3 * scripts/GRMLBASE/39-modprobe: Make sure all modprobe configuration
4 files use .conf as filename suffix. [Closes: issue647]
5 * Disable PDiffs by default via /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20pdiffs.
6 * 90-update-alternatives: check for symlinks of iceweasel and

8 * Rework addons handling (make sure to install boot addons independent
9 from bsd4grml which might be disabled).

11 update failsafe bootoption, add GPXE to grub.cf, drop duplicate
12 boot=live from grub.cfg)

14 is running a dirty build and display a warning message.
15 * Check for precense of grub directory and files in templates
16 that we are adjusting on-the-fly and skip non-existing ones
17 so customisation of templates is easier.

32 - Moved /etc/grml/fai/files to /etc/grml/fai/config/files (and
33 /etc/grml/fai/live-initramfs to /etc/grml/fai/config/). This is
34 an important step to use the config space and class concept of
35 FAI in a more decent and cleaner way. Further details in NEWS
36 file. Thanks to Henning Sprang for the initial hint.
37 - Provide buildd as separate Debian package grml-live-buildd.

46 - scripts/GRMLBASE/38-udev: check for presence of config file.
47 - Ignore $EXIT_ON_MISSING_PACKAGES if running a dirty build

102 * Integrate /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/01-packages
103 as package installation validator.
104 * Update sources.list handling:

106 won't need this and the ones that want it know how to enable
107 it. Therefore let's save traffic on the mirrors.
108 - Note usage of GeoIP-selected mirrors.
109 - Add commented examples for DE/AT mirrors.

459 - grml_cleanup_chroot: get rid of /etc/lvm/cache/.cache and
460 /etc/lvm/backup/main as well.
461 - grml_cleanup_chroot: drop the /usr/include/linux checks.
462 - 90-update-alternatives: use wm-ng as default x-window-manager.
464 - Check for existence of $target/etc/apt/important_note.txt before
466 - buildd: drop GRML_LIVE_ARCH but instead use default architecture
468 - Set UTC=no by default. See http://bts.grml.org/grml/issue708 for
469 details. Credits to Ulrich Zehl for debugging. [Closes: issue708]
470 - Improve check for architecture which should be build: if not specified
471 assume a safe default and check this one.
472 - Unify variable default checks, always assume sane defaults.
473 - Always run $SUITE checks, so grml-live repository is used also
474 if suite isn't manually specified.
475 - Detect existence of stage 'boot' using boot/isolinux so grml-live
476 executed with options '-q -B' and empty boot/isolinux works as well.
477 - Introduce $NO_WINDOWS_BINARIES which replaces $WINDOWS_BINARIES so
478 we can improve sanity checks and easify configuration.
479 - Integrate memtest86+ binary so we don't ship old versions from
480 the build host. [Closes: issue717]
481 - Check whether rebuild of ISO is needed even though the ISO exists already.
484 * Debian packaging related changes:
485 - Bump to Standard-Version 3.8.3 (no further changes).

491 - grml-cheatcodes: document bootoption 'nostartx'.
492 - Apply patch from Marc Haber (thanks!) for new grml cheatcodes
493 (new DCS directory feature).
495 * Software related changes:
496 - Add git-email to GRML_FULL (thanks to Joerg Woelke for mentioning).
497 - Add aesfix, aeskeyfind, bios-memimage, chaosreader, ext3grep, fatback,
498 myrescue, pipebench, safecopy, shed and xmount to GRML_FORENSIC. The
499 packages are either already available or should be available soon.
500 - Add scsitools to GRML_MEDIUM.
501 - Drop bar from GRML_FULL (no release since 2007, consider using
502 for example cpipe instead).
503 - Drop grml-saveconfig as it is replaced with recent versions
505 - Drop hydra from GRML_FULL (the license is not a clean GPL one).
506 - Drop icedax from GRML_FULL (we have schilyutils available).
509 * Update MirOS bsd4grml to 20090812 and sync menu.lst, grub.cfg,
510 isolinux.cfg, syslinux.cfg with each other; provide a fallback
511 way to boot MirOS bsd4grml from both GRUB versions using modules.
512 * Fix going back to GNU GRUB from ldbsd.com via alternative boot method;
513 while here, add the grml release info to the appropriate file.

