18 xtables-addons-common).
19 - Drop harden-remoteaudit + openvas-server from GRML_FULL (they
20 are pretty useless without plugins which need just too much space).
21 * Rework variable replacements in templates. Now the %VAR% strings
22 in the templates match with the ones used inside grml-live ($VAR),
23 currently ARCH, DATE, DISTRI_INFO, DISTRI_NAME, DISTRI_SPLASH,
24 GRML_NAME, SQUASHFS_NAME, RELEASE_INFO, SHORT_NAME and VERSION
25 are supported. If you use your own templates from older grml-live
26 versions please make sure to adjust them.
27 Thanks to Ulrich for helping with integration within grml2usb.

110 * Do not use /etc/grml_version but instead use /etc/debian_version
111 as check whether the chroot exists. If grml-live execution
112 itself succeded but was interrupted during task_configure it should
113 be fine to re-run grml-live with -u/-b options.
114 * Fix usage of exclude option in $SQUASHFS_OPTIONS.
115 * Always remove temporary squashfs stderr file.

123 * Introduce support for squashfs-lzma-tools 4.0-1 and support
124 configuration variable SQUASHFS_BINARY.

126 'update-initramfs -u -t' might fail with linux images which have been
127 build using kernel-package.
128 * templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg: add space char at end of lines in entries
129 that are meant for manual editing (so user just has to press <tab>
131 * Add 'pci=nomsi' to failsafe bootoption (thanks to Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt).
132 * Fix grml2usb bootoption in templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg.
133 * Display "Finished execution of stage 'WINDOWS_BINARIES'" only if the
134 according code has been executed (and do not display if skipping).
135 * Completely remove /lib/modules/${KERNEL}/kernel/drivers/isdn/hisax on
136 grml-small as there will be unresolved symbols without hisax.ko.

140 grml-live (0.9.21) unstable; urgency=low
145 - Split the single /etc/apt/sources.list file into structured files
146 in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/. We are using:
147 - /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grml.list for all grml related repositories
148 - /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list for official Debian repositories
150 - Provide information about grml-live version and Debian/suite
151 through /etc/grml_live_version in the generated ISO. [Closes: issue637]
152 - New graphical boot menu. Can be disabled via ISOLINUX_METHOD=console.
153 - New configuration variables DISTRI_NAME and DISTRI_INFO which should allow
154 easier rebranding of grml-live based distributions.
155 - Support installation of local files (not being part of any Debian package)
156 through $CHROOT_INSTALL.
157 - Display path of FAI logs during execution of grml-live.
158 - Replace all references to ftp.de.debian.org with cdn.debian.org,
159 see http://wiki.debian.org/DebianGeoMirror for details.
160 Thanks for the idea, Marc Haber!
162 * Bug fixes and improvements:
163 - When adjusting postfix configuration: make sure to execute newaliases
164 command after adjusting configuration, otherwise the old hostname
165 will be left inside /etc/aliases.db.
166 - grml_cleanup_chroot: get rid of /etc/lvm/cache/.cache and
167 /etc/lvm/backup/main as well.
168 - grml_cleanup_chroot: drop the /usr/include/linux checks.
169 - 90-update-alternatives: use wm-ng as default x-window-manager.
171 - Check for existence of $target/etc/apt/important_note.txt before
173 - buildd: drop GRML_LIVE_ARCH but instead use default architecture
175 - Set UTC=no by default. See http://bts.grml.org/grml/issue708 for
176 details. Credits to Ulrich Zehl for debugging. [Closes: issue708]
177 - Improve check for architecture which should be build: if not specified
178 assume a safe default and check this one.
179 - Unify variable default checks, always assume sane defaults.
180 - Always run $SUITE checks, so grml-live repository is used also
181 if suite isn't manually specified.
182 - Detect existence of stage 'boot' using boot/isolinux so grml-live
183 executed with options '-q -B' and empty boot/isolinux works as well.
184 - Introduce $NO_WINDOWS_BINARIES which replaces $WINDOWS_BINARIES so
185 we can improve sanity checks and easify configuration.
186 - Integrate memtest86+ binary so we don't ship old versions from
187 the build host. [Closes: issue717]
188 - Check whether rebuild of ISO is needed even though the ISO exists already.
191 * Debian packaging related changes:
192 - Bump to Standard-Version 3.8.3 (no further changes).
193 - Improve long description.
194 - Update copyright file (make lintian happy).
195 - Register grml-live html docs using doc-base.
198 - grml-cheatcodes: document bootoption 'nostartx'.
199 - Apply patch from Marc Haber (thanks!) for new grml cheatcodes
200 (new DCS directory feature).
202 * Software related changes:
203 - Add git-email to GRML_FULL (thanks to Joerg Woelke for mentioning).
204 - Add aesfix, aeskeyfind, bios-memimage, chaosreader, ext3grep, fatback,
205 myrescue, pipebench, safecopy, shed and xmount to GRML_FORENSIC. The
206 packages are either already available or should be available soon.
207 - Add scsitools to GRML_MEDIUM.
208 - Drop bar from GRML_FULL (no release since 2007, consider using
209 for example cpipe instead).
210 - Drop grml-saveconfig as it is replaced with recent versions
212 - Drop hydra from GRML_FULL (the license is not a clean GPL one).
213 - Drop icedax from GRML_FULL (we have schilyutils available).
216 * Update MirOS bsd4grml to 20090812 and sync menu.lst, grub.cfg,
217 isolinux.cfg, syslinux.cfg with each other; provide a fallback
218 way to boot MirOS bsd4grml from both GRUB versions using modules.
219 * Fix going back to GNU GRUB from ldbsd.com via alternative boot method;
220 while here, add the grml release info to the appropriate file.

