3 * Software related changes:
4 - GRML_SMALL, GRML_MEDIUM and GRML_FULL: switch from kernel
5 2.6.28-grml[64] to 2.6.31-grml[64].
6 - Drop replicator from GRML_FULL (orphaned, see #474131).
7 - Drop rt2400-modules-2.6.31-grml, rt2500-modules-2.6.31-grml and
8 rt73-modules-2.6.31-grml from GRML_MEDIUM.
9 - Drop rt2400-modules-2.6.31-grml, rt73-modules-2.6.31-grml and
10 rt2400-modules-2.6.31-grml64 from GRML_FULL.
11 - Drop version specific dependency on -mysql-client-5.0.
12 - Add iw to GRMLBASE. Thanks to Christian Hofstaedtler for the hint.
13 - Add guymager to GRML_FORENSIC.
14 * Add backwards compatibility check for old sources.list layout

16 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/33-aptsetup
17 * Assume 'lenny' as default SUITE instead of 'stable' as
18 debootstrap doesn't know how to handle 'stable'.
19 Thanks to Ulrich Dangel.

28 * Send 'Find FAI build logs at' message to grml-live.log as well.
29 * Software related changes:
30 - Add comgt to GRML_FULL.
31 - Add fatattr to GRML_FULL.
32 - Add libsmbios-bin to GRML_FULL (thanks to Christian Bricart).
33 - Add qla-tools to GRML_FULL.
34 - Add xmount to GRML_FULL.
35 - Drop edac-utils from GRML_FULL (it's in a bad shape within Debian).
36 - Drop deprecated firmware-ipw3945 + ipw3945d from GRML_SMALL,
37 GRML_MEDIUM and GRML_FULL.
38 - Drop lanmap (abandonned upstream, see #542376).
39 - Move dmidecode from GRML_SMALL, GRML_MEDIUM and GRML_FULL to GRMLBASE.
40 - Replace nessusclient, nessusd and nessus-plugins with
41 openvas-client and openvas-server in GRML_FULL.
42 * Do not use /etc/grml_version but instead use /etc/debian_version
43 as check whether the chroot exists. If grml-live execution
44 itself succeded but was interrupted during task_configure it should
45 be fine to re-run grml-live with -u/-b options.
46 * Fix usage of exclude option in $SQUASHFS_OPTIONS.
47 * Always remove temporary squashfs stderr file.
48 * Fix usage of /etc/runlevel.conf in 15-initsetup.
49 * Add wicd configuration to /etc/grml/fai/config/debconf/GRMLBASE.
50 * Temporarly move /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grml.list in instsoft.GRMLBASE
51 to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grml.unused and restore in 33-aptsetup
52 again then. This should should prevent us from duplicated sources
54 * New cmdline option: "-n" skips generation of the ISO file.
55 * Introduce support for squashfs-lzma-tools 4.0-1 and support
56 configuration variable SQUASHFS_BINARY.
57 * Modify update-initramfs call in grml-live script as the
58 'update-initramfs -u -t' might fail with linux images which have been
59 build using kernel-package.
60 * templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg: add space char at end of lines in entries
61 that are meant for manual editing (so user just has to press <tab>
63 * Add 'pci=nomsi' to failsafe bootoption (thanks to Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt).
64 * Fix grml2usb bootoption in templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg.
65 * Display "Finished execution of stage 'WINDOWS_BINARIES'" only if the
66 according code has been executed (and do not display if skipping).
67 * Completely remove /lib/modules/${KERNEL}/kernel/drivers/isdn/hisax on
68 grml-small as there will be unresolved symbols without hisax.ko.

