2768 * Disable anacron and postfix startup
2769 * Don't cripple /bin/apt-install in d-i (this was a workaround to
2770 prevent d-i from installing packages which should have been present in
2771 the filesystem image anyway, but weren't)

2777 * Use mount --move to move the cdrom mount point, so that we can unmount
2778 /initrd and free up the memory used by d-i
2779 * Use /dev/ram1 rather than /dev/ram0 for the COW stuff, since /dev/ram0
2780 is used for initrds and we want to avoid confusion
2781 * Organize casper-udeb.postinst into shell functions
2782 * Add a progress bar
2783 * Add a debian/compat file (version 4)
