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

175 configuration variable SQUASHFS_BINARY.

177 'update-initramfs -u -t' might fail with linux images which have been
178 build using kernel-package.
179 * templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg: add space char at end of lines in entries
180 that are meant for manual editing (so user just has to press <tab>
182 * Add 'pci=nomsi' to failsafe bootoption (thanks to Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt).
183 * Fix grml2usb bootoption in templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg.

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

251 (new DCS directory feature).
253 * Software related changes:
254 - Add git-email to GRML_FULL (thanks to Joerg Woelke for mentioning).
255 - Add aesfix, aeskeyfind, bios-memimage, chaosreader, ext3grep, fatback,
256 myrescue, pipebench, safecopy, shed and xmount to GRML_FORENSIC. The
257 packages are either already available or should be available soon.
258 - Add scsitools to GRML_MEDIUM.
259 - Drop bar from GRML_FULL (no release since 2007, consider using
260 for example cpipe instead).
261 - Drop grml-saveconfig as it is replaced with recent versions
263 - Drop hydra from GRML_FULL (the license is not a clean GPL one).
264 - Drop icedax from GRML_FULL (we have schilyutils available).
267 * Update MirOS bsd4grml to 20090812 and sync menu.lst, grub.cfg,
268 isolinux.cfg, syslinux.cfg with each other; provide a fallback
269 way to boot MirOS bsd4grml from both GRUB versions using modules.
270 * Fix going back to GNU GRUB from ldbsd.com via alternative boot method;
271 while here, add the grml release info to the appropriate file.

285 - Drop gdk-imlib11 (see #522810).
286 - Drop gqcam (still depends on gtk1.2).
287 - Drop hping2 (hping3 is available in all relevant Debian releases
288 nowadays, see #533275).
289 - Drop libpam-pwgen (see #511613).
290 - Drop rgpsp (owner set to Debian QA Group and package doesn't seem
291 to be that important for grml).
292 - Drop windowlab (see #410618).
293 - Drop workbone (see #429178).
294 * Add check for valid Debian suite name to avoid breakage of sources.list

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

480 grml-live (0.9.13) unstable; urgency=low
482 * Split package into grml-live and grml-live-addons.
483 Add grml-live-addons to Recommends of package grml-live.
484 Package grml-live-addons provides the templates/boot/addons
485 files that require >7MB of disk space overall so we don't

495 * Add ${misc:Depends} to binary packages' depend.
496 * Bump Standard-Version to 3.8.1 (no further changes).
497 * Install /etc/grml/fai/live-initramfs/live.conf only if

503 Thanks for the point, formorer!
504 Use pci.ids from http://pciids.sourceforge.net/
505 * Mention bsd and hdt in isolinux' bootsplash f3.
506 * Mention readonly, hdt and bsd bootoptions in grml-cheatcodes.txt.
507 * Slightly improve 'grml2ram' vs 'grml toram' description in bootsplash.

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

567 * Changes in GRML_FULL:
568 - drop package tspc (see #462738 and #515193)
569 - replace gqview with geeqie (thanks, Spida)
570 * Changes in GRML_MEDIUM:
571 - add beep (on request by gebi)

573 - add mc (on request by Christian Kuehlborn)
574 * Document noautoconfig in grml-cheatcodes. Thanks to Ralf Moll!
576 - rename all etch* related scripts to lenny*
577 - adjust scripts to use "lenny" instead of "stable" for building
578 [to avoid that "etch" is used as build name but lenny is used]
579 - use "$NAME-daily-$SUITE" in functions.sh as build name so
580 identifying ISOs while running them is easier
581 * Support squeeze as valid suite name.
582 * Comment Debian/unstable in /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences by default.
583 This should avoid issues with something like
584 'apt-get -t experimental ...'
585 * Consequently drop 'Latest change' lines from all files.
586 * Support generation of sha1sum [Testing: issue622]
587 * Drop first, unnecessary APPEND line in isolinux.cfg and syslinux.cfg.
589 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default
590 in grml-autoconfig anyway and this shortens our /proc/cmdline.
591 * Run commands requiring network access through 'timeout 10' by default
592 if possible. [Closes: issue396]
593 * Do not use build server's hostname for /etc/mailname and
594 /etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf. [Testing: issue412]
595 * Add "forensic" to the append line when using the forensic kerneloption
596 so we can grep for it in any case.
597 * 15-initsetup: keep a backup of the original runlevel.conf file.
598 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the idea! [Closes: issue570]