72 grml-live (0.9.21) unstable; urgency=low
77 - Split the single /etc/apt/sources.list file into structured files
78 in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/. We are using:
79 - /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grml.list for all grml related repositories
80 - /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list for official Debian repositories
82 - Provide information about grml-live version and Debian/suite
83 through /etc/grml_live_version in the generated ISO. [Closes: issue637]
84 - New graphical boot menu. Can be disabled via ISOLINUX_METHOD=console.
85 - New configuration variables DISTRI_NAME and DISTRI_INFO which should allow
86 easier rebranding of grml-live based distributions.
87 - Support installation of local files (not being part of any Debian package)
88 through $CHROOT_INSTALL.
89 - Display path of FAI logs during execution of grml-live.
90 - Replace all references to ftp.de.debian.org with cdn.debian.org,
91 see http://wiki.debian.org/DebianGeoMirror for details.
92 Thanks for the idea, Marc Haber!
94 * Bug fixes and improvements:
95 - When adjusting postfix configuration: make sure to execute newaliases
96 command after adjusting configuration, otherwise the old hostname
97 will be left inside /etc/aliases.db.
98 - grml_cleanup_chroot: get rid of /etc/lvm/cache/.cache and
99 /etc/lvm/backup/main as well.
100 - grml_cleanup_chroot: drop the /usr/include/linux checks.
101 - 90-update-alternatives: use wm-ng as default x-window-manager.
103 - Check for existence of $target/etc/apt/important_note.txt before
105 - buildd: drop GRML_LIVE_ARCH but instead use default architecture
107 - Set UTC=no by default. See http://bts.grml.org/grml/issue708 for
108 details. Credits to Ulrich Zehl for debugging. [Closes: issue708]
109 - Improve check for architecture which should be build: if not specified
110 assume a safe default and check this one.
111 - Unify variable default checks, always assume sane defaults.
112 - Always run $SUITE checks, so grml-live repository is used also
113 if suite isn't manually specified.
114 - Detect existence of stage 'boot' using boot/isolinux so grml-live
115 executed with options '-q -B' and empty boot/isolinux works as well.
116 - Introduce $NO_WINDOWS_BINARIES which replaces $WINDOWS_BINARIES so
117 we can improve sanity checks and easify configuration.
118 - Integrate memtest86+ binary so we don't ship old versions from
119 the build host. [Closes: issue717]
120 - Check whether rebuild of ISO is needed even though the ISO exists already.
123 * Debian packaging related changes:
124 - Bump to Standard-Version 3.8.3 (no further changes).
125 - Improve long description.
126 - Update copyright file (make lintian happy).
127 - Register grml-live html docs using doc-base.
130 - grml-cheatcodes: document bootoption 'nostartx'.
131 - Apply patch from Marc Haber (thanks!) for new grml cheatcodes
132 (new DCS directory feature).
134 * Software related changes:
135 - Add git-email to GRML_FULL (thanks to Joerg Woelke for mentioning).
136 - Add aesfix, aeskeyfind, bios-memimage, chaosreader, ext3grep, fatback,
137 myrescue, pipebench, safecopy, shed and xmount to GRML_FORENSIC. The
138 packages are either already available or should be available soon.
139 - Add scsitools to GRML_MEDIUM.
140 - Drop bar from GRML_FULL (no release since 2007, consider using
141 for example cpipe instead).
142 - Drop grml-saveconfig as it is replaced with recent versions
144 - Drop hydra from GRML_FULL (the license is not a clean GPL one).
145 - Drop icedax from GRML_FULL (we have schilyutils available).
148 * Update MirOS bsd4grml to 20090812 and sync menu.lst, grub.cfg,
149 isolinux.cfg, syslinux.cfg with each other; provide a fallback
150 way to boot MirOS bsd4grml from both GRUB versions using modules.
151 * Fix going back to GNU GRUB from ldbsd.com via alternative boot method;
152 while here, add the grml release info to the appropriate file.

158 * Add gnupg2 to GRML_FULL. Thanks to Walter Haidinger.
159 * Drop all references to xserver-xorg-input-elo2300 (see #527699).
160 * Cleanups in GRML_FULL:
161 - Drop cheops (depends on libgtk1.2).
162 - Drop dviutils ("Note: selecting "texlive-extra-utils" instead of the

164 - Drop ext2resize (see #400797).
165 - Drop fcoretools (see #534542).
166 - Drop gdk-imlib11 (see #522810).
167 - Drop gqcam (still depends on gtk1.2).

169 nowadays, see #533275).
170 - Drop libpam-pwgen (see #511613).
171 - Drop rgpsp (owner set to Debian QA Group and package doesn't seem
172 to be that important for grml).
173 - Drop windowlab (see #410618).
174 - Drop workbone (see #429178).
175 * Add check for valid Debian suite name to avoid breakage of sources.list

178 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/40-deborphan.
180 - add support for building squeeze based ISOs.
181 - add cronjob based on what the grml team is using at daily.grml.org
182 - use '-a' instead of '-rltD' as rsync option to sync logs
183 - use timestamp with hour, minute and second to match with FAI style
184 * /etc/grml/fai/config/hooks/updatebase.GRMLBASE: install apt configuration
185 also when updating the chroot (this happens if we have a base.tgz available
186 on fresh installations).
187 * Document usage of STOP_ON_ERROR in /etc/grml/fai/fai.conf.
188 * Really add support for genisoimage (thanks for the bugreport, Worf).
189 * Set subdirectories of $OUTPUT independent of cmdline parsing so
190 it is possible to set it via conffile as well.
191 * Validate whether the specified architecture class matches the
192 architecture (option), otherwise installation of kernel will fail.
193 * Add 'How do I deploy grml-live on a plain Debian installation' to FAQ.
194 * Build grml-live documentation with table of content.

