153 * Do not use /etc/grml_version but instead use /etc/debian_version
154 as check whether the chroot exists. If grml-live execution
155 itself succeded but was interrupted during task_configure it should
156 be fine to re-run grml-live with -u/-b options.

167 configuration variable SQUASHFS_BINARY.
168 * Modify update-initramfs call in grml-live script as the
169 'update-initramfs -u -t' might fail with linux images which have been
170 build using kernel-package.
171 * templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg: add space char at end of lines in entries
172 that are meant for manual editing (so user just has to press <tab>
174 * Add 'pci=nomsi' to failsafe bootoption (thanks to Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt).

183 grml-live (0.9.21) unstable; urgency=low
188 - Split the single /etc/apt/sources.list file into structured files
189 in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/. We are using:
190 - /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grml.list for all grml related repositories
191 - /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list for official Debian repositories
193 - Provide information about grml-live version and Debian/suite
194 through /etc/grml_live_version in the generated ISO. [Closes: issue637]
195 - New graphical boot menu. Can be disabled via ISOLINUX_METHOD=console.
196 - New configuration variables DISTRI_NAME and DISTRI_INFO which should allow
197 easier rebranding of grml-live based distributions.
198 - Support installation of local files (not being part of any Debian package)
199 through $CHROOT_INSTALL.
200 - Display path of FAI logs during execution of grml-live.
201 - Replace all references to ftp.de.debian.org with cdn.debian.org,
202 see http://wiki.debian.org/DebianGeoMirror for details.
203 Thanks for the idea, Marc Haber!
205 * Bug fixes and improvements:
206 - When adjusting postfix configuration: make sure to execute newaliases
207 command after adjusting configuration, otherwise the old hostname
208 will be left inside /etc/aliases.db.
209 - grml_cleanup_chroot: get rid of /etc/lvm/cache/.cache and
210 /etc/lvm/backup/main as well.
211 - grml_cleanup_chroot: drop the /usr/include/linux checks.
212 - 90-update-alternatives: use wm-ng as default x-window-manager.
214 - Check for existence of $target/etc/apt/important_note.txt before
216 - buildd: drop GRML_LIVE_ARCH but instead use default architecture
218 - Set UTC=no by default. See http://bts.grml.org/grml/issue708 for
219 details. Credits to Ulrich Zehl for debugging. [Closes: issue708]
220 - Improve check for architecture which should be build: if not specified
221 assume a safe default and check this one.
222 - Unify variable default checks, always assume sane defaults.
223 - Always run $SUITE checks, so grml-live repository is used also
224 if suite isn't manually specified.
225 - Detect existence of stage 'boot' using boot/isolinux so grml-live
226 executed with options '-q -B' and empty boot/isolinux works as well.
227 - Introduce $NO_WINDOWS_BINARIES which replaces $WINDOWS_BINARIES so
228 we can improve sanity checks and easify configuration.
229 - Integrate memtest86+ binary so we don't ship old versions from
230 the build host. [Closes: issue717]
231 - Check whether rebuild of ISO is needed even though the ISO exists already.
234 * Debian packaging related changes:
235 - Bump to Standard-Version 3.8.3 (no further changes).
236 - Improve long description.
237 - Update copyright file (make lintian happy).
238 - Register grml-live html docs using doc-base.

247 - Add aesfix, aeskeyfind, bios-memimage, chaosreader, ext3grep, fatback,
248 myrescue, pipebench, safecopy, shed and xmount to GRML_FORENSIC. The
249 packages are either already available or should be available soon.
250 - Add scsitools to GRML_MEDIUM.
251 - Drop bar from GRML_FULL (no release since 2007, consider using
252 for example cpipe instead).
253 - Drop grml-saveconfig as it is replaced with recent versions
255 - Drop hydra from GRML_FULL (the license is not a clean GPL one).
256 - Drop icedax from GRML_FULL (we have schilyutils available).
259 * Update MirOS bsd4grml to 20090812 and sync menu.lst, grub.cfg,
260 isolinux.cfg, syslinux.cfg with each other; provide a fallback
261 way to boot MirOS bsd4grml from both GRUB versions using modules.

263 while here, add the grml release info to the appropriate file.

280 nowadays, see #533275).
281 - Drop libpam-pwgen (see #511613).
282 - Drop rgpsp (owner set to Debian QA Group and package doesn't seem
283 to be that important for grml).
284 - Drop windowlab (see #410618).

286 * Add check for valid Debian suite name to avoid breakage of sources.list

292 - add cronjob based on what the grml team is using at daily.grml.org
293 - use '-a' instead of '-rltD' as rsync option to sync logs
294 - use timestamp with hour, minute and second to match with FAI style
295 * /etc/grml/fai/config/hooks/updatebase.GRMLBASE: install apt configuration
296 also when updating the chroot (this happens if we have a base.tgz available
297 on fresh installations).
298 * Document usage of STOP_ON_ERROR in /etc/grml/fai/fai.conf.
299 * Really add support for genisoimage (thanks for the bugreport, Worf).
300 * Set subdirectories of $OUTPUT independent of cmdline parsing so
301 it is possible to set it via conffile as well.
302 * Validate whether the specified architecture class matches the
303 architecture (option), otherwise installation of kernel will fail.
304 * Add 'How do I deploy grml-live on a plain Debian installation' to FAQ.
305 * Build grml-live documentation with table of content.

