new installer di-live hacks debian-installer to run from a Live CD without a GUI

[Liraz Siri]

I am one of the developers behind TurnKey Linux, a new opensource
project that builds installable, Ubuntu based Live CD appliances that
serve specific roles:

http://www.turnkeylinux.org/

We needed to be able to install TurnKey Linux systems from a Live CD 
type usage scenario (like Ubiquity), but without requiring an X/GUI 
interface.

This was the impetus for the development of di-live, which glues 
together, in Python, various bits and pieces of the debian-installer.

For further reference:

In the future, perhaps it would be a good idea to try and merge di-live 
with Ubiquity. This would give Ubiquity the flexibility to run from 
console without requiring a full blown GUI.

Cheers,
