It is partialy implemented in the trunk. You need updated cdebconf, main-menu, rootskel and debian-installer-utils. It is not yet implemented in prebaseconfig. Also it does not work yet with bterm because it does not return proper exit codes. To use it, set debian-installer/exit/halt=true on the command line Bastian -- Humans do claim a great deal for that particular emotion (love). -- Spock, "The Lights of Zetar", stardate 5725.6
