207 configuration variable SQUASHFS_BINARY.

210 build using kernel-package.
211 * templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg: add space char at end of lines in entries
212 that are meant for manual editing (so user just has to press <tab>
214 * Add 'pci=nomsi' to failsafe bootoption (thanks to Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt).

223 grml-live (0.9.21) unstable; urgency=low
228 - Split the single /etc/apt/sources.list file into structured files
229 in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/. We are using:
230 - /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grml.list for all grml related repositories
231 - /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list for official Debian repositories
233 - Provide information about grml-live version and Debian/suite
234 through /etc/grml_live_version in the generated ISO. [Closes: issue637]
235 - New graphical boot menu. Can be disabled via ISOLINUX_METHOD=console.
236 - New configuration variables DISTRI_NAME and DISTRI_INFO which should allow
237 easier rebranding of grml-live based distributions.
238 - Support installation of local files (not being part of any Debian package)
239 through $CHROOT_INSTALL.
240 - Display path of FAI logs during execution of grml-live.
241 - Replace all references to ftp.de.debian.org with cdn.debian.org,
242 see http://wiki.debian.org/DebianGeoMirror for details.
243 Thanks for the idea, Marc Haber!
245 * Bug fixes and improvements:
246 - When adjusting postfix configuration: make sure to execute newaliases
247 command after adjusting configuration, otherwise the old hostname
248 will be left inside /etc/aliases.db.
249 - grml_cleanup_chroot: get rid of /etc/lvm/cache/.cache and
250 /etc/lvm/backup/main as well.
251 - grml_cleanup_chroot: drop the /usr/include/linux checks.
252 - 90-update-alternatives: use wm-ng as default x-window-manager.
254 - Check for existence of $target/etc/apt/important_note.txt before
256 - buildd: drop GRML_LIVE_ARCH but instead use default architecture
258 - Set UTC=no by default. See http://bts.grml.org/grml/issue708 for
259 details. Credits to Ulrich Zehl for debugging. [Closes: issue708]
260 - Improve check for architecture which should be build: if not specified
261 assume a safe default and check this one.
262 - Unify variable default checks, always assume sane defaults.
263 - Always run $SUITE checks, so grml-live repository is used also
264 if suite isn't manually specified.
265 - Detect existence of stage 'boot' using boot/isolinux so grml-live
266 executed with options '-q -B' and empty boot/isolinux works as well.
267 - Introduce $NO_WINDOWS_BINARIES which replaces $WINDOWS_BINARIES so
268 we can improve sanity checks and easify configuration.
269 - Integrate memtest86+ binary so we don't ship old versions from
270 the build host. [Closes: issue717]
271 - Check whether rebuild of ISO is needed even though the ISO exists already.
274 * Debian packaging related changes:
275 - Bump to Standard-Version 3.8.3 (no further changes).
276 - Improve long description.
277 - Update copyright file (make lintian happy).

287 - Add aesfix, aeskeyfind, bios-memimage, chaosreader, ext3grep, fatback,
288 myrescue, pipebench, safecopy, shed and xmount to GRML_FORENSIC. The
289 packages are either already available or should be available soon.
290 - Add scsitools to GRML_MEDIUM.
291 - Drop bar from GRML_FULL (no release since 2007, consider using
292 for example cpipe instead).
293 - Drop grml-saveconfig as it is replaced with recent versions
295 - Drop hydra from GRML_FULL (the license is not a clean GPL one).
296 - Drop icedax from GRML_FULL (we have schilyutils available).
299 * Update MirOS bsd4grml to 20090812 and sync menu.lst, grub.cfg,
300 isolinux.cfg, syslinux.cfg with each other; provide a fallback
301 way to boot MirOS bsd4grml from both GRUB versions using modules.
302 * Fix going back to GNU GRUB from ldbsd.com via alternative boot method;
303 while here, add the grml release info to the appropriate file.

317 - Drop gdk-imlib11 (see #522810).
318 - Drop gqcam (still depends on gtk1.2).
319 - Drop hping2 (hping3 is available in all relevant Debian releases
320 nowadays, see #533275).
321 - Drop libpam-pwgen (see #511613).
322 - Drop rgpsp (owner set to Debian QA Group and package doesn't seem
323 to be that important for grml).
324 - Drop windowlab (see #410618).
325 - Drop workbone (see #429178).
326 * Add check for valid Debian suite name to avoid breakage of sources.list

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

514 * Split package into grml-live and grml-live-addons.
515 Add grml-live-addons to Recommends of package grml-live.
516 Package grml-live-addons provides the templates/boot/addons

