223 * Do not use /etc/grml_version but instead use /etc/debian_version
224 as check whether the chroot exists. If grml-live execution

236 * Introduce support for squashfs-lzma-tools 4.0-1 and support
237 configuration variable SQUASHFS_BINARY.
238 * Modify update-initramfs call in grml-live script as the
239 'update-initramfs -u -t' might fail with linux images which have been
240 build using kernel-package.
241 * templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg: add space char at end of lines in entries
242 that are meant for manual editing (so user just has to press <tab>

247 according code has been executed (and do not display if skipping).

253 grml-live (0.9.21) unstable; urgency=low
258 - Split the single /etc/apt/sources.list file into structured files
259 in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/. We are using:
260 - /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grml.list for all grml related repositories
261 - /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list for official Debian repositories
263 - Provide information about grml-live version and Debian/suite
264 through /etc/grml_live_version in the generated ISO. [Closes: issue637]
265 - New graphical boot menu. Can be disabled via ISOLINUX_METHOD=console.
266 - New configuration variables DISTRI_NAME and DISTRI_INFO which should allow
267 easier rebranding of grml-live based distributions.
268 - Support installation of local files (not being part of any Debian package)
269 through $CHROOT_INSTALL.
270 - Display path of FAI logs during execution of grml-live.
271 - Replace all references to ftp.de.debian.org with cdn.debian.org,
272 see http://wiki.debian.org/DebianGeoMirror for details.
273 Thanks for the idea, Marc Haber!
275 * Bug fixes and improvements:
276 - When adjusting postfix configuration: make sure to execute newaliases
277 command after adjusting configuration, otherwise the old hostname
278 will be left inside /etc/aliases.db.
279 - grml_cleanup_chroot: get rid of /etc/lvm/cache/.cache and
280 /etc/lvm/backup/main as well.
281 - grml_cleanup_chroot: drop the /usr/include/linux checks.
282 - 90-update-alternatives: use wm-ng as default x-window-manager.
284 - Check for existence of $target/etc/apt/important_note.txt before
286 - buildd: drop GRML_LIVE_ARCH but instead use default architecture
288 - Set UTC=no by default. See http://bts.grml.org/grml/issue708 for
289 details. Credits to Ulrich Zehl for debugging. [Closes: issue708]
290 - Improve check for architecture which should be build: if not specified
291 assume a safe default and check this one.
292 - Unify variable default checks, always assume sane defaults.
293 - Always run $SUITE checks, so grml-live repository is used also
294 if suite isn't manually specified.
295 - Detect existence of stage 'boot' using boot/isolinux so grml-live
296 executed with options '-q -B' and empty boot/isolinux works as well.
297 - Introduce $NO_WINDOWS_BINARIES which replaces $WINDOWS_BINARIES so
298 we can improve sanity checks and easify configuration.
299 - Integrate memtest86+ binary so we don't ship old versions from
300 the build host. [Closes: issue717]
301 - Check whether rebuild of ISO is needed even though the ISO exists already.
304 * Debian packaging related changes:
305 - Bump to Standard-Version 3.8.3 (no further changes).

317 - Add aesfix, aeskeyfind, bios-memimage, chaosreader, ext3grep, fatback,
318 myrescue, pipebench, safecopy, shed and xmount to GRML_FORENSIC. The
319 packages are either already available or should be available soon.
320 - Add scsitools to GRML_MEDIUM.
321 - Drop bar from GRML_FULL (no release since 2007, consider using
322 for example cpipe instead).
323 - Drop grml-saveconfig as it is replaced with recent versions
325 - Drop hydra from GRML_FULL (the license is not a clean GPL one).
326 - Drop icedax from GRML_FULL (we have schilyutils available).
329 * Update MirOS bsd4grml to 20090812 and sync menu.lst, grub.cfg,
330 isolinux.cfg, syslinux.cfg with each other; provide a fallback
331 way to boot MirOS bsd4grml from both GRUB versions using modules.

333 while here, add the grml release info to the appropriate file.

350 nowadays, see #533275).
351 - Drop libpam-pwgen (see #511613).

353 to be that important for grml).
354 - Drop windowlab (see #410618).
355 - Drop workbone (see #429178).
356 * Add check for valid Debian suite name to avoid breakage of sources.list

364 - use timestamp with hour, minute and second to match with FAI style
365 * /etc/grml/fai/config/hooks/updatebase.GRMLBASE: install apt configuration
366 also when updating the chroot (this happens if we have a base.tgz available
367 on fresh installations).
368 * Document usage of STOP_ON_ERROR in /etc/grml/fai/fai.conf.
369 * Really add support for genisoimage (thanks for the bugreport, Worf).
370 * Set subdirectories of $OUTPUT independent of cmdline parsing so
371 it is possible to set it via conffile as well.
372 * Validate whether the specified architecture class matches the
373 architecture (option), otherwise installation of kernel will fail.
374 * Add 'How do I deploy grml-live on a plain Debian installation' to FAQ.
375 * Build grml-live documentation with table of content.

651 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default

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

669 usage of directories like /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. Thanks for the
670 hint to Thomas Lehmann. [Closes: issue632]
671 * Replace all "sed -i 's/././' foo" calls with

921 * Update bootsplashes to current implementation, based on
922 live-initramfs and grml-autoconfig.

