2240 * Create /usr/lib/casper/{pre,post}.d and move all of our internal logic
2242 * Create temporary symlinks in pre.d for the prebaseconfig.d items we
2244 * Convert errors into proper error dialogs
2245 * Make some pre.d scripts idempotent, for ease of testing

2251 * Disable X configuration temporarily; need to resolve debconf issues

2257 * Allow "modprobe ext2" to fail; apparently it's sometimes compiled in

2263 * Attempt to configure X
2264 - This doesn't work very well yet (PCI BusID doesn't seem to get
2265 updated, for example), so we still don't start gdm by default)
2266 * Conditionalize some of the configuration code, so we automatically do
2267 the right thing if gdm or X isn't installed
2268 * Add German translation from Andreas Mueller
2269 * modprobe ext2, to let powerpc work (this should probably happen
2270 elsewhere, but for now...)

2276 * Mount tmpfs on /tmp and /var/run, should save many writes to the snapshot

2282 * Disable anacron and postfix startup
2283 * Don't cripple /bin/apt-install in d-i (this was a workaround to
2284 prevent d-i from installing packages which should have been present in
2285 the filesystem image anyway, but weren't)

2291 * Use mount --move to move the cdrom mount point, so that we can unmount
2292 /initrd and free up the memory used by d-i
2293 * Use /dev/ram1 rather than /dev/ram0 for the COW stuff, since /dev/ram0
2294 is used for initrds and we want to avoid confusion
2295 * Organize casper-udeb.postinst into shell functions
2296 * Add a progress bar
2297 * Add a debian/compat file (version 4)
