1 grml-live (0.9.22) UNRELEASED; urgency=low
3 * Send 'Find FAI build logs at' message to grml-live.log as well.
4 * Software related changes:
5 - Add comgt to GRML_FULL.
6 - Add fatattr to GRML_FULL.
7 - Add libsmbios-bin to GRML_FULL (thanks to Christian Bricart).
8 - Add qla-tools to GRML_FULL.
9 - Add xmount to GRML_FULL.
10 - Drop edac-utils from GRML_FULL (it's in a bad shape within Debian).
11 - Drop deprecated firmware-ipw3945 + ipw3945d from GRML_SMALL,
12 GRML_MEDIUM and GRML_FULL.
13 - Drop lanmap (abandonned upstream, see #542376).
14 - Move dmidecode from GRML_SMALL, GRML_MEDIUM and GRML_FULL to GRMLBASE.
15 - Replace nessusclient, nessusd and nessus-plugins with
16 openvas-client and openvas-server in GRML_FULL.
17 * Do not use /etc/grml_version but instead use /etc/debian_version
18 as check whether the chroot exists. If grml-live execution
19 itself succeded but was interrupted during task_configure it should
20 be fine to re-run grml-live with -u/-b options.
21 * Fix usage of exclude option in $SQUASHFS_OPTIONS.
22 * Always remove temporary squashfs stderr file.
23 * Fix usage of /etc/runlevel.conf in 15-initsetup.
24 * Add wicd configuration to /etc/grml/fai/config/debconf/GRMLBASE.
25 * Temporarly move /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grml.list in instsoft.GRMLBASE
26 to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grml.unused and restore in 33-aptsetup
27 again then. This should should prevent us from duplicated sources
29 * New cmdline option: "-n" skips generation of the ISO file.
30 * Introduce support for squashfs-lzma-tools 4.0-1 and support
31 configuration variable SQUASHFS_BINARY.
32 * Modify update-initramfs call in grml-live script as the
33 'update-initramfs -u -t' might fail with linux images which have been
34 build using kernel-package.
35 * templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg: add space char at end of lines in entries
36 that are meant for manual editing (so user just has to press <tab>
38 * Add 'pci=nomsi' to failsafe bootoption (thanks to Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt).
39 * Fix grml2usb bootoption in templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg.
40 * Display "Finished execution of stage 'WINDOWS_BINARIES'" only if the
41 according code has been executed (and do not display if skipping).

45 grml-live (0.9.21) unstable; urgency=low
50 - Split the single /etc/apt/sources.list file into structured files
51 in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/. We are using:
52 - /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grml.list for all grml related repositories
53 - /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list for official Debian repositories
55 - Provide information about grml-live version and Debian/suite
56 through /etc/grml_live_version in the generated ISO. [Closes: issue637]
57 - New graphical boot menu. Can be disabled via ISOLINUX_METHOD=console.
58 - New configuration variables DISTRI_NAME and DISTRI_INFO which should allow
59 easier rebranding of grml-live based distributions.
60 - Support installation of local files (not being part of any Debian package)
61 through $CHROOT_INSTALL.
62 - Display path of FAI logs during execution of grml-live.
63 - Replace all references to ftp.de.debian.org with cdn.debian.org,
64 see http://wiki.debian.org/DebianGeoMirror for details.
65 Thanks for the idea, Marc Haber!
67 * Bug fixes and improvements:
68 - When adjusting postfix configuration: make sure to execute newaliases
69 command after adjusting configuration, otherwise the old hostname
70 will be left inside /etc/aliases.db.
71 - grml_cleanup_chroot: get rid of /etc/lvm/cache/.cache and
72 /etc/lvm/backup/main as well.
73 - grml_cleanup_chroot: drop the /usr/include/linux checks.
74 - 90-update-alternatives: use wm-ng as default x-window-manager.
76 - Check for existence of $target/etc/apt/important_note.txt before
78 - buildd: drop GRML_LIVE_ARCH but instead use default architecture
80 - Set UTC=no by default. See http://bts.grml.org/grml/issue708 for
81 details. Credits to Ulrich Zehl for debugging. [Closes: issue708]
82 - Improve check for architecture which should be build: if not specified
83 assume a safe default and check this one.
84 - Unify variable default checks, always assume sane defaults.
85 - Always run $SUITE checks, so grml-live repository is used also
86 if suite isn't manually specified.
87 - Detect existence of stage 'boot' using boot/isolinux so grml-live
88 executed with options '-q -B' and empty boot/isolinux works as well.
89 - Introduce $NO_WINDOWS_BINARIES which replaces $WINDOWS_BINARIES so
90 we can improve sanity checks and easify configuration.
91 - Integrate memtest86+ binary so we don't ship old versions from
92 the build host. [Closes: issue717]
93 - Check whether rebuild of ISO is needed even though the ISO exists already.
96 * Debian packaging related changes:
97 - Bump to Standard-Version 3.8.3 (no further changes).
98 - Improve long description.
99 - Update copyright file (make lintian happy).
100 - Register grml-live html docs using doc-base.
103 - grml-cheatcodes: document bootoption 'nostartx'.
104 - Apply patch from Marc Haber (thanks!) for new grml cheatcodes
105 (new DCS directory feature).
107 * Software related changes:
108 - Add git-email to GRML_FULL (thanks to Joerg Woelke for mentioning).
109 - Add aesfix, aeskeyfind, bios-memimage, chaosreader, ext3grep, fatback,
110 myrescue, pipebench, safecopy, shed and xmount to GRML_FORENSIC. The
111 packages are either already available or should be available soon.
112 - Add scsitools to GRML_MEDIUM.
113 - Drop bar from GRML_FULL (no release since 2007, consider using
114 for example cpipe instead).
115 - Drop grml-saveconfig as it is replaced with recent versions
117 - Drop hydra from GRML_FULL (the license is not a clean GPL one).
118 - Drop icedax from GRML_FULL (we have schilyutils available).
121 * Update MirOS bsd4grml to 20090812 and sync menu.lst, grub.cfg,
122 isolinux.cfg, syslinux.cfg with each other; provide a fallback
123 way to boot MirOS bsd4grml from both GRUB versions using modules.
124 * Fix going back to GNU GRUB from ldbsd.com via alternative boot method;
125 while here, add the grml release info to the appropriate file.

