1698 Not actually used yet due to need for testing, but having the
1699 templates present greatly simplifies testing the remaining integration

1706 * Update post.d/20xconfig to use debconf passthrough to cdebconf
1707 (requires debconf 1.4.42 and cdebconf 0.75), but leave it disabled for
1709 * Create /etc/fstab in the target (this also seems to solve the problem
1710 with noatime disappearing, and so should reduce snapshot utilization)

1717 during reboot or shutdown

1729 * Add debian-installer/casper-udeb/title template, to specify more
1730 readable menu item text
1731 * Create /usr/lib/casper/{pre,post}.d and move all of our internal logic
1733 * Create temporary symlinks in pre.d for the prebaseconfig.d items we
1735 * Convert errors into proper error dialogs
1736 * Make some pre.d scripts idempotent, for ease of testing

1754 * Attempt to configure X
1755 - This doesn't work very well yet (PCI BusID doesn't seem to get
1756 updated, for example), so we still don't start gdm by default)
1757 * Conditionalize some of the configuration code, so we automatically do
1758 the right thing if gdm or X isn't installed
1759 * Add German translation from Andreas Mueller
1760 * modprobe ext2, to let powerpc work (this should probably happen
1761 elsewhere, but for now...)

1773 * Disable anacron and postfix startup
1774 * Don't cripple /bin/apt-install in d-i (this was a workaround to
1775 prevent d-i from installing packages which should have been present in
1776 the filesystem image anyway, but weren't)

1782 * Use mount --move to move the cdrom mount point, so that we can unmount
1783 /initrd and free up the memory used by d-i
1784 * Use /dev/ram1 rather than /dev/ram0 for the COW stuff, since /dev/ram0
1785 is used for initrds and we want to avoid confusion
1786 * Organize casper-udeb.postinst into shell functions
1787 * Add a progress bar
1788 * Add a debian/compat file (version 4)
