2762 * Update post.d/20xconfig to use debconf passthrough to cdebconf
2763 (requires debconf 1.4.42 and cdebconf 0.75), but leave it disabled for
2765 * Create /etc/fstab in the target (this also seems to solve the problem
2766 with noatime disappearing, and so should reduce snapshot utilization)

2772 * Remove rc?.d/K??hwclock.sh links, to avoid changing the system clock
2773 during reboot or shutdown

2779 * Fix gdm autologin configuration (broken in 0.8)

2783 casper (0.8) hoary; urgency=low
2785 * Add debian-installer/casper-udeb/title template, to specify more
2786 readable menu item text
2787 * Create /usr/lib/casper/{pre,post}.d and move all of our internal logic
2789 * Create temporary symlinks in pre.d for the prebaseconfig.d items we
2791 * Convert errors into proper error dialogs
2792 * Make some pre.d scripts idempotent, for ease of testing

2798 * Disable X configuration temporarily; need to resolve debconf issues

2804 * Allow "modprobe ext2" to fail; apparently it's sometimes compiled in

2810 * Attempt to configure X
2811 - This doesn't work very well yet (PCI BusID doesn't seem to get
2812 updated, for example), so we still don't start gdm by default)
2813 * Conditionalize some of the configuration code, so we automatically do
2814 the right thing if gdm or X isn't installed
2815 * Add German translation from Andreas Mueller
2816 * modprobe ext2, to let powerpc work (this should probably happen
2817 elsewhere, but for now...)

2823 * Mount tmpfs on /tmp and /var/run, should save many writes to the snapshot

2827 casper (0.3) hoary; urgency=low
2829 * Disable anacron and postfix startup
2830 * Don't cripple /bin/apt-install in d-i (this was a workaround to
2831 prevent d-i from installing packages which should have been present in
2832 the filesystem image anyway, but weren't)

2836 casper (0.2) hoary; urgency=low
2838 * Use mount --move to move the cdrom mount point, so that we can unmount
2839 /initrd and free up the memory used by d-i
2840 * Use /dev/ram1 rather than /dev/ram0 for the COW stuff, since /dev/ram0
2841 is used for initrds and we want to avoid confusion
2842 * Organize casper-udeb.postinst into shell functions
2843 * Add a progress bar
2844 * Add a debian/compat file (version 4)
