Honour apt-setup/security_path when constructing initial security
entries in sources.list (LP: #820306).

* Backport from trunk:
  - Move base-installer/install-recommends from bootstrap-base.templates
    to base-installer.templates.

76. By Colin Watson on 2010-09-22

* Backport from trunk:
  - Set Dir::Media::MountPath to /media/cdrom as well as
    Acquire::cdrom::mount, as otherwise apt doesn't consistently read from
    the right one.

* Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
  - Use and depend on the Ubuntu keyring.
  - Enable the restricted component by default, unless
    apt-setup/restricted is preseeded to false.
  - Set up the default sources.list to look in -updates and -security (the
    latter from apt-setup/security_host) as well as the unadorned suite;
    also -proposed if apt-setup/proposed is true.
  - Use Ubuntu kernel image names.
  - Allow preseeding base-installer/kernel/override-image to force a given
    kernel to be used.
  - Install busybox-initramfs rather than busybox.
  - Revert Joey's patch to call base-installer.d hooks after running
    debootstrap, which broke console-setup's expectation of being able to
    insert its configuration file into /target before console-setup is
    installed by debootstrap.
  - Add armel/imx51, armel/dove, and armel/omap subarchitectures.
  - Prefer PAE kernels on machines with >3GB of RAM.
  - Install kernel headers to match the kernel. This may be overridden by
    setting base-installer/kernel/headers to false.
  - Add base-installer/kernel/backports-modules template, which may be
    preseeded to install selected linux-backports-modules-* packages.
* Drop patch to ignore Recommends while installing the kernel, superseded
  by a more general change upstream.

74. By Colin Watson on 2010-04-13

Add armel/omap subarchitecture.

73. By Colin Watson on 2010-03-30

Handle armel metapackages in ordering hack (imx51, dove, and omap).

72. By Colin Watson on 2010-03-19

Add support for preempt kernel flavour on amd64 (LP: #541625).

71. By Colin Watson on 2010-02-23

Add base-installer/kernel/backports-modules template, which may be
preseeded to install selected linux-backports-modules-packages
(LP: #526422).

70. By Colin Watson on 2010-02-04

* Backport from trunk:
  - Ensure that Acquire::cdrom::AutoDetect is disabled when running
    apt-cdrom. We bind-mount /target/cdrom, so apt's new libudev-based
    autodetection isn't needed during installation.

69. By Colin Watson on 2009-12-04

Explicitly ignore Recommends while installing the kernel. We don't want
to install bootloaders at this point.