233 - Drop fcoretools (see #534542).
234 - Drop gdk-imlib11 (see #522810).
235 - Drop gqcam (still depends on gtk1.2).

237 nowadays, see #533275).
238 - Drop libpam-pwgen (see #511613).
239 - Drop rgpsp (owner set to Debian QA Group and package doesn't seem
240 to be that important for grml).
241 - Drop windowlab (see #410618).
242 - Drop workbone (see #429178).
243 * Add check for valid Debian suite name to avoid breakage of sources.list
244 if someone calls grml-live with a typo in the -s option.

246 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/40-deborphan.

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

429 grml-live (0.9.13) unstable; urgency=low
431 * Split package into grml-live and grml-live-addons.
432 Add grml-live-addons to Recommends of package grml-live.
433 Package grml-live-addons provides the templates/boot/addons
434 files that require >7MB of disk space overall so we don't
435 want to ship it with default grml:
444 * Add ${misc:Depends} to binary packages' depend.
445 * Bump Standard-Version to 3.8.1 (no further changes).
446 * Install /etc/grml/fai/live-initramfs/live.conf only if

523 * Document noautoconfig in grml-cheatcodes. Thanks to Ralf Moll!
525 - rename all etch* related scripts to lenny*
526 - adjust scripts to use "lenny" instead of "stable" for building
527 [to avoid that "etch" is used as build name but lenny is used]
528 - use "$NAME-daily-$SUITE" in functions.sh as build name so
529 identifying ISOs while running them is easier
530 * Support squeeze as valid suite name.
531 * Comment Debian/unstable in /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences by default.
532 This should avoid issues with something like
533 'apt-get -t experimental ...'
534 * Consequently drop 'Latest change' lines from all files.
535 * Support generation of sha1sum [Testing: issue622]
536 * Drop first, unnecessary APPEND line in isolinux.cfg and syslinux.cfg.
538 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default
539 in grml-autoconfig anyway and this shortens our /proc/cmdline.
540 * Run commands requiring network access through 'timeout 10' by default
541 if possible. [Closes: issue396]
542 * Do not use build server's hostname for /etc/mailname and
543 /etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf. [Testing: issue412]
544 * Add "forensic" to the append line when using the forensic kerneloption
545 so we can grep for it in any case.

551 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the bugreport!
552 * Move /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences to /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/.
553 This simplifies the directory layout a bit. Clarify its usage
554 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt
555 * Install all files from /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt. This supports
556 usage of directories like /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. Thanks for the
557 hint to Thomas Lehmann. [Closes: issue632]
558 * Replace all "sed -i 's/././' foo" calls with
559 'sed -i 's/././' foo | sponge foo' instead inside main grml-live script
560 so we don't destroy any existing symlinks. Depend on moreutils therefor.
562 * Integrate bsd4grml [hash: 987ce9a6f9ce205ba64794ed3fcac603]. This
563 provides MirBSD as bootoption 'bsd' at grml's bootprompt. Thanks to
564 Thorsten "mirabilos" Glaser for his work! Add support for
565 configuring NO_ADDONS_BSD4GRML via configuration file.
566 * Add informational header to /etc/grml/fai/apt/sources.list and
567 update docs regarding the file.
568 * If specified SUITE is unstable use 'sid' instead (to avoid breakages

621 * Remove mozilla-imagezoom from GRML_FULL (the "extension installed"

625 by default (though /usr/share/i18n/locales won't be touched for
626 now), unless using class LOCALES. Reason: We have >70MB inside
627 /usr/share/locale on GRML_FULL, just too much to ship by default,
