170 * Do not use /etc/grml_version but instead use /etc/debian_version
171 as check whether the chroot exists. If grml-live execution
172 itself succeded but was interrupted during task_configure it should
173 be fine to re-run grml-live with -u/-b options.

184 configuration variable SQUASHFS_BINARY.

187 build using kernel-package.
188 * templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg: add space char at end of lines in entries
189 that are meant for manual editing (so user just has to press <tab>
191 * Add 'pci=nomsi' to failsafe bootoption (thanks to Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt).
192 * Fix grml2usb bootoption in templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg.

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

264 - Add aesfix, aeskeyfind, bios-memimage, chaosreader, ext3grep, fatback,
265 myrescue, pipebench, safecopy, shed and xmount to GRML_FORENSIC. The
266 packages are either already available or should be available soon.
267 - Add scsitools to GRML_MEDIUM.
268 - Drop bar from GRML_FULL (no release since 2007, consider using
269 for example cpipe instead).
270 - Drop grml-saveconfig as it is replaced with recent versions
272 - Drop hydra from GRML_FULL (the license is not a clean GPL one).
273 - Drop icedax from GRML_FULL (we have schilyutils available).
276 * Update MirOS bsd4grml to 20090812 and sync menu.lst, grub.cfg,
277 isolinux.cfg, syslinux.cfg with each other; provide a fallback
278 way to boot MirOS bsd4grml from both GRUB versions using modules.
279 * Fix going back to GNU GRUB from ldbsd.com via alternative boot method;
280 while here, add the grml release info to the appropriate file.

294 - Drop gdk-imlib11 (see #522810).
295 - Drop gqcam (still depends on gtk1.2).
296 - Drop hping2 (hping3 is available in all relevant Debian releases
297 nowadays, see #533275).
298 - Drop libpam-pwgen (see #511613).
299 - Drop rgpsp (owner set to Debian QA Group and package doesn't seem
300 to be that important for grml).
301 - Drop windowlab (see #410618).
302 - Drop workbone (see #429178).
303 * Add check for valid Debian suite name to avoid breakage of sources.list

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

491 * Split package into grml-live and grml-live-addons.
492 Add grml-live-addons to Recommends of package grml-live.
493 Package grml-live-addons provides the templates/boot/addons

583 * Document noautoconfig in grml-cheatcodes. Thanks to Ralf Moll!
585 - rename all etch* related scripts to lenny*
586 - adjust scripts to use "lenny" instead of "stable" for building
587 [to avoid that "etch" is used as build name but lenny is used]
588 - use "$NAME-daily-$SUITE" in functions.sh as build name so
589 identifying ISOs while running them is easier
590 * Support squeeze as valid suite name.
591 * Comment Debian/unstable in /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences by default.
592 This should avoid issues with something like
593 'apt-get -t experimental ...'
594 * Consequently drop 'Latest change' lines from all files.
595 * Support generation of sha1sum [Testing: issue622]
596 * Drop first, unnecessary APPEND line in isolinux.cfg and syslinux.cfg.
598 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default
599 in grml-autoconfig anyway and this shortens our /proc/cmdline.
600 * Run commands requiring network access through 'timeout 10' by default
601 if possible. [Closes: issue396]
602 * Do not use build server's hostname for /etc/mailname and
603 /etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf. [Testing: issue412]
604 * Add "forensic" to the append line when using the forensic kerneloption
605 so we can grep for it in any case.

609 via /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/*.key

611 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the bugreport!
612 * Move /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences to /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/.
613 This simplifies the directory layout a bit. Clarify its usage
614 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt
615 * Install all files from /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt. This supports
616 usage of directories like /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. Thanks for the
617 hint to Thomas Lehmann. [Closes: issue632]
618 * Replace all "sed -i 's/././' foo" calls with
619 'sed -i 's/././' foo | sponge foo' instead inside main grml-live script
620 so we don't destroy any existing symlinks. Depend on moreutils therefor.
622 * Integrate bsd4grml [hash: 987ce9a6f9ce205ba64794ed3fcac603]. This
623 provides MirBSD as bootoption 'bsd' at grml's bootprompt. Thanks to

889 The problem was a too big boot/isolinux directory. Thanks a lot
890 for all the testing to Andrea Mayr and Wernfried Haas!
891 - use /boot/addons/* for allinone.img, balder10.imz, chain.c32,
893 - place $GRML_NAME in /boot/$GRML_NAME/ - this should easify
894 support of several grml flavours on one single usb pen for the future
895 - adjust grub's menu.lst and isolinux.cfg as well as grml-live itself
896 for new directory layout
897 * Make sure $GRML_NAME does not contain known problematic characters.

