109	109	lower limits than currently allowed, parameters can be changed by booting
110	110	with BOOT_DEBUG=3 and modifying the values before the installer starts.
111	111
	112	The free memory required to use LVM and encryption should be set in the
	113	partman-base package, in ./partman, in load_extra() and in the partman-crypto
	114	package, in ./lib/crypto-base.sh, in crypto_check_mem(). Use Portuguese as
	115	language (because that will ask for country and timezone) and choose Guided
	116	partitioning with all partitions separate to test this, first with LVM only to
	117	set the LVM level, then with LVM+crypto to set the crypto level.
	118
112	119	The level1 value should be set to the lowest amount of memory that will support
113	120	an install not in lowmem mode. (This is the max memory footprint of the
114	121	installer in non lowmem mode up to running the partitioner and swapon.) Use
115	122	Portuguese as language (because that will ask for country and timezone) and
116		choose Guided partitioning on encrypted LVM with all partitions separate to test
117		this!
	123	choose Guided partitioning with all partitions separate to test this!

119	126	The level2 value should be set to the lowest amount of memory that will support
120	127	an install in lowmem mode. (This is the max memory footprint of the installer

146	153	NB: the minimum memory required to run the graphical installer must
147	154	also be tested. See rootskel (debian-installer.d/S60frontend).
