551 grml2usb (0.9.13) unstable; urgency=low
554 * Modified syslinux configuration handling to generate new vesa
556 * Support adding additional isos to existing grml2usb installation.
557 * grml2iso supports new grml2usb using syslinux now.
560 * Update documentation regarding syslinux and FAT32 (thanks to
561 Stefan Traby <stefan@hello-penguin.com> for the hint).
562 * Changes with regards to Ulrich's work:
563 - Add a check to identify old ISOs which do not ship
564 a default.cfg file and abort then. We have to break
565 backward compatibility, otherwise the isolinux/syslinux
566 code would become worse than it's already nowadays.
567 - Search for isolinux files in /boot/isolinux/ so the
568 correct grml.png is used.
569 - Support setting bootoptions in syslinux.cfg
570 * Drop duplicated boot=live references in kernel cmdline.
571 * Apply patch from Thorsten Glaser which prepares code for
573 * Raise CriticalException if filesystem.module, kernel or
574 initrd are not present.
575 * Avoid the "file is read only, overwrite anyway (y/n) ?"
576 question of mtools by syslinux.
577 * Inform user when using grub as bootloader.
578 * Make syslinux the default bootloader (drop --syslinux,
579 add --grub instead). Grub fails just too often.

583 grml2usb (0.9.12) unstable; urgency=low
585 * Replace 'logging.*("%s" % foo)' with 'logging.*("%s", foo)'
586 so the logging works with python2.6 as well.

597 grml2usb (0.9.10) unstable; urgency=low
599 * Support the directory where the grml2usb script resides as base
600 directory so /usr/share/grml2usb isn't necessarily needed.
601 Thanks for the patch to Alexander 'Leo' Bergolth <leo@strike.wu.ac.at>!
602 * Make sure grub.conf isn't a symlink but a plain file instead,
603 otherwise it will break on FAT16 filesystems. This works around
604 grub-install of (at least) Fedora 10.
605 Thanks for the patch to Alexander 'Leo' Bergolth <leo@strike.wu.ac.at>!
606 * Use 'pci=nomsi' in failsafe bootoption. Thanks to Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt.
607 * Mention the --syslinux option if grub-install fails.
608 * Fix usage of --force in combination with --fat16. Thanks to
609 Johannes Endres and Reiko Kaps for the bugreport.
610 * Replace hint to '--grub' with 'grub'.
611 * New option --grub-mbr which allows installation of grub in MBR instead
612 of installation into a partition (PBR) which is necessary when using grub2.

616 grml2usb (0.9.9) unstable; urgency=low
618 * Use ascii.pf2 as grub2 font, since grub2 (1.96+20090307-1)
619 the old ascii.pff isn't available anymore.
620 * Use terminal_output if available, otherwise fallback to old
621 older 'terminal'-command (thanks to Felix Zielcke for helping).
622 * Document the 'grub-setup fails after Attempting to install GRUB
623 to a partition instead of the MBR' issue.
624 * Use "set gfxpayload=1024x768x16,1024x768" instead of vga=791 in
625 grub2 configuration. This requires a recent version of the linux
626 loader as the new linux loader loads the kernel at 32bit entry point
627 and not at 16 bit anymore so it has to be translated for the Linux
628 kernel (as the kernel parses vga= in 16 bit code). In the long run
629 we don't seem to have another option, so let's change it.
630 Thanks to Felix Zielcke and Robert Millan for first hand information.
631 * Increase timeout from 5 to 10 seconds in grub2 configuration.
632 * Load memtest86+ binary via 'linux16' in grub2 (otherwise it fails).
633 * Drop the serial boot entry from grub2 (I assume users with usb
634 pens don't need that option).
635 * Change the way MirOS bsd4grml is loaded (use the fallback method
637 * Improve descriptions of grml's grub2 entries.
638 * Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.3 (no further changes).
639 * Fix creation and installation of grub1's configuration file (menu.lst).
640 Thanks to Mario 'BitKoenig' Holbe.

644 grml2usb (0.9.8) unstable; urgency=low
646 * Support installation on /dev/loop*-devices.
647 * Generate configuration for syslinux and grub by default, no
648 matter which bootloader the users chooses.
649 * Added options --skip-syslinux-config and --skip-grub-config
650 if someone wants to skip the generation of any bootloader
652 * Make sure grub-install is available before executing it.
653 * Display information about default grml flavour and the other
654 available grml flavours at the end of the grml2usb run.
655 * Use /sbin/blkid (e2fsprogs) instead of vol_id as vol_id is going to be
656 removed from udev. Thanks for the patch to Andras Korn!
657 * Use rsync instead of cp. Thanks for the patch to Andras Korn!
659 * Use 'forensic' and 'readonly' in the forensic bootoption itself.
660 * Spelling fixes (thanks to Thorsten Glaser <tg@mirbsd.org>).
661 * Write GRUB2 config even if the target is a directory (thanks, Thorsten)
662 * All these "set root=" are not needed for GRUB2 (thanks, Thorsten)
663 * Switch order of check whether the specified device is a directory
664 and check for usb device (as the usb device check will fail if
666 * Add grml2iso for creating a bootable DVD:
667 - thanks once more to Thorsten Glaser for helping and patches
668 - thanks to Ernesto Domato for reporting the issue regarding
669 i386<->amd64 with grub-mkimage
670 * Move syslinux check to install_syslinux_mbr()
671 * Drop the reference to --grub option (thanks for the bugreport
673 * Update documentation:
674 - mention the dd approach
676 - improve section link names for the online version
677 - add 'grub-probe: error: unknown filesystem'
678 * Support use with python version 2.4.
679 * Bump Standard Version to 3.8.2 (no further changes).
680 * Depend on debhelper >=5 (using compat version 5).

706 * Apply fix by Peter Daum <gator@cs.tu-berlin.de>, making sure
707 to use the normalized path for unmounting. Thanks!
708 * Use 'multiboot' for booting MirOS BSD when using grub2.
709 * Catch exception if copying files fails.
710 * Make sure to exit if installing grub fails.
711 * Integrate hdt (Hardware Detection Tool) in bootsplash (but
712 only if using syslinux as grub isn't supported).

749 * Rewrote grml2usb from scratch (in python). New features:
750 - you no longer need to setup the device via /etc/fstab, just
751 directly invoke "grml2usb /path/to/iso /dev/sdb1"
