2244 * Attempt to configure X
2245 - This doesn't work very well yet (PCI BusID doesn't seem to get
2246 updated, for example), so we still don't start gdm by default)
2247 * Conditionalize some of the configuration code, so we automatically do
2248 the right thing if gdm or X isn't installed
2249 * Add German translation from Andreas Mueller
2250 * modprobe ext2, to let powerpc work (this should probably happen
2251 elsewhere, but for now...)

2257 * Mount tmpfs on /tmp and /var/run, should save many writes to the snapshot

2263 * Disable anacron and postfix startup
2264 * Don't cripple /bin/apt-install in d-i (this was a workaround to
2265 prevent d-i from installing packages which should have been present in
2266 the filesystem image anyway, but weren't)

2272 * Use mount --move to move the cdrom mount point, so that we can unmount
2273 /initrd and free up the memory used by d-i
2274 * Use /dev/ram1 rather than /dev/ram0 for the COW stuff, since /dev/ram0
2275 is used for initrds and we want to avoid confusion
2276 * Organize casper-udeb.postinst into shell functions
2277 * Add a progress bar
2278 * Add a debian/compat file (version 4)
