6 - Split the single /etc/apt/sources.list file into structured files
7 in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/. We are using:
8 - /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grml.list for all grml related repositories
9 - /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list for official Debian repositories
11 - Provide information about grml-live version and Debian/suite
12 through /etc/grml_live_version in the generated ISO. [Closes: issue637]
13 - New graphical boot menu. Can be disabled via ISOLINUX_METHOD=console.
14 - New configuration variables DISTRI_NAME and DISTRI_INFO which should allow
15 easier rebranding of grml-live based distributions.
16 - Support installation of local files (not being part of any Debian package)
17 through $CHROOT_INSTALL.
18 - Display path of FAI logs during execution of grml-live.
19 - Replace all references to ftp.de.debian.org with cdn.debian.org,
20 see http://wiki.debian.org/DebianGeoMirror for details.
21 Thanks for the idea, Marc Haber!
23 * Bug fixes and improvements:
24 - When adjusting postfix configuration: make sure to execute newaliases
25 command after adjusting configuration, otherwise the old hostname
26 will be left inside /etc/aliases.db.
27 - grml_cleanup_chroot: get rid of /etc/lvm/cache/.cache and
28 /etc/lvm/backup/main as well.
29 - grml_cleanup_chroot: drop the /usr/include/linux checks.
30 - 90-update-alternatives: use wm-ng as default x-window-manager.
32 - Check for existence of $target/etc/apt/important_note.txt before
34 - buildd: drop GRML_LIVE_ARCH but instead use default architecture
36 - Set UTC=no by default. See http://bts.grml.org/grml/issue708 for
37 details. Credits to Ulrich Zehl for debugging. [Closes: issue708]
38 - Improve check for architecture which should be build: if not specified
39 assume a safe default and check this one.
40 - Unify variable default checks, always assume sane defaults.
41 - Always run $SUITE checks, so grml-live repository is used also
42 if suite isn't manually specified.
43 - Detect existence of stage 'boot' using boot/isolinux so grml-live
44 executed with options '-q -B' and empty boot/isolinux works as well.
45 - Introduce $NO_WINDOWS_BINARIES which replaces $WINDOWS_BINARIES so
46 we can improve sanity checks and easify configuration.
47 - Integrate memtest86+ binary so we don't ship old versions from
48 the build host. [Closes: issue717]
49 - Check whether rebuild of ISO is needed even though the ISO exists already.
52 * Debian packaging related changes:
53 - Bump to Standard-Version 3.8.3 (no further changes).
54 - Improve long description.
55 - Update copyright file (make lintian happy).
56 - Register grml-live html docs using doc-base.
59 - grml-cheatcodes: document bootoption 'nostartx'.
60 - Apply patch from Marc Haber (thanks!) for new grml cheatcodes
61 (new DCS directory feature).
63 * Software related changes:
64 - Add git-email to GRML_FULL (thanks to Joerg Woelke for mentioning).
65 - Add aesfix, aeskeyfind, bios-memimage, chaosreader, ext3grep, fatback,
66 myrescue, pipebench, safecopy, shed and xmount to GRML_FORENSIC. The
67 packages are either already available or should be available soon.
68 - Add scsitools to GRML_MEDIUM.
69 - Drop bar from GRML_FULL (no release since 2007, consider using
70 for example cpipe instead).
71 - Drop grml-saveconfig as it is replaced with recent versions
73 - Drop hydra from GRML_FULL (the license is not a clean GPL one).
74 - Drop icedax from GRML_FULL (we have schilyutils available).
77 * Update MirOS bsd4grml to 20090812 and sync menu.lst, grub.cfg,
78 isolinux.cfg, syslinux.cfg with each other; provide a fallback
79 way to boot MirOS bsd4grml from both GRUB versions using modules.
80 * Fix going back to GNU GRUB from ldbsd.com via alternative boot method;
81 while here, add the grml release info to the appropriate file.

98 nowadays, see #533275).
99 - Drop libpam-pwgen (see #511613).
100 - Drop rgpsp (owner set to Debian QA Group and package doesn't seem
101 to be that important for grml).
102 - Drop windowlab (see #410618).
103 - Drop workbone (see #429178).
104 * Add check for valid Debian suite name to avoid breakage of sources.list
105 if someone calls grml-live with a typo in the -s option.

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

383 - add mc (on request by Christian Kuehlborn)
384 * Document noautoconfig in grml-cheatcodes. Thanks to Ralf Moll!
386 - rename all etch* related scripts to lenny*
387 - adjust scripts to use "lenny" instead of "stable" for building
388 [to avoid that "etch" is used as build name but lenny is used]
389 - use "$NAME-daily-$SUITE" in functions.sh as build name so
390 identifying ISOs while running them is easier
391 * Support squeeze as valid suite name.
392 * Comment Debian/unstable in /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences by default.
393 This should avoid issues with something like
394 'apt-get -t experimental ...'
395 * Consequently drop 'Latest change' lines from all files.
396 * Support generation of sha1sum [Testing: issue622]
397 * Drop first, unnecessary APPEND line in isolinux.cfg and syslinux.cfg.
399 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default
400 in grml-autoconfig anyway and this shortens our /proc/cmdline.
401 * Run commands requiring network access through 'timeout 10' by default
402 if possible. [Closes: issue396]
403 * Do not use build server's hostname for /etc/mailname and
404 /etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf. [Testing: issue412]
405 * Add "forensic" to the append line when using the forensic kerneloption

410 via /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/*.key
411 * isolinux.cfg/syslinux.cfg: Drop duplicated 'MENU DEFAULT'.
412 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the bugreport!
413 * Move /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences to /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/.
414 This simplifies the directory layout a bit. Clarify its usage
415 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt
416 * Install all files from /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt. This supports
417 usage of directories like /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. Thanks for the
418 hint to Thomas Lehmann. [Closes: issue632]
419 * Replace all "sed -i 's/././' foo" calls with
420 'sed -i 's/././' foo | sponge foo' instead inside main grml-live script
421 so we don't destroy any existing symlinks. Depend on moreutils therefor.

