85 * Split package into grml-live and grml-live-addons.
86 Add grml-live-addons to Recommends of package grml-live.
87 Package grml-live-addons provides the templates/boot/addons

172 - replace gqview with geeqie (thanks, Spida)

177 * Document noautoconfig in grml-cheatcodes. Thanks to Ralf Moll!
179 - rename all etch* related scripts to lenny*
180 - adjust scripts to use "lenny" instead of "stable" for building
181 [to avoid that "etch" is used as build name but lenny is used]
182 - use "$NAME-daily-$SUITE" in functions.sh as build name so
183 identifying ISOs while running them is easier
184 * Support squeeze as valid suite name.
185 * Comment Debian/unstable in /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences by default.
186 This should avoid issues with something like
187 'apt-get -t experimental ...'
188 * Consequently drop 'Latest change' lines from all files.
189 * Support generation of sha1sum [Testing: issue622]
190 * Drop first, unnecessary APPEND line in isolinux.cfg and syslinux.cfg.
192 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default
193 in grml-autoconfig anyway and this shortens our /proc/cmdline.
194 * Run commands requiring network access through 'timeout 10' by default
195 if possible. [Closes: issue396]
196 * Do not use build server's hostname for /etc/mailname and
197 /etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf. [Testing: issue412]
198 * Add "forensic" to the append line when using the forensic kerneloption
199 so we can grep for it in any case.
200 * 15-initsetup: keep a backup of the original runlevel.conf file.

203 via /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/*.key
204 * isolinux.cfg/syslinux.cfg: Drop duplicated 'MENU DEFAULT'.
205 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the bugreport!
206 * Move /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences to /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/.
207 This simplifies the directory layout a bit. Clarify its usage
208 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt
209 * Install all files from /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt. This supports
210 usage of directories like /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. Thanks for the
211 hint to Thomas Lehmann. [Closes: issue632]
212 * Replace all "sed -i 's/././' foo" calls with
213 'sed -i 's/././' foo | sponge foo' instead inside main grml-live script
214 so we don't destroy any existing symlinks. Depend on moreutils therefor.
216 * Integrate bsd4grml [hash: 987ce9a6f9ce205ba64794ed3fcac603]. This
217 provides MirBSD as bootoption 'bsd' at grml's bootprompt. Thanks to

219 configuring NO_ADDONS_BSD4GRML via configuration file.

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

275 * Remove mozilla-imagezoom from GRML_FULL (the "extension installed"
276 * Execute dpkg-reconfigure for localepurge with noninteractive frontend.
278 * Rework locale handling. From now on /usr/share/locale gets removed
279 by default (though /usr/share/i18n/locales won't be touched for
280 now), unless using class LOCALES. Reason: We have >70MB inside
281 /usr/share/locale on GRML_FULL, just too much to ship by default,
282 message at startup sucks).

284 * Provide grml's gpg key via /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/grml.key
285 so we support offline operation as well. Based on an idea by
286 Thomas Lehmann, thanks!
287 * Generate ISO with volume label "${GRML_NAME} ${VERSION}" instead of

483 The problem was a too big boot/isolinux directory. Thanks a lot
484 for all the testing to Andrea Mayr and Wernfried Haas!
485 - use /boot/addons/* for allinone.img, balder10.imz, chain.c32,
487 - place $GRML_NAME in /boot/$GRML_NAME/ - this should easify
488 support of several grml flavours on one single usb pen for the future
489 - adjust grub's menu.lst and isolinux.cfg as well as grml-live itself
490 for new directory layout

937 * Add new scripts to /usr/share/grml-live/examples/buildd/:
938 - grml-live_autobuild_grml-small_etch.sh
939 - grml-live_autobuild_grml-small_sid.sh
940 - grml-live_autobuild_grml64-small_etch.sh
941 - grml-live_autobuild_grml64-small_sid.sh
942 * Some more FAI error checking.
943 * Updated buildd scripts (better subject handling).
944 * Re-enable 'Acquire::http::Pipeline-Depth' workaround'.
945 Restore usual Debian behaviour at the end using
946 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/99-finish-grml-build
947 * Add new scripts for retreiving bugs via apt-listbugs
948 and storing package selection inside log directory.
949 This has been integrated in a new class named "RELEASE".
950 * Added support for new kernel version 2.6.23-grml to
952 * Use uxterm as x-terminal-emulator and fall back to xterm
953 only it uxterm is not available.
954 * Support /etc/locale.gen.grml - it's used by default in
955 class GRML_FULL and a new class named LOCALES.
956 * Work around #443481 (bug inside snort) for Debian etch
957 via using /etc/snort/snort.common.parameters (thanks for
958 the idea, Thomas Lange!)
959 * Do not exit with an error code if /usr/include/linux is NOT
960 a symlink to /usr/src/linux/include/linux but keep it as
962 * Log executed grml-live command.
963 * Re-enable problematic packages that have been fixed:
964 - apt-listbugs (fixed via manual interaction in scripts)
965 - gsm-utils (#353967)
967 - wvdial (fixed via debconf)
968 * Add new packages to GRML_FULL:

977 * The -t option for specifying the output directory has been
978 renamed into -o. The option -t now specifies the place where
979 templates for building the ISO can be found.
980 * Option -t can be used for specifying the template directory.
981 TEMPLATE_DIRECTORY can be used in /etc/grml/grml-live.conf
982 * Check for /var/run/fai/FAI_INSTALLATION_IN_PROGRESS and exit then.
983 * /etc/grml/fai/config/hooks/instsoft.GRMLBASE:
984 - disable pipeline workaround
985 - create /dev/MAKEDEV in chroot to work around the
986 "./MAKEDEV: No such file or directory" problem of some packages
987 * Use /var/log/grml-live.log as log file as /var/log/fai/* is too
988 dangerous because of automatic removal of the files/dirs via fai.
989 * Use class GRML_MEDIUM by default and document GRMLBASE, GRML_* plus
990 I386/AMD64 classes in the docs.
991 * Add new packages to GRML_FULL:
992 - tgt: Linux target framework user-space tools
993 - paperkey: extract just the secret information out ouf OpenPGP keys
994 - gitpkg: helper scripts for maintaining packages with git
995 - iscsitarget: iSCSI Enterprise Target userland tools
996 - iscsitarget-module-2.6.22-grml: kernel module for iscsitarget
997 * Set $HOSTNAME to according hostname via
998 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/34-hosts
999 * Adjust filename in header of /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/*.
1000 * Use iceweasel/firefox as x-www-browser and w3m as www-browser (if
1002 * Check for presence of the initrd.
1003 * Improve adjustment of suite for $FAI_DEBOOTSTRAP.
1004 * Add /usr/share/grml-live/examples/buildd/

1010 * Support for setting GRML_NAME (like grml vs. grml-small
1012 * Drop the character limits of $VERSION and $RELEASENAME.
1013 * Make sure $SECONDS is set before outputting the runtime.
1014 * Unify usage of i386_files, place all template files in
1015 directory templates now.
1016 * Improve portability of linux headers cleanup inside
1017 grml_cleanup_chroot.
1018 * Provide class GRML_SMALL and rename old GRML_SMALL into
1020 * Do not install kernel via GRMLBASE but via GRML_* classes
1021 instead so we have only one single kernel on the system
1022 with something like 'GRMLBASE,GRML_SMALL,REMOVE_DOCS,I386'.
1023 * Use grml-live.log as logfile.
1024 * Added vim to GRML_MEDIUM package list.