530 nowadays, see #533275).
531 - Drop libpam-pwgen (see #511613).

539 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/40-deborphan.

542 - add cronjob based on what the grml team is using at daily.grml.org

545 * /etc/grml/fai/config/hooks/updatebase.GRMLBASE: install apt configuration
546 also when updating the chroot (this happens if we have a base.tgz available
547 on fresh installations).
548 * Document usage of STOP_ON_ERROR in /etc/grml/fai/fai.conf.
549 * Really add support for genisoimage (thanks for the bugreport, Worf).
550 * Set subdirectories of $OUTPUT independent of cmdline parsing so
551 it is possible to set it via conffile as well.
552 * Validate whether the specified architecture class matches the
553 architecture (option), otherwise installation of kernel will fail.

829 * Drop first, unnecessary APPEND line in isolinux.cfg and syslinux.cfg.
831 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default
832 in grml-autoconfig anyway and this shortens our /proc/cmdline.
833 * Run commands requiring network access through 'timeout 10' by default

845 * Move /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences to /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/.
846 This simplifies the directory layout a bit. Clarify its usage
847 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt
848 * Install all files from /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt. This supports
849 usage of directories like /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. Thanks for the

851 * Replace all "sed -i 's/././' foo" calls with

918 by default (though /usr/share/i18n/locales won't be touched for
919 now), unless using class LOCALES. Reason: We have >70MB inside
920 /usr/share/locale on GRML_FULL, just too much to ship by default,

1471 grml-live (0.0.7) unstable; urgency=low
1473 The "holidays? what? are you joking?!"-release.
1475 * Added FAI patches to /usr/share/grml-live/patches/ - it's
1476 recommended to apply the patches to FAI until they are accepted
1477 upstream. See Debian's BTS for more details: #444210, #447080
1479 * Support option '-u' for updating system.
1480 * Reworked buildd concept.
1481 - Now we have a seperate
1482 /usr/share/grml-live/buildd/functions.sh for generic stuff
1483 and /etc/grml/grml-buildd.conf as configuration file.
1484 - Use grml-buildd.{stdout,stderr} instead of
1485 grml-live.{stdout,stderr} as log files.
1486 - buildd/functions.sh: do not mv files if there was an error
1487 during grml-live execution
1488 - do not re-execute grml-live is the target ISO exists already
1489 * Update zsh completion - thanks to Frank Terbeck!
1490 * Set /etc/grml_version of live-system to the according value.
1492 * Support setting /etc/debian_chroot inside chroot (useful if
1493 building fails and manual interaction is needed).
1494 * Log to /var/log/grml-live.log by default now and support
1495 $ZERO_LOGFILE for cleaning up logs.
1496 * Added new grml-repository named grml-live which is intented
1497 to fix issues from Debian for grml-live builds. It is automatically
1498 activated if you are building against unstable/sid and should
1499 be used manually only if you realy know what you are doing.
1500 Notice: if something fails inside building the base chroot/
1501 debootstrap system we can't do anything via grml-live for you
1502 right now. Instead grab the base.tgz from http://daily.grml.org/
1503 * Add /usr/share/grml-live/scripts/repodiff.pl (by formorer, thx!)
1504 for comparing two repositories.
1505 * Replaced /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/preferences
1506 with /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences so grml-live repository
1507 can be used and configured at a single place.
1508 * Use apt-pinning via /etc/grml/fai/config/hooks/instsoft.GRMLBASE

1512 * Log executed grml-live command line.
1513 * Set FAI_DEBOOTSTRAP_OPTS="--exclude=dhcp-client,info"

1516 * Set shared/default-x-server and xserver-xorg/config/monitor/identifier
1517 for xserver-xorg package via debconf to work around #448863.
1518 * Use "newest" kernel only if two kernels are present in the chroot.
1519 * Set $SECONDS to unknown if $start_seconds is not set.
1520 * Log closing signs (----...) via bailout to make sure they are
1521 always set - even when exiting with an error.
1522 * Check for presence of /bin/zsh before setting default shell in
1523 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/21-usersetup
1524 * Check for locales/localepurge before using them in
1525 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/25-locales