426 configuring NO_ADDONS_BSD4GRML via configuration file.
427 * Add informational header to /etc/grml/fai/apt/sources.list and
428 update docs regarding the file.
429 * If specified SUITE is unstable use 'sid' instead (to avoid breakages

909 - LOGDIR is now /var/log/fai/$HOSTNAME/$FAI_ACTION_date+time
910 - LOGDIR is /tmp/fai during an installation (not dirinstall), and
911 will be copied to the path above at the end of an installation
912 * Log the executed FAI, squashfs and mkisofs command lines to
913 /var/log/grml-live.log.
914 * New option '-C <configuration_file>' for specifying a configuration
915 file. Needs heavy testing though, because the files are updated
916 during runtime it isn't as easy as expected to be. :-/
917 * Support $ZERO_FAI_LOGFILE inside grml-live configuration for removing
919 * Do not enable apt-listbugs if the binary is not available.
921 * Add keychain package to GRML_SMALL.
922 * Add new packages to GRML_MEDIUM:
925 - lzma-modules-2.6.23-grml
926 - squashfs-modules-2.6.23-grml (we build the module external now)
927 * Add new packages to GRML_FULL:
930 - lzma-modules-2.6.23-grml
931 - squashfs-modules-2.6.23-grml (we build the module external now)
932 * Support loading of squashfs module via
933 /etc/grml/fai/live-initramfs/grml-script.init-top
934 * Make sure we have pinning for grml-stable and grml-testing
935 repositories via /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences, not matter where
936 the packages come from (web vs. local mirror/cache for example).
937 * Remove base.tgz from chroot directory.
938 * Do not create /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts and
939 /etc/sysconfig/provider any longer in cleanup script.
940 * Fix typo in bootsplash f3 (thanks, jimmy).
941 * Switch order of 'lang=us apm=power-off' to 'apm=poweroff' in
942 isolinyx/syslinux/grub configuration because getbootparam
943 of grml-autoconfig requires a whitespace inside /proc/cmdline.
944 * Support grml2ram bootoption inside isolinyx/syslinux/grub

1039 grml-live (0.0.7) unstable; urgency=low
1041 The "holidays? what? are you joking?!"-release.
1043 * Added FAI patches to /usr/share/grml-live/patches/ - it's
1044 recommended to apply the patches to FAI until they are accepted
1045 upstream. See Debian's BTS for more details: #444210, #447080
1047 * Support option '-u' for updating system.
1048 * Reworked buildd concept.
1049 - Now we have a seperate
1050 /usr/share/grml-live/buildd/functions.sh for generic stuff
1051 and /etc/grml/grml-buildd.conf as configuration file.
1052 - Use grml-buildd.{stdout,stderr} instead of
1053 grml-live.{stdout,stderr} as log files.
1054 - buildd/functions.sh: do not mv files if there was an error
1055 during grml-live execution
1056 - do not re-execute grml-live is the target ISO exists already
1057 * Update zsh completion - thanks to Frank Terbeck!
1058 * Set /etc/grml_version of live-system to the according value.
1060 * Support setting /etc/debian_chroot inside chroot (useful if
1061 building fails and manual interaction is needed).
1062 * Log to /var/log/grml-live.log by default now and support
1063 $ZERO_LOGFILE for cleaning up logs.
1064 * Added new grml-repository named grml-live which is intented
1065 to fix issues from Debian for grml-live builds. It is automatically
1066 activated if you are building against unstable/sid and should
1067 be used manually only if you realy know what you are doing.
1068 Notice: if something fails inside building the base chroot/
1069 debootstrap system we can't do anything via grml-live for you
1070 right now. Instead grab the base.tgz from http://daily.grml.org/
1071 * Add /usr/share/grml-live/scripts/repodiff.pl (by formorer, thx!)
1072 for comparing two repositories.
1073 * Replaced /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/preferences
1074 with /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences so grml-live repository
1075 can be used and configured at a single place.
1076 * Use apt-pinning via /etc/grml/fai/config/hooks/instsoft.GRMLBASE
1077 and drop it from /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/33-aptsetup

1080 * Log executed grml-live command line.
1081 * Set FAI_DEBOOTSTRAP_OPTS="--exclude=dhcp-client,info"

1084 * Set shared/default-x-server and xserver-xorg/config/monitor/identifier
1085 for xserver-xorg package via debconf to work around #448863.
1086 * Use "newest" kernel only if two kernels are present in the chroot.
1087 * Set $SECONDS to unknown if $start_seconds is not set.
1088 * Log closing signs (----...) via bailout to make sure they are
1089 always set - even when exiting with an error.
1090 * Check for presence of /bin/zsh before setting default shell in
1091 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/21-usersetup
1092 * Check for locales/localepurge before using them in
1093 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/25-locales
