816 * Update documentation regarding syslinux and FAT32 (thanks to
817 Stefan Traby <stefan@hello-penguin.com> for the hint).
818 * Changes with regards to Ulrich's work:
819 - Add a check to identify old ISOs which do not ship
820 a default.cfg file and abort then. We have to break
821 backward compatibility, otherwise the isolinux/syslinux
822 code would become worse than it's already nowadays.
823 - Search for isolinux files in /boot/isolinux/ so the
824 correct grml.png is used.
825 - Support setting bootoptions in syslinux.cfg
826 * Drop duplicated boot=live references in kernel cmdline.
827 * Apply patch from Thorsten Glaser which prepares code for
829 * Raise CriticalException if filesystem.module, kernel or
830 initrd are not present.
831 * Avoid the "file is read only, overwrite anyway (y/n) ?"
832 question of mtools by syslinux.
833 * Inform user when using grub as bootloader.
834 * Make syslinux the default bootloader (drop --syslinux,
835 add --grub instead). Grub fails just too often.

856 directory so /usr/share/grml2usb isn't necessarily needed.
857 Thanks for the patch to Alexander 'Leo' Bergolth <leo@strike.wu.ac.at>!
858 * Make sure grub.conf isn't a symlink but a plain file instead,
859 otherwise it will break on FAT16 filesystems. This works around
860 grub-install of (at least) Fedora 10.
861 Thanks for the patch to Alexander 'Leo' Bergolth <leo@strike.wu.ac.at>!
862 * Use 'pci=nomsi' in failsafe bootoption. Thanks to Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt.
863 * Mention the --syslinux option if grub-install fails.
864 * Fix usage of --force in combination with --fat16. Thanks to
865 Johannes Endres and Reiko Kaps for the bugreport.

868 of installation into a partition (PBR) which is necessary when using grub2.

874 * Use ascii.pf2 as grub2 font, since grub2 (1.96+20090307-1)
875 the old ascii.pff isn't available anymore.
876 * Use terminal_output if available, otherwise fallback to old
877 older 'terminal'-command (thanks to Felix Zielcke for helping).
878 * Document the 'grub-setup fails after Attempting to install GRUB
879 to a partition instead of the MBR' issue.
880 * Use "set gfxpayload=1024x768x16,1024x768" instead of vga=791 in
881 grub2 configuration. This requires a recent version of the linux
882 loader as the new linux loader loads the kernel at 32bit entry point
883 and not at 16 bit anymore so it has to be translated for the Linux
884 kernel (as the kernel parses vga= in 16 bit code). In the long run
885 we don't seem to have another option, so let's change it.
886 Thanks to Felix Zielcke and Robert Millan for first hand information.
887 * Increase timeout from 5 to 10 seconds in grub2 configuration.
888 * Load memtest86+ binary via 'linux16' in grub2 (otherwise it fails).
889 * Drop the serial boot entry from grub2 (I assume users with usb
890 pens don't need that option).
891 * Change the way MirOS bsd4grml is loaded (use the fallback method
893 * Improve descriptions of grml's grub2 entries.
894 * Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.3 (no further changes).
895 * Fix creation and installation of grub1's configuration file (menu.lst).
896 Thanks to Mario 'BitKoenig' Holbe.

904 matter which bootloader the users chooses.
905 * Added options --skip-syslinux-config and --skip-grub-config
906 if someone wants to skip the generation of any bootloader
908 * Make sure grub-install is available before executing it.
909 * Display information about default grml flavour and the other
910 available grml flavours at the end of the grml2usb run.
911 * Use /sbin/blkid (e2fsprogs) instead of vol_id as vol_id is going to be
912 removed from udev. Thanks for the patch to Andras Korn!
