202 * Do not use /etc/grml_version but instead use /etc/debian_version

215 * Introduce support for squashfs-lzma-tools 4.0-1 and support
216 configuration variable SQUASHFS_BINARY.
217 * Modify update-initramfs call in grml-live script as the
218 'update-initramfs -u -t' might fail with linux images which have been
219 build using kernel-package.
220 * templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg: add space char at end of lines in entries
221 that are meant for manual editing (so user just has to press <tab>
223 * Add 'pci=nomsi' to failsafe bootoption (thanks to Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt).
224 * Fix grml2usb bootoption in templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg.

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

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

329 nowadays, see #533275).
330 - Drop libpam-pwgen (see #511613).
331 - Drop rgpsp (owner set to Debian QA Group and package doesn't seem
332 to be that important for grml).
333 - Drop windowlab (see #410618).

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

617 - rename all etch* related scripts to lenny*
618 - adjust scripts to use "lenny" instead of "stable" for building
619 [to avoid that "etch" is used as build name but lenny is used]
620 - use "$NAME-daily-$SUITE" in functions.sh as build name so
621 identifying ISOs while running them is easier
622 * Support squeeze as valid suite name.
623 * Comment Debian/unstable in /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences by default.
624 This should avoid issues with something like
625 'apt-get -t experimental ...'
626 * Consequently drop 'Latest change' lines from all files.

628 * Drop first, unnecessary APPEND line in isolinux.cfg and syslinux.cfg.
630 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default
631 in grml-autoconfig anyway and this shortens our /proc/cmdline.
632 * Run commands requiring network access through 'timeout 10' by default

643 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the bugreport!
644 * Move /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences to /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/.
645 This simplifies the directory layout a bit. Clarify its usage
646 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt
647 * Install all files from /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt. This supports
648 usage of directories like /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. Thanks for the
649 hint to Thomas Lehmann. [Closes: issue632]
650 * Replace all "sed -i 's/././' foo" calls with
651 'sed -i 's/././' foo | sponge foo' instead inside main grml-live script
652 so we don't destroy any existing symlinks. Depend on moreutils therefor.

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

1297 activated if you are building against unstable/sid and should
1298 be used manually only if you realy know what you are doing.

1359 * Update of buildd scripts: main configuration file main.sh
1360 which provides all the build stuff inside separate functions.
1361 * Fall back to blackhole.pca.dfn.de as keyserver if retreiving
1362 from subkeys.pgp.net fails.
1363 * Improve check for kernel version inside
1364 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/10-build-initramfs
1365 * Work around #353967 for Debian/etch in
1366 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/21-usersetup
1367 * Add new packages to GRML_FULL:
1368 - ghostscript (and get rid of gs, gs-common, gs-esp)

1373 grml-live (0.0.5) unstable; urgency=low
1375 * Add new scripts to /usr/share/grml-live/examples/buildd/:
1376 - grml-live_autobuild_grml-small_etch.sh
1377 - grml-live_autobuild_grml-small_sid.sh
1378 - grml-live_autobuild_grml64-small_etch.sh
1379 - grml-live_autobuild_grml64-small_sid.sh
1380 * Some more FAI error checking.
1381 * Updated buildd scripts (better subject handling).
1382 * Re-enable 'Acquire::http::Pipeline-Depth' workaround'.
1383 Restore usual Debian behaviour at the end using
1384 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/99-finish-grml-build
1385 * Add new scripts for retreiving bugs via apt-listbugs
1386 and storing package selection inside log directory.
1387 This has been integrated in a new class named "RELEASE".
1388 * Added support for new kernel version 2.6.23-grml to
1390 * Use uxterm as x-terminal-emulator and fall back to xterm
1391 only it uxterm is not available.
1392 * Support /etc/locale.gen.grml - it's used by default in
1393 class GRML_FULL and a new class named LOCALES.
1394 * Work around #443481 (bug inside snort) for Debian etch
1395 via using /etc/snort/snort.common.parameters (thanks for
1396 the idea, Thomas Lange!)
1397 * Do not exit with an error code if /usr/include/linux is NOT
1398 a symlink to /usr/src/linux/include/linux but keep it as
1400 * Log executed grml-live command.
1401 * Re-enable problematic packages that have been fixed:
1402 - apt-listbugs (fixed via manual interaction in scripts)
1403 - gsm-utils (#353967)
1405 - wvdial (fixed via debconf)
1406 * Add new packages to GRML_FULL:

1413 grml-live (0.0.4) unstable; urgency=low
1415 * The -t option for specifying the output directory has been
1416 renamed into -o. The option -t now specifies the place where
1417 templates for building the ISO can be found.
1418 * Option -t can be used for specifying the template directory.
1419 TEMPLATE_DIRECTORY can be used in /etc/grml/grml-live.conf
1420 * Check for /var/run/fai/FAI_INSTALLATION_IN_PROGRESS and exit then.
1421 * /etc/grml/fai/config/hooks/instsoft.GRMLBASE:
1422 - disable pipeline workaround
1423 - create /dev/MAKEDEV in chroot to work around the
1424 "./MAKEDEV: No such file or directory" problem of some packages
1425 * Use /var/log/grml-live.log as log file as /var/log/fai/* is too
1426 dangerous because of automatic removal of the files/dirs via fai.
1427 * Use class GRML_MEDIUM by default and document GRMLBASE, GRML_* plus
1428 I386/AMD64 classes in the docs.
1429 * Add new packages to GRML_FULL:
1430 - tgt: Linux target framework user-space tools
1431 - paperkey: extract just the secret information out ouf OpenPGP keys
1432 - gitpkg: helper scripts for maintaining packages with git
1433 - iscsitarget: iSCSI Enterprise Target userland tools
1434 - iscsitarget-module-2.6.22-grml: kernel module for iscsitarget
1435 * Set $HOSTNAME to according hostname via
1436 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/34-hosts
1437 * Adjust filename in header of /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/*.
1438 * Use iceweasel/firefox as x-www-browser and w3m as www-browser (if
1440 * Check for presence of the initrd.
1441 * Improve adjustment of suite for $FAI_DEBOOTSTRAP.
1442 * Add /usr/share/grml-live/examples/buildd/

1448 * Support for setting GRML_NAME (like grml vs. grml-small
1450 * Drop the character limits of $VERSION and $RELEASENAME.
1451 * Make sure $SECONDS is set before outputting the runtime.
1452 * Unify usage of i386_files, place all template files in
1453 directory templates now.
1454 * Improve portability of linux headers cleanup inside
1455 grml_cleanup_chroot.
1456 * Provide class GRML_SMALL and rename old GRML_SMALL into
1458 * Do not install kernel via GRMLBASE but via GRML_* classes
1459 instead so we have only one single kernel on the system
1460 with something like 'GRMLBASE,GRML_SMALL,REMOVE_DOCS,I386'.
1461 * Use grml-live.log as logfile.
1462 * Added vim to GRML_MEDIUM package list.