600 - drop package tspc (see #462738 and #515193)
601 - replace gqview with geeqie (thanks, Spida)
602 * Changes in GRML_MEDIUM:

605 - add mc (on request by Christian Kuehlborn)
606 * Document noautoconfig in grml-cheatcodes. Thanks to Ralf Moll!
608 - rename all etch* related scripts to lenny*
609 - adjust scripts to use "lenny" instead of "stable" for building
610 [to avoid that "etch" is used as build name but lenny is used]
611 - use "$NAME-daily-$SUITE" in functions.sh as build name so
612 identifying ISOs while running them is easier
613 * Support squeeze as valid suite name.
614 * Comment Debian/unstable in /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences by default.
615 This should avoid issues with something like
616 'apt-get -t experimental ...'
617 * Consequently drop 'Latest change' lines from all files.
618 * Support generation of sha1sum [Testing: issue622]
619 * Drop first, unnecessary APPEND line in isolinux.cfg and syslinux.cfg.
621 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default
622 in grml-autoconfig anyway and this shortens our /proc/cmdline.
623 * Run commands requiring network access through 'timeout 10' by default
624 if possible. [Closes: issue396]
625 * Do not use build server's hostname for /etc/mailname and
626 /etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf. [Testing: issue412]
627 * Add "forensic" to the append line when using the forensic kerneloption
628 so we can grep for it in any case.
629 * 15-initsetup: keep a backup of the original runlevel.conf file.
630 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the idea! [Closes: issue570]
631 * instsoft.GRMLBASE: support installation of multiple gpg keys
632 via /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/*.key
633 * isolinux.cfg/syslinux.cfg: Drop duplicated 'MENU DEFAULT'.
634 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the bugreport!
635 * Move /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences to /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/.
636 This simplifies the directory layout a bit. Clarify its usage
637 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt
638 * Install all files from /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt. This supports
639 usage of directories like /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. Thanks for the
640 hint to Thomas Lehmann. [Closes: issue632]
641 * Replace all "sed -i 's/././' foo" calls with
642 'sed -i 's/././' foo | sponge foo' instead inside main grml-live script
643 so we don't destroy any existing symlinks. Depend on moreutils therefor.
645 * Integrate bsd4grml [hash: 987ce9a6f9ce205ba64794ed3fcac603]. This
646 provides MirBSD as bootoption 'bsd' at grml's bootprompt. Thanks to
647 Thorsten "mirabilos" Glaser for his work! Add support for
648 configuring NO_ADDONS_BSD4GRML via configuration file.

650 update docs regarding the file.
651 * If specified SUITE is unstable use 'sid' instead (to avoid breakages

704 * Remove mozilla-imagezoom from GRML_FULL (the "extension installed"
705 * Execute dpkg-reconfigure for localepurge with noninteractive frontend.
707 * Rework locale handling. From now on /usr/share/locale gets removed
708 by default (though /usr/share/i18n/locales won't be touched for
709 now), unless using class LOCALES. Reason: We have >70MB inside
710 /usr/share/locale on GRML_FULL, just too much to ship by default,
711 message at startup sucks).
712 * Update grml-cheatcodes.txt.
713 * Provide grml's gpg key via /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/grml.key
714 so we support offline operation as well. Based on an idea by
715 Thomas Lehmann, thanks!
716 * Generate ISO with volume label "${GRML_NAME} ${VERSION}" instead of
717 "grml $VERSION" so we propagate the according grml-name. Thanks to

889 * Make sure we use ${GRML_NAME}.squashfs instead of hardcoded
891 * Update bootsplashes to current implementation, based on
892 live-initramfs and grml-autoconfig.
893 * Get rid of gnu-fdisk in GRML_FULL (it's causing just too many
894 headaches, see #461888, #463720 and #445304 for example).
895 * Add sshfs to GRML_MEDIUM.

910 - rt73-module-2.6.23-grml
911 * Finally fixed the "isolinux does not boot on old hardware" problem.
912 The problem was a too big boot/isolinux directory. Thanks a lot
913 for all the testing to Andrea Mayr and Wernfried Haas!
914 - use /boot/addons/* for allinone.img, balder10.imz, chain.c32,
916 - place $GRML_NAME in /boot/$GRML_NAME/ - this should easify
917 support of several grml flavours on one single usb pen for the future
918 - adjust grub's menu.lst and isolinux.cfg as well as grml-live itself
919 for new directory layout
920 * Make sure $GRML_NAME does not contain known problematic characters.

