554 * Apply patch from Thorsten Glaser which prepares code for
556 * Raise CriticalException if filesystem.module, kernel or
557 initrd are not present.
558 * Avoid the "file is read only, overwrite anyway (y/n) ?"
559 question of mtools by syslinux.
560 * Inform user when using grub as bootloader.
561 * Make syslinux the default bootloader (drop --syslinux,
562 add --grub instead). Grub fails just too often.

582 * Support the directory where the grml2usb script resides as base
583 directory so /usr/share/grml2usb isn't necessarily needed.
584 Thanks for the patch to Alexander 'Leo' Bergolth <leo@strike.wu.ac.at>!
585 * Make sure grub.conf isn't a symlink but a plain file instead,
586 otherwise it will break on FAT16 filesystems. This works around
587 grub-install of (at least) Fedora 10.
588 Thanks for the patch to Alexander 'Leo' Bergolth <leo@strike.wu.ac.at>!
589 * Use 'pci=nomsi' in failsafe bootoption. Thanks to Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt.
590 * Mention the --syslinux option if grub-install fails.
591 * Fix usage of --force in combination with --fat16. Thanks to
592 Johannes Endres and Reiko Kaps for the bugreport.
593 * Replace hint to '--grub' with 'grub'.
594 * New option --grub-mbr which allows installation of grub in MBR instead
595 of installation into a partition (PBR) which is necessary when using grub2.

601 * Use ascii.pf2 as grub2 font, since grub2 (1.96+20090307-1)
602 the old ascii.pff isn't available anymore.
603 * Use terminal_output if available, otherwise fallback to old
604 older 'terminal'-command (thanks to Felix Zielcke for helping).
605 * Document the 'grub-setup fails after Attempting to install GRUB
606 to a partition instead of the MBR' issue.
607 * Use "set gfxpayload=1024x768x16,1024x768" instead of vga=791 in
608 grub2 configuration. This requires a recent version of the linux
609 loader as the new linux loader loads the kernel at 32bit entry point
610 and not at 16 bit anymore so it has to be translated for the Linux
611 kernel (as the kernel parses vga= in 16 bit code). In the long run
612 we don't seem to have another option, so let's change it.
613 Thanks to Felix Zielcke and Robert Millan for first hand information.
614 * Increase timeout from 5 to 10 seconds in grub2 configuration.
615 * Load memtest86+ binary via 'linux16' in grub2 (otherwise it fails).
616 * Drop the serial boot entry from grub2 (I assume users with usb
617 pens don't need that option).
618 * Change the way MirOS bsd4grml is loaded (use the fallback method
620 * Improve descriptions of grml's grub2 entries.
621 * Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.3 (no further changes).
622 * Fix creation and installation of grub1's configuration file (menu.lst).

632 * Added options --skip-syslinux-config and --skip-grub-config
633 if someone wants to skip the generation of any bootloader
635 * Make sure grub-install is available before executing it.
636 * Display information about default grml flavour and the other
637 available grml flavours at the end of the grml2usb run.
638 * Use /sbin/blkid (e2fsprogs) instead of vol_id as vol_id is going to be
639 removed from udev. Thanks for the patch to Andras Korn!
640 * Use rsync instead of cp. Thanks for the patch to Andras Korn!
642 * Use 'forensic' and 'readonly' in the forensic bootoption itself.
643 * Spelling fixes (thanks to Thorsten Glaser <tg@mirbsd.org>).
644 * Write GRUB2 config even if the target is a directory (thanks, Thorsten)
645 * All these "set root=" are not needed for GRUB2 (thanks, Thorsten)
646 * Switch order of check whether the specified device is a directory
647 and check for usb device (as the usb device check will fail if
649 * Add grml2iso for creating a bootable DVD:
650 - thanks once more to Thorsten Glaser for helping and patches
651 - thanks to Ernesto Domato for reporting the issue regarding
652 i386<->amd64 with grub-mkimage
653 * Move syslinux check to install_syslinux_mbr()
654 * Drop the reference to --grub option (thanks for the bugreport
656 * Update documentation:
657 - mention the dd approach

660 - add 'grub-probe: error: unknown filesystem'
661 * Support use with python version 2.4.

692 * Catch exception if copying files fails.
