2778 * Add debconf templates for various things that we currently hardcode.
2779 Not actually used yet due to need for testing, but having the
2780 templates present greatly simplifies testing the remaining integration

2788 (requires debconf 1.4.42 and cdebconf 0.75), but leave it disabled for

2791 with noatime disappearing, and so should reduce snapshot utilization)

2835 * Attempt to configure X
2836 - This doesn't work very well yet (PCI BusID doesn't seem to get
2837 updated, for example), so we still don't start gdm by default)
2838 * Conditionalize some of the configuration code, so we automatically do
2839 the right thing if gdm or X isn't installed
2840 * Add German translation from Andreas Mueller
2841 * modprobe ext2, to let powerpc work (this should probably happen
2842 elsewhere, but for now...)

2857 the filesystem image anyway, but weren't)

2863 * Use mount --move to move the cdrom mount point, so that we can unmount
2864 /initrd and free up the memory used by d-i
2865 * Use /dev/ram1 rather than /dev/ram0 for the COW stuff, since /dev/ram0
2866 is used for initrds and we want to avoid confusion
2867 * Organize casper-udeb.postinst into shell functions
2868 * Add a progress bar
2869 * Add a debian/compat file (version 4)
