729 - Provide information about grml-live version and Debian/suite
730 through /etc/grml_live_version in the generated ISO. [Closes: issue637]
731 - New graphical boot menu. Can be disabled via ISOLINUX_METHOD=console.
732 - New configuration variables DISTRI_NAME and DISTRI_INFO which should allow
733 easier rebranding of grml-live based distributions.
734 - Support installation of local files (not being part of any Debian package)
735 through $CHROOT_INSTALL.
736 - Display path of FAI logs during execution of grml-live.
737 - Replace all references to ftp.de.debian.org with cdn.debian.org,
738 see http://wiki.debian.org/DebianGeoMirror for details.
739 Thanks for the idea, Marc Haber!
741 * Bug fixes and improvements:
742 - When adjusting postfix configuration: make sure to execute newaliases
743 command after adjusting configuration, otherwise the old hostname
744 will be left inside /etc/aliases.db.
745 - grml_cleanup_chroot: get rid of /etc/lvm/cache/.cache and
746 /etc/lvm/backup/main as well.
747 - grml_cleanup_chroot: drop the /usr/include/linux checks.
748 - 90-update-alternatives: use wm-ng as default x-window-manager.
750 - Check for existence of $target/etc/apt/important_note.txt before
752 - buildd: drop GRML_LIVE_ARCH but instead use default architecture
754 - Set UTC=no by default. See http://bts.grml.org/grml/issue708 for
755 details. Credits to Ulrich Zehl for debugging. [Closes: issue708]
756 - Improve check for architecture which should be build: if not specified
757 assume a safe default and check this one.
758 - Unify variable default checks, always assume sane defaults.
759 - Always run $SUITE checks, so grml-live repository is used also
760 if suite isn't manually specified.
761 - Detect existence of stage 'boot' using boot/isolinux so grml-live
762 executed with options '-q -B' and empty boot/isolinux works as well.
763 - Introduce $NO_WINDOWS_BINARIES which replaces $WINDOWS_BINARIES so
764 we can improve sanity checks and easify configuration.
765 - Integrate memtest86+ binary so we don't ship old versions from
766 the build host. [Closes: issue717]
767 - Check whether rebuild of ISO is needed even though the ISO exists already.

785 packages are either already available or should be available soon.
786 - Add scsitools to GRML_MEDIUM.

788 for example cpipe instead).
789 - Drop grml-saveconfig as it is replaced with recent versions
791 - Drop hydra from GRML_FULL (the license is not a clean GPL one).
792 - Drop icedax from GRML_FULL (we have schilyutils available).
795 * Update MirOS bsd4grml to 20090812 and sync menu.lst, grub.cfg,
796 isolinux.cfg, syslinux.cfg with each other; provide a fallback
797 way to boot MirOS bsd4grml from both GRUB versions using modules.

835 * Really add support for genisoimage (thanks for the bugreport, Worf).

1117 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default

1133 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt

1783 to fix issues from Debian for grml-live builds. It is automatically
1784 activated if you are building against unstable/sid and should
1785 be used manually only if you realy know what you are doing.

1791 * Replaced /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/preferences
1792 with /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences so grml-live repository
1793 can be used and configured at a single place.
1794 * Use apt-pinning via /etc/grml/fai/config/hooks/instsoft.GRMLBASE

1843 * Use /var/log/fai/dirinstall/${HOSTNAME}/grml-live.log as logfile
1844 for grml-live instead of /var/log/grml-live.log so it's easier
1846 * Update of buildd scripts: main configuration file main.sh
1847 which provides all the build stuff inside separate functions.
1848 * Fall back to blackhole.pca.dfn.de as keyserver if retreiving

1868 * Updated buildd scripts (better subject handling).
1869 * Re-enable 'Acquire::http::Pipeline-Depth' workaround'.
1870 Restore usual Debian behaviour at the end using
1871 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/99-finish-grml-build
1872 * Add new scripts for retreiving bugs via apt-listbugs
1873 and storing package selection inside log directory.
1874 This has been integrated in a new class named "RELEASE".
1875 * Added support for new kernel version 2.6.23-grml to
1877 * Use uxterm as x-terminal-emulator and fall back to xterm
1878 only it uxterm is not available.
1879 * Support /etc/locale.gen.grml - it's used by default in
1880 class GRML_FULL and a new class named LOCALES.
1881 * Work around #443481 (bug inside snort) for Debian etch
1882 via using /etc/snort/snort.common.parameters (thanks for
1883 the idea, Thomas Lange!)

1903 renamed into -o. The option -t now specifies the place where

1906 TEMPLATE_DIRECTORY can be used in /etc/grml/grml-live.conf
1907 * Check for /var/run/fai/FAI_INSTALLATION_IN_PROGRESS and exit then.
1908 * /etc/grml/fai/config/hooks/instsoft.GRMLBASE:
1909 - disable pipeline workaround
1910 - create /dev/MAKEDEV in chroot to work around the
1911 "./MAKEDEV: No such file or directory" problem of some packages
1912 * Use /var/log/grml-live.log as log file as /var/log/fai/* is too
1913 dangerous because of automatic removal of the files/dirs via fai.
1914 * Use class GRML_MEDIUM by default and document GRMLBASE, GRML_* plus
1915 I386/AMD64 classes in the docs.
1916 * Add new packages to GRML_FULL:
1917 - tgt: Linux target framework user-space tools
1918 - paperkey: extract just the secret information out ouf OpenPGP keys
1919 - gitpkg: helper scripts for maintaining packages with git
1920 - iscsitarget: iSCSI Enterprise Target userland tools
1921 - iscsitarget-module-2.6.22-grml: kernel module for iscsitarget

1941 * Improve portability of linux headers cleanup inside
1942 grml_cleanup_chroot.
1943 * Provide class GRML_SMALL and rename old GRML_SMALL into
1945 * Do not install kernel via GRMLBASE but via GRML_* classes
1946 instead so we have only one single kernel on the system
1947 with something like 'GRMLBASE,GRML_SMALL,REMOVE_DOCS,I386'.
1948 * Use grml-live.log as logfile.
