91 * Do not use /etc/grml_version but instead use /etc/debian_version

105 configuration variable SQUASHFS_BINARY.

108 build using kernel-package.
109 * templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg: add space char at end of lines in entries
110 that are meant for manual editing (so user just has to press <tab>
112 * Add 'pci=nomsi' to failsafe bootoption (thanks to Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt).
113 * Fix grml2usb bootoption in templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg.
114 * Display "Finished execution of stage 'WINDOWS_BINARIES'" only if the
115 according code has been executed (and do not display if skipping).
116 * Completely remove /lib/modules/${KERNEL}/kernel/drivers/isdn/hisax on

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

214 - Drop fcoretools (see #534542).
215 - Drop gdk-imlib11 (see #522810).
216 - Drop gqcam (still depends on gtk1.2).

218 nowadays, see #533275).
219 - Drop libpam-pwgen (see #511613).
220 - Drop rgpsp (owner set to Debian QA Group and package doesn't seem
221 to be that important for grml).
222 - Drop windowlab (see #410618).
223 - Drop workbone (see #429178).
224 * Add check for valid Debian suite name to avoid breakage of sources.list
225 if someone calls grml-live with a typo in the -s option.

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

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

506 - rename all etch* related scripts to lenny*
507 - adjust scripts to use "lenny" instead of "stable" for building
508 [to avoid that "etch" is used as build name but lenny is used]
509 - use "$NAME-daily-$SUITE" in functions.sh as build name so
510 identifying ISOs while running them is easier
511 * Support squeeze as valid suite name.
512 * Comment Debian/unstable in /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences by default.

517 * Drop first, unnecessary APPEND line in isolinux.cfg and syslinux.cfg.
519 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default
520 in grml-autoconfig anyway and this shortens our /proc/cmdline.
521 * Run commands requiring network access through 'timeout 10' by default

532 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the bugreport!
533 * Move /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences to /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/.
534 This simplifies the directory layout a bit. Clarify its usage
535 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt
536 * Install all files from /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt. This supports
537 usage of directories like /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. Thanks for the
538 hint to Thomas Lehmann. [Closes: issue632]
539 * Replace all "sed -i 's/././' foo" calls with
540 'sed -i 's/././' foo | sponge foo' instead inside main grml-live script
541 so we don't destroy any existing symlinks. Depend on moreutils therefor.
543 * Integrate bsd4grml [hash: 987ce9a6f9ce205ba64794ed3fcac603]. This
544 provides MirBSD as bootoption 'bsd' at grml's bootprompt. Thanks to
545 Thorsten "mirabilos" Glaser for his work! Add support for
546 configuring NO_ADDONS_BSD4GRML via configuration file.
547 * Add informational header to /etc/grml/fai/apt/sources.list and
548 update docs regarding the file.
549 * If specified SUITE is unstable use 'sid' instead (to avoid breakages
