root filesystem is not unmounted properly at the first d-i stage

Bug Description

You can notice this problem after the first reboot.
If you for instance select ext2 as / filesystem you will see that
the fs will be checked. I can reproduce this behaviour regularly.
ext3 will just show the warning that the fs hasn't been umounted
correctly.

Reason for "major" severity is that fsck will reboot the machine
again if / fs is modified.

Thanks
Fabio

Fixed with the sync of prebaseconfig 0.68 to warty a while ago.

Reopening this bug. The problem is in debian-installer and/or in postfix.
postfix is not stopped or it starts mistakenly during the first d-i stage.
Of course this leaves the dameons running in /target that can't be unmounted
properly.

Clearly this problem doesn't affect debian.
