Bug description:
  Doing a clean install of Ubuntu server on a machine with an SSD. I am
  led to believe that in my fstab I should add the mount option
  "discard" to enable trim support. During the partitioning step I
  manually configured my partitions and selected "mount options" but
  'discard' was not listed. I will now have to manually edit my fstab to
  add this in. Would it not be prudent to have this as a selectable
  option in d-i for server/alternate images?
