If I had had a spontaneous idea then I would have done that. However, I
did not even do a "man read". install.sh should be merged with the
Debian Installer and not exist by itself, and with most time spent in
cdebootstrap I did not care about optimising the rest. The time saved is
most certainly less than what I would have invested for the test run.