1358 * Use uxterm as x-terminal-emulator and fall back to xterm
1359 only it uxterm is not available.
1360 * Support /etc/locale.gen.grml - it's used by default in
1361 class GRML_FULL and a new class named LOCALES.
1362 * Work around #443481 (bug inside snort) for Debian etch
1363 via using /etc/snort/snort.common.parameters (thanks for
1364 the idea, Thomas Lange!)
1365 * Do not exit with an error code if /usr/include/linux is NOT
1366 a symlink to /usr/src/linux/include/linux but keep it as
1368 * Log executed grml-live command.
1369 * Re-enable problematic packages that have been fixed:
1370 - apt-listbugs (fixed via manual interaction in scripts)
1371 - gsm-utils (#353967)
1373 - wvdial (fixed via debconf)
1374 * Add new packages to GRML_FULL:

1381 grml-live (0.0.4) unstable; urgency=low
1383 * The -t option for specifying the output directory has been
1384 renamed into -o. The option -t now specifies the place where
1385 templates for building the ISO can be found.
1386 * Option -t can be used for specifying the template directory.
1387 TEMPLATE_DIRECTORY can be used in /etc/grml/grml-live.conf
1388 * Check for /var/run/fai/FAI_INSTALLATION_IN_PROGRESS and exit then.
1389 * /etc/grml/fai/config/hooks/instsoft.GRMLBASE:
1390 - disable pipeline workaround
1391 - create /dev/MAKEDEV in chroot to work around the
1392 "./MAKEDEV: No such file or directory" problem of some packages
1393 * Use /var/log/grml-live.log as log file as /var/log/fai/* is too
1394 dangerous because of automatic removal of the files/dirs via fai.
1395 * Use class GRML_MEDIUM by default and document GRMLBASE, GRML_* plus
1396 I386/AMD64 classes in the docs.
1397 * Add new packages to GRML_FULL:
1398 - tgt: Linux target framework user-space tools
1399 - paperkey: extract just the secret information out ouf OpenPGP keys
1400 - gitpkg: helper scripts for maintaining packages with git
1401 - iscsitarget: iSCSI Enterprise Target userland tools
1402 - iscsitarget-module-2.6.22-grml: kernel module for iscsitarget
1403 * Set $HOSTNAME to according hostname via
1404 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/34-hosts
1405 * Adjust filename in header of /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/*.
1406 * Use iceweasel/firefox as x-www-browser and w3m as www-browser (if
1408 * Check for presence of the initrd.
1409 * Improve adjustment of suite for $FAI_DEBOOTSTRAP.
1410 * Add /usr/share/grml-live/examples/buildd/

1414 grml-live (0.0.3) unstable; urgency=low
1416 * Support for setting GRML_NAME (like grml vs. grml-small
1418 * Drop the character limits of $VERSION and $RELEASENAME.
1419 * Make sure $SECONDS is set before outputting the runtime.
1420 * Unify usage of i386_files, place all template files in
1421 directory templates now.
1422 * Improve portability of linux headers cleanup inside
1423 grml_cleanup_chroot.
1424 * Provide class GRML_SMALL and rename old GRML_SMALL into
1426 * Do not install kernel via GRMLBASE but via GRML_* classes
1427 instead so we have only one single kernel on the system
1428 with something like 'GRMLBASE,GRML_SMALL,REMOVE_DOCS,I386'.
1429 * Use grml-live.log as logfile.
1430 * Added vim to GRML_MEDIUM package list.