472 grml-live (0.9.13) unstable; urgency=low
474 * Split package into grml-live and grml-live-addons.
475 Add grml-live-addons to Recommends of package grml-live.
476 Package grml-live-addons provides the templates/boot/addons
477 files that require >7MB of disk space overall so we don't

560 - drop package tspc (see #462738 and #515193)
561 - replace gqview with geeqie (thanks, Spida)
562 * Changes in GRML_MEDIUM:

565 - add mc (on request by Christian Kuehlborn)
566 * Document noautoconfig in grml-cheatcodes. Thanks to Ralf Moll!
568 - rename all etch* related scripts to lenny*
569 - adjust scripts to use "lenny" instead of "stable" for building
570 [to avoid that "etch" is used as build name but lenny is used]
571 - use "$NAME-daily-$SUITE" in functions.sh as build name so
572 identifying ISOs while running them is easier
573 * Support squeeze as valid suite name.
574 * Comment Debian/unstable in /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences by default.
575 This should avoid issues with something like
576 'apt-get -t experimental ...'
577 * Consequently drop 'Latest change' lines from all files.
578 * Support generation of sha1sum [Testing: issue622]
579 * Drop first, unnecessary APPEND line in isolinux.cfg and syslinux.cfg.
581 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default
582 in grml-autoconfig anyway and this shortens our /proc/cmdline.
583 * Run commands requiring network access through 'timeout 10' by default
584 if possible. [Closes: issue396]
585 * Do not use build server's hostname for /etc/mailname and
586 /etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf. [Testing: issue412]
587 * Add "forensic" to the append line when using the forensic kerneloption
588 so we can grep for it in any case.
589 * 15-initsetup: keep a backup of the original runlevel.conf file.
590 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the idea! [Closes: issue570]

592 via /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/*.key
593 * isolinux.cfg/syslinux.cfg: Drop duplicated 'MENU DEFAULT'.
594 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the bugreport!
595 * Move /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences to /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/.
596 This simplifies the directory layout a bit. Clarify its usage
597 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt
598 * Install all files from /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt. This supports
599 usage of directories like /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. Thanks for the
600 hint to Thomas Lehmann. [Closes: issue632]
601 * Replace all "sed -i 's/././' foo" calls with
602 'sed -i 's/././' foo | sponge foo' instead inside main grml-live script
603 so we don't destroy any existing symlinks. Depend on moreutils therefor.
605 * Integrate bsd4grml [hash: 987ce9a6f9ce205ba64794ed3fcac603]. This
606 provides MirBSD as bootoption 'bsd' at grml's bootprompt. Thanks to
607 Thorsten "mirabilos" Glaser for his work! Add support for
608 configuring NO_ADDONS_BSD4GRML via configuration file.
609 * Add informational header to /etc/grml/fai/apt/sources.list and
610 update docs regarding the file.
611 * If specified SUITE is unstable use 'sid' instead (to avoid breakages

1352 * Re-enable problematic packages that have been fixed:
1353 - apt-listbugs (fixed via manual interaction in scripts)

1364 grml-live (0.0.4) unstable; urgency=low
1366 * The -t option for specifying the output directory has been
1367 renamed into -o. The option -t now specifies the place where
1368 templates for building the ISO can be found.
1369 * Option -t can be used for specifying the template directory.
1370 TEMPLATE_DIRECTORY can be used in /etc/grml/grml-live.conf
1371 * Check for /var/run/fai/FAI_INSTALLATION_IN_PROGRESS and exit then.
1372 * /etc/grml/fai/config/hooks/instsoft.GRMLBASE:
1373 - disable pipeline workaround
1374 - create /dev/MAKEDEV in chroot to work around the
1375 "./MAKEDEV: No such file or directory" problem of some packages
1376 * Use /var/log/grml-live.log as log file as /var/log/fai/* is too
1377 dangerous because of automatic removal of the files/dirs via fai.
1378 * Use class GRML_MEDIUM by default and document GRMLBASE, GRML_* plus
1379 I386/AMD64 classes in the docs.
1380 * Add new packages to GRML_FULL:
1381 - tgt: Linux target framework user-space tools
1382 - paperkey: extract just the secret information out ouf OpenPGP keys
1383 - gitpkg: helper scripts for maintaining packages with git
1384 - iscsitarget: iSCSI Enterprise Target userland tools
1385 - iscsitarget-module-2.6.22-grml: kernel module for iscsitarget
1386 * Set $HOSTNAME to according hostname via
1387 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/34-hosts
1388 * Adjust filename in header of /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/*.
1389 * Use iceweasel/firefox as x-www-browser and w3m as www-browser (if
1391 * Check for presence of the initrd.
1392 * Improve adjustment of suite for $FAI_DEBOOTSTRAP.

1399 * Support for setting GRML_NAME (like grml vs. grml-small
1401 * Drop the character limits of $VERSION and $RELEASENAME.
1402 * Make sure $SECONDS is set before outputting the runtime.
1403 * Unify usage of i386_files, place all template files in
1404 directory templates now.
1405 * Improve portability of linux headers cleanup inside
1406 grml_cleanup_chroot.
1407 * Provide class GRML_SMALL and rename old GRML_SMALL into
1409 * Do not install kernel via GRMLBASE but via GRML_* classes
1410 instead so we have only one single kernel on the system
1411 with something like 'GRMLBASE,GRML_SMALL,REMOVE_DOCS,I386'.
1412 * Use grml-live.log as logfile.
1413 * Added vim to GRML_MEDIUM package list.