132 * Drop all references to xserver-xorg-input-elo2300 (see #527699).
133 * Cleanups in GRML_FULL:
134 - Drop cheops (depends on libgtk1.2).
135 - Drop dviutils ("Note: selecting "texlive-extra-utils" instead of the
136 virtual package "dviutils" -> non-existing package)
137 - Drop ext2resize (see #400797).
138 - Drop fcoretools (see #534542).
139 - Drop gdk-imlib11 (see #522810).
140 - Drop gqcam (still depends on gtk1.2).
141 - Drop hping2 (hping3 is available in all relevant Debian releases
142 nowadays, see #533275).
143 - Drop libpam-pwgen (see #511613).
144 - Drop rgpsp (owner set to Debian QA Group and package doesn't seem
145 to be that important for grml).
146 - Drop windowlab (see #410618).
147 - Drop workbone (see #429178).
148 * Add check for valid Debian suite name to avoid breakage of sources.list
149 if someone calls grml-live with a typo in the -s option.

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

441 * Drop first, unnecessary APPEND line in isolinux.cfg and syslinux.cfg.
443 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default

459 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt

464 'sed -i 's/././' foo | sponge foo' instead inside main grml-live script

468 provides MirBSD as bootoption 'bsd' at grml's bootprompt. Thanks to
469 Thorsten "mirabilos" Glaser for his work! Add support for
470 configuring NO_ADDONS_BSD4GRML via configuration file.

950 FAI version 3.2.3 therefor.
951 * FAI 3.2.3 has a new log schema, adjusted grml-live accordingly.
952 Quoting the NEWS file of FAI:
953 - LOGDIR is now /var/log/fai/$HOSTNAME/$FAI_ACTION_date+time
954 - LOGDIR is /tmp/fai during an installation (not dirinstall), and
955 will be copied to the path above at the end of an installation

1087 * Added FAI patches to /usr/share/grml-live/patches/ - it's
1088 recommended to apply the patches to FAI until they are accepted
1089 upstream. See Debian's BTS for more details: #444210, #447080
1091 * Support option '-u' for updating system.
1092 * Reworked buildd concept.
1093 - Now we have a seperate
1094 /usr/share/grml-live/buildd/functions.sh for generic stuff
1095 and /etc/grml/grml-buildd.conf as configuration file.

1107 $ZERO_LOGFILE for cleaning up logs.
1108 * Added new grml-repository named grml-live which is intented
1109 to fix issues from Debian for grml-live builds. It is automatically
1110 activated if you are building against unstable/sid and should
1111 be used manually only if you realy know what you are doing.
1112 Notice: if something fails inside building the base chroot/
1113 debootstrap system we can't do anything via grml-live for you
1114 right now. Instead grab the base.tgz from http://daily.grml.org/
1115 * Add /usr/share/grml-live/scripts/repodiff.pl (by formorer, thx!)
