27 * Patches from "phl" (https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-leledy), adjusted by
28 me, to fix snapshot resync:
29 - Avoid using cpio -u -d options if klibc cpio is in use (LP: #384059).
30 - Copy /etc/casper.conf into /root, otherwise we forget snapshot resync
31 settings (LP: #384061).
32 - Adjust the first field of *SNAP entries in casper.conf to be relative
33 to /cow, not /root (LP: #384066).
34 - Prefix $DEST with $MOUNTP in casper-snapshot (LP: #384068).
35 - /etc/init.d/casper is usually called with 'start', so handle that as
36 well as 'stop' to do snapshot resyncing and CD ejecting (LP: #384076).
37 * Fix casper-snapshot(1) syntax to avoid missing spaces between options
39 * Fix showmounts when used in conjunction with unionfs-fuse; read-only
40 filesystems need to be bind-mounted rather than move-mounted.

2296 prompts (Ubuntu #6666)
2297 * Skip X configuration if a serial console is in use
2298 * Set the live user's password to be blank, rather than "ubuntu". This
2299 is, paradoxically, more secure if the user decides to install
2300 openssh-server, since empty passwords are disallowed by default

2425 automatically, but if that is not possible, fall back to no
2426 configuration. We aren't quite there yet.

2438 session based on whether the system is a laptop

2608 the right thing if gdm or X isn't installed