1288 activated if you are building against unstable/sid and should
1289 be used manually only if you realy know what you are doing.

1357 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/21-usersetup
1358 * Add new packages to GRML_FULL:
1359 - ghostscript (and get rid of gs, gs-common, gs-esp)

1364 grml-live (0.0.5) unstable; urgency=low
1366 * Add new scripts to /usr/share/grml-live/examples/buildd/:
1367 - grml-live_autobuild_grml-small_etch.sh
1368 - grml-live_autobuild_grml-small_sid.sh
1369 - grml-live_autobuild_grml64-small_etch.sh
1370 - grml-live_autobuild_grml64-small_sid.sh
1371 * Some more FAI error checking.
1372 * Updated buildd scripts (better subject handling).
1373 * Re-enable 'Acquire::http::Pipeline-Depth' workaround'.
1374 Restore usual Debian behaviour at the end using
1375 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/99-finish-grml-build
1376 * Add new scripts for retreiving bugs via apt-listbugs
1377 and storing package selection inside log directory.
1378 This has been integrated in a new class named "RELEASE".
1379 * Added support for new kernel version 2.6.23-grml to
1381 * Use uxterm as x-terminal-emulator and fall back to xterm
1382 only it uxterm is not available.
1383 * Support /etc/locale.gen.grml - it's used by default in
1384 class GRML_FULL and a new class named LOCALES.
1385 * Work around #443481 (bug inside snort) for Debian etch
1386 via using /etc/snort/snort.common.parameters (thanks for
1387 the idea, Thomas Lange!)
1388 * Do not exit with an error code if /usr/include/linux is NOT
1389 a symlink to /usr/src/linux/include/linux but keep it as
1391 * Log executed grml-live command.
1392 * Re-enable problematic packages that have been fixed:
1393 - apt-listbugs (fixed via manual interaction in scripts)
1394 - gsm-utils (#353967)
1396 - wvdial (fixed via debconf)
1397 * Add new packages to GRML_FULL:

1404 grml-live (0.0.4) unstable; urgency=low
1406 * The -t option for specifying the output directory has been
1407 renamed into -o. The option -t now specifies the place where
1408 templates for building the ISO can be found.
1409 * Option -t can be used for specifying the template directory.
1410 TEMPLATE_DIRECTORY can be used in /etc/grml/grml-live.conf
1411 * Check for /var/run/fai/FAI_INSTALLATION_IN_PROGRESS and exit then.
1412 * /etc/grml/fai/config/hooks/instsoft.GRMLBASE:
1413 - disable pipeline workaround
1414 - create /dev/MAKEDEV in chroot to work around the
1415 "./MAKEDEV: No such file or directory" problem of some packages
1416 * Use /var/log/grml-live.log as log file as /var/log/fai/* is too
1417 dangerous because of automatic removal of the files/dirs via fai.
1418 * Use class GRML_MEDIUM by default and document GRMLBASE, GRML_* plus
1419 I386/AMD64 classes in the docs.
1420 * Add new packages to GRML_FULL:
1421 - tgt: Linux target framework user-space tools
1422 - paperkey: extract just the secret information out ouf OpenPGP keys
1423 - gitpkg: helper scripts for maintaining packages with git
1424 - iscsitarget: iSCSI Enterprise Target userland tools
1425 - iscsitarget-module-2.6.22-grml: kernel module for iscsitarget
1426 * Set $HOSTNAME to according hostname via
1427 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/34-hosts
1428 * Adjust filename in header of /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/*.
1429 * Use iceweasel/firefox as x-www-browser and w3m as www-browser (if
1431 * Check for presence of the initrd.
1432 * Improve adjustment of suite for $FAI_DEBOOTSTRAP.
1433 * Add /usr/share/grml-live/examples/buildd/

1437 grml-live (0.0.3) unstable; urgency=low
1439 * Support for setting GRML_NAME (like grml vs. grml-small
1441 * Drop the character limits of $VERSION and $RELEASENAME.
1442 * Make sure $SECONDS is set before outputting the runtime.
1443 * Unify usage of i386_files, place all template files in
1444 directory templates now.
1445 * Improve portability of linux headers cleanup inside
1446 grml_cleanup_chroot.
1447 * Provide class GRML_SMALL and rename old GRML_SMALL into
1449 * Do not install kernel via GRMLBASE but via GRML_* classes
1450 instead so we have only one single kernel on the system
1451 with something like 'GRMLBASE,GRML_SMALL,REMOVE_DOCS,I386'.
1452 * Use grml-live.log as logfile.
1453 * Added vim to GRML_MEDIUM package list.
