1690 * Disable anacron and postfix startup
1691 * Don't cripple /bin/apt-install in d-i (this was a workaround to
1692 prevent d-i from installing packages which should have been present in
1693 the filesystem image anyway, but weren't)

1699 * Use mount --move to move the cdrom mount point, so that we can unmount
1700 /initrd and free up the memory used by d-i
1701 * Use /dev/ram1 rather than /dev/ram0 for the COW stuff, since /dev/ram0
1702 is used for initrds and we want to avoid confusion
1703 * Organize casper-udeb.postinst into shell functions
1704 * Add a progress bar
1705 * Add a debian/compat file (version 4)
