2770 * Use mount --move to move the cdrom mount point, so that we can unmount
2771 /initrd and free up the memory used by d-i
2772 * Use /dev/ram1 rather than /dev/ram0 for the COW stuff, since /dev/ram0
2773 is used for initrds and we want to avoid confusion
2774 * Organize casper-udeb.postinst into shell functions
2775 * Add a progress bar
2776 * Add a debian/compat file (version 4)
