2244 * Use mount --move to move the cdrom mount point, so that we can unmount
2245 /initrd and free up the memory used by d-i
2246 * Use /dev/ram1 rather than /dev/ram0 for the COW stuff, since /dev/ram0
2247 is used for initrds and we want to avoid confusion
2248 * Organize casper-udeb.postinst into shell functions
2249 * Add a progress bar
2250 * Add a debian/compat file (version 4)
