 is used for initrds and we want to avoid confusion
2812 * Organize casper-udeb.postinst into shell functions
2813 * Add a progress bar
2814 * Add a debian/compat file (version 4)
