   * Fixed code detecting and setting/loading hardware specific setup/firmware to work more robust out of the box.
   * Adjust Kerberos setup to detect realm and server settings at install time instead of dynamically at run time.  This avoid a crash with krb5-auth-dialog on diskless workstations without a DNS name.
   * Work around misfeature in network-manager not calling the dhclient exit hooks, causing automatic proxy configuration and automatic host name setting at run time to work again.
+  * Fix feature setting the default Iceweasel start page from URL fetched from LDAP, to allow schools to set the global default by updating the dc=skole,dc=skolelinux,dc=no LDAP object.
+  * Change default host name on all networked machines to be unique (generated from MAC or reverse DNS) after boot.
+  * Adjust partition sizes to make sure they are big enough.
