+ * Bring the network up while running preseed/early_command.
+ * Fix use of debconf passthrough frontend; DEBCONF_READFD and
+ DEBCONF_WRITEFD were backwards, and DEBIAN_HAS_FRONTEND and
+ DEBCONF_REDIR needed to be unset or else confmodule scripts would end up
+ trying to talk to closed file descriptors.
+ * Run debconf-communicate with a read-only template database and separate
+ config databases, and copy any changed values back to the master
+ databases at the end. This allows us to use the noninteractive frontend
+ rather than passthrough when running apt-get in preseed/early_command or
+ dpkg to install driver updates, thereby ensuring that the template
+ database is properly initialised (LP: #557011).