941 * Finally fixed the "isolinux does not boot on old hardware" problem.
942 The problem was a too big boot/isolinux directory. Thanks a lot
943 for all the testing to Andrea Mayr and Wernfried Haas!
944 - use /boot/addons/* for allinone.img, balder10.imz, chain.c32,
946 - place $GRML_NAME in /boot/$GRML_NAME/ - this should easify
947 support of several grml flavours on one single usb pen for the future
948 - adjust grub's menu.lst and isolinux.cfg as well as grml-live itself
949 for new directory layout
950 * Make sure $GRML_NAME does not contain known problematic characters.

1314 * Log to /var/log/grml-live.log by default now and support
1315 $ZERO_LOGFILE for cleaning up logs.
1316 * Added new grml-repository named grml-live which is intented
1317 to fix issues from Debian for grml-live builds. It is automatically
1318 activated if you are building against unstable/sid and should
1319 be used manually only if you realy know what you are doing.
1320 Notice: if something fails inside building the base chroot/
1321 debootstrap system we can't do anything via grml-live for you

1376 * Update /etc/grml/fai/make-fai-nfsroot.conf
1377 * Use /var/log/fai/dirinstall/${HOSTNAME}/grml-live.log as logfile
1378 for grml-live instead of /var/log/grml-live.log so it's easier
1380 * Update of buildd scripts: main configuration file main.sh
1381 which provides all the build stuff inside separate functions.
1382 * Fall back to blackhole.pca.dfn.de as keyserver if retreiving
1383 from subkeys.pgp.net fails.
1384 * Improve check for kernel version inside
1385 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/10-build-initramfs

1397 - grml-live_autobuild_grml-small_etch.sh
1398 - grml-live_autobuild_grml-small_sid.sh
1399 - grml-live_autobuild_grml64-small_etch.sh
1400 - grml-live_autobuild_grml64-small_sid.sh
1401 * Some more FAI error checking.
1402 * Updated buildd scripts (better subject handling).
1403 * Re-enable 'Acquire::http::Pipeline-Depth' workaround'.
1404 Restore usual Debian behaviour at the end using
1405 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/99-finish-grml-build
1406 * Add new scripts for retreiving bugs via apt-listbugs
1407 and storing package selection inside log directory.
1408 This has been integrated in a new class named "RELEASE".
1409 * Added support for new kernel version 2.6.23-grml to
1411 * Use uxterm as x-terminal-emulator and fall back to xterm
1412 only it uxterm is not available.
1413 * Support /etc/locale.gen.grml - it's used by default in
1414 class GRML_FULL and a new class named LOCALES.
1415 * Work around #443481 (bug inside snort) for Debian etch
1416 via using /etc/snort/snort.common.parameters (thanks for
1417 the idea, Thomas Lange!)
1418 * Do not exit with an error code if /usr/include/linux is NOT
1419 a symlink to /usr/src/linux/include/linux but keep it as
1421 * Log executed grml-live command.
1422 * Re-enable problematic packages that have been fixed:
1423 - apt-listbugs (fixed via manual interaction in scripts)
1424 - gsm-utils (#353967)
1426 - wvdial (fixed via debconf)

1436 * The -t option for specifying the output directory has been
1437 renamed into -o. The option -t now specifies the place where
1438 templates for building the ISO can be found.
1439 * Option -t can be used for specifying the template directory.
1440 TEMPLATE_DIRECTORY can be used in /etc/grml/grml-live.conf
1441 * Check for /var/run/fai/FAI_INSTALLATION_IN_PROGRESS and exit then.
1442 * /etc/grml/fai/config/hooks/instsoft.GRMLBASE:
1443 - disable pipeline workaround
1444 - create /dev/MAKEDEV in chroot to work around the
1445 "./MAKEDEV: No such file or directory" problem of some packages
1446 * Use /var/log/grml-live.log as log file as /var/log/fai/* is too
1447 dangerous because of automatic removal of the files/dirs via fai.
1448 * Use class GRML_MEDIUM by default and document GRMLBASE, GRML_* plus
1449 I386/AMD64 classes in the docs.
1450 * Add new packages to GRML_FULL:
1451 - tgt: Linux target framework user-space tools
1452 - paperkey: extract just the secret information out ouf OpenPGP keys
1453 - gitpkg: helper scripts for maintaining packages with git
1454 - iscsitarget: iSCSI Enterprise Target userland tools
1455 - iscsitarget-module-2.6.22-grml: kernel module for iscsitarget
1456 * Set $HOSTNAME to according hostname via
1457 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/34-hosts
1458 * Adjust filename in header of /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/*.

1476 grml_cleanup_chroot.
1477 * Provide class GRML_SMALL and rename old GRML_SMALL into
1479 * Do not install kernel via GRMLBASE but via GRML_* classes
1480 instead so we have only one single kernel on the system
1481 with something like 'GRMLBASE,GRML_SMALL,REMOVE_DOCS,I386'.
1482 * Use grml-live.log as logfile.
1483 * Added vim to GRML_MEDIUM package list.