600 via /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/*.key
601 * isolinux.cfg/syslinux.cfg: Drop duplicated 'MENU DEFAULT'.
602 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the bugreport!
603 * Move /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences to /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/.
604 This simplifies the directory layout a bit. Clarify its usage
605 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt
606 * Install all files from /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt. This supports
607 usage of directories like /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. Thanks for the
608 hint to Thomas Lehmann. [Closes: issue632]
609 * Replace all "sed -i 's/././' foo" calls with
610 'sed -i 's/././' foo | sponge foo' instead inside main grml-live script
611 so we don't destroy any existing symlinks. Depend on moreutils therefor.
613 * Integrate bsd4grml [hash: 987ce9a6f9ce205ba64794ed3fcac603]. This
614 provides MirBSD as bootoption 'bsd' at grml's bootprompt. Thanks to
615 Thorsten "mirabilos" Glaser for his work! Add support for
616 configuring NO_ADDONS_BSD4GRML via configuration file.
617 * Add informational header to /etc/grml/fai/apt/sources.list and
618 update docs regarding the file.
619 * If specified SUITE is unstable use 'sid' instead (to avoid breakages

1354 via using /etc/snort/snort.common.parameters (thanks for
1355 the idea, Thomas Lange!)
1356 * Do not exit with an error code if /usr/include/linux is NOT
1357 a symlink to /usr/src/linux/include/linux but keep it as
1359 * Log executed grml-live command.
1360 * Re-enable problematic packages that have been fixed:
1361 - apt-listbugs (fixed via manual interaction in scripts)
1362 - gsm-utils (#353967)
1364 - wvdial (fixed via debconf)
1365 * Add new packages to GRML_FULL:
1370 -- Michael Prokop <mika@grml.org> Sun, 07 Oct 2007 23:06:28 +0200
1372 grml-live (0.0.4) unstable; urgency=low
1374 * The -t option for specifying the output directory has been
1375 renamed into -o. The option -t now specifies the place where
1376 templates for building the ISO can be found.
1377 * Option -t can be used for specifying the template directory.
1378 TEMPLATE_DIRECTORY can be used in /etc/grml/grml-live.conf
1379 * Check for /var/run/fai/FAI_INSTALLATION_IN_PROGRESS and exit then.
1380 * /etc/grml/fai/config/hooks/instsoft.GRMLBASE:
1381 - disable pipeline workaround
1382 - create /dev/MAKEDEV in chroot to work around the
1383 "./MAKEDEV: No such file or directory" problem of some packages
1384 * Use /var/log/grml-live.log as log file as /var/log/fai/* is too
1385 dangerous because of automatic removal of the files/dirs via fai.
1386 * Use class GRML_MEDIUM by default and document GRMLBASE, GRML_* plus
1387 I386/AMD64 classes in the docs.
1388 * Add new packages to GRML_FULL:
1389 - tgt: Linux target framework user-space tools
1390 - paperkey: extract just the secret information out ouf OpenPGP keys
1391 - gitpkg: helper scripts for maintaining packages with git
1392 - iscsitarget: iSCSI Enterprise Target userland tools
1393 - iscsitarget-module-2.6.22-grml: kernel module for iscsitarget
1394 * Set $HOSTNAME to according hostname via
1395 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/34-hosts
1396 * Adjust filename in header of /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/*.
1397 * Use iceweasel/firefox as x-www-browser and w3m as www-browser (if
1399 * Check for presence of the initrd.
1400 * Improve adjustment of suite for $FAI_DEBOOTSTRAP.
1401 * Add /usr/share/grml-live/examples/buildd/

1405 grml-live (0.0.3) unstable; urgency=low
1407 * Support for setting GRML_NAME (like grml vs. grml-small
1409 * Drop the character limits of $VERSION and $RELEASENAME.
1410 * Make sure $SECONDS is set before outputting the runtime.
1411 * Unify usage of i386_files, place all template files in
1412 directory templates now.
1413 * Improve portability of linux headers cleanup inside
1414 grml_cleanup_chroot.
1415 * Provide class GRML_SMALL and rename old GRML_SMALL into
1417 * Do not install kernel via GRMLBASE but via GRML_* classes
1418 instead so we have only one single kernel on the system
1419 with something like 'GRMLBASE,GRML_SMALL,REMOVE_DOCS,I386'.
1420 * Use grml-live.log as logfile.
1421 * Added vim to GRML_MEDIUM package list.
