579 * Install busybox in kernel stage to be able to debug initramfs
581 * Check whether we are installing into a directory in stage mkfs
582 so we don't skip if the target is already mounted.
583 * Mention "default: lenny" instead of "default: stable" in help
584 text as "stable" is invalid.
585 * Use 'pri=0' as example for swap partition in /etc/fstab.
586 * Do not adjust mydestination and myhostname in /etc/postfix/main.cf as
587 mydestination defaults to "$myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost",
588 myhostname defaults to gethostname() and mydomain to localdomain.
589 * Slightly improve wording of -t and -p options.
590 * Do not try to create /etc/debootstrap if it already exists (which
591 might be the case when installing to a directory).
592 * Mention hostname in configuration check dialog.
593 * Apply patch by Zoran Dzelajlija which addresses the partition
594 calculation problem when installing to /dev/cciss/c0d0*. Thanks!

596 have '/dev/md*' in the interactive partition dialog.