432 Otherwise with something like 'grml64-medium-daily-squeeze 20090223'
434 "mkisofs: Volume ID string too long (cur. XX max. 32 chars)."
435 - add buildd/execute.sh to further simplify buildd/*.sh setup
436 - send_mail(): do not append /var/log/grml-buildd.stdout by default
437 - add shebang line to buildd/[execute|functions].sh to make lintian happy
438 * Replace placeholder %GRML_NAME_SQUASHFS% with according value in
439 bootsplash f5. [Closes: issue619]

445 grml-live (0.9.9) unstable; urgency=low
447 * Update to kernel 2.6.28-grml[64].
448 * Changes in GRML_FULL:
449 - drop package tspc (see #462738 and #515193)
450 - replace gqview with geeqie (thanks, Spida)
451 * Changes in GRML_MEDIUM:
452 - add beep (on request by gebi)
453 - add dstat (on request by gebi)
454 - add mc (on request by Christian Kuehlborn)
455 * Document noautoconfig in grml-cheatcodes. Thanks to Ralf Moll!
457 - rename all etch* related scripts to lenny*
458 - adjust scripts to use "lenny" instead of "stable" for building
459 [to avoid that "etch" is used as build name but lenny is used]
460 - use "$NAME-daily-$SUITE" in functions.sh as build name so
461 identifying ISOs while running them is easier
462 * Support squeeze as valid suite name.
463 * Comment Debian/unstable in /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences by default.
464 This should avoid issues with something like
465 'apt-get -t experimental ...'
466 * Consequently drop 'Latest change' lines from all files.
467 * Support generation of sha1sum [Testing: issue622]
468 * Drop first, unnecessary APPEND line in isolinux.cfg and syslinux.cfg.
470 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default
471 in grml-autoconfig anyway and this shortens our /proc/cmdline.
472 * Run commands requiring network access through 'timeout 10' by default
473 if possible. [Closes: issue396]
474 * Do not use build server's hostname for /etc/mailname and
475 /etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf. [Testing: issue412]
476 * Add "forensic" to the append line when using the forensic kerneloption
477 so we can grep for it in any case.
478 * 15-initsetup: keep a backup of the original runlevel.conf file.
479 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the idea! [Closes: issue570]
480 * instsoft.GRMLBASE: support installation of multiple gpg keys
481 via /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/*.key
482 * isolinux.cfg/syslinux.cfg: Drop duplicated 'MENU DEFAULT'.
483 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the bugreport!
484 * Move /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences to /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/.
485 This simplifies the directory layout a bit. Clarify its usage
486 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt
487 * Install all files from /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt. This supports
488 usage of directories like /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. Thanks for the
489 hint to Thomas Lehmann. [Closes: issue632]
490 * Replace all "sed -i 's/././' foo" calls with
491 'sed -i 's/././' foo | sponge foo' instead inside main grml-live script
492 so we don't destroy any existing symlinks. Depend on moreutils therefor.
494 * Integrate bsd4grml [hash: 987ce9a6f9ce205ba64794ed3fcac603]. This
495 provides MirBSD as bootoption 'bsd' at grml's bootprompt. Thanks to
496 Thorsten "mirabilos" Glaser for his work! Add support for
497 configuring NO_ADDONS_BSD4GRML via configuration file.
498 * Add informational header to /etc/grml/fai/apt/sources.list and
499 update docs regarding the file.
500 * If specified SUITE is unstable use 'sid' instead (to avoid breakages
502 * Support NO_ADDONS via configuration file.
503 * Always skip mksquashfs part when using -q option.

551 - powertop (Linux tool to find out what is using power on a laptop)
552 * Remove localepurge from GRML_SMALL.
553 * Remove mozilla-imagezoom from GRML_FULL (the "extension installed"
554 * Execute dpkg-reconfigure for localepurge with noninteractive frontend.
556 * Rework locale handling. From now on /usr/share/locale gets removed
557 by default (though /usr/share/i18n/locales won't be touched for
558 now), unless using class LOCALES. Reason: We have >70MB inside
559 /usr/share/locale on GRML_FULL, just too much to ship by default,
560 message at startup sucks).
561 * Update grml-cheatcodes.txt.
562 * Provide grml's gpg key via /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/grml.key
563 so we support offline operation as well. Based on an idea by
564 Thomas Lehmann, thanks!
565 * Generate ISO with volume label "${GRML_NAME} ${VERSION}" instead of
566 "grml $VERSION" so we propagate the according grml-name. Thanks to
568 * Support -q option to build the ISO without (re-)creating the squashfs

1135 * Added new grml-repository named grml-live which is intented
1136 to fix issues from Debian for grml-live builds. It is automatically
1137 activated if you are building against unstable/sid and should
1138 be used manually only if you realy know what you are doing.
1139 Notice: if something fails inside building the base chroot/
1140 debootstrap system we can't do anything via grml-live for you
1141 right now. Instead grab the base.tgz from http://daily.grml.org/
