62 openvas-client and openvas-server in GRML_FULL.
63 * Do not use /etc/grml_version but instead use /etc/debian_version
64 as check whether the chroot exists. If grml-live execution
65 itself succeded but was interrupted during task_configure it should
66 be fine to re-run grml-live with -u/-b options.
67 * Fix usage of exclude option in $SQUASHFS_OPTIONS.
68 * Always remove temporary squashfs stderr file.
69 * Fix usage of /etc/runlevel.conf in 15-initsetup.

76 * Introduce support for squashfs-lzma-tools 4.0-1 and support
77 configuration variable SQUASHFS_BINARY.
78 * Modify update-initramfs call in grml-live script as the
79 'update-initramfs -u -t' might fail with linux images which have been
80 build using kernel-package.
81 * templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg: add space char at end of lines in entries
82 that are meant for manual editing (so user just has to press <tab>
84 * Add 'pci=nomsi' to failsafe bootoption (thanks to Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt).
85 * Fix grml2usb bootoption in templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg.
86 * Display "Finished execution of stage 'WINDOWS_BINARIES'" only if the
87 according code has been executed (and do not display if skipping).
88 * Completely remove /lib/modules/${KERNEL}/kernel/drivers/isdn/hisax on
89 grml-small as there will be unresolved symbols without hisax.ko.

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

190 nowadays, see #533275).
191 - Drop libpam-pwgen (see #511613).

194 - Drop windowlab (see #410618).
195 - Drop workbone (see #429178).
196 * Add check for valid Debian suite name to avoid breakage of sources.list

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

479 - adjust scripts to use "lenny" instead of "stable" for building
480 [to avoid that "etch" is used as build name but lenny is used]
481 - use "$NAME-daily-$SUITE" in functions.sh as build name so
482 identifying ISOs while running them is easier
483 * Support squeeze as valid suite name.
484 * Comment Debian/unstable in /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences by default.

489 * Drop first, unnecessary APPEND line in isolinux.cfg and syslinux.cfg.
491 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default
492 in grml-autoconfig anyway and this shortens our /proc/cmdline.

504 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the bugreport!
505 * Move /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences to /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/.
506 This simplifies the directory layout a bit. Clarify its usage
507 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt
508 * Install all files from /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt. This supports
509 usage of directories like /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. Thanks for the
510 hint to Thomas Lehmann. [Closes: issue632]
511 * Replace all "sed -i 's/././' foo" calls with
512 'sed -i 's/././' foo | sponge foo' instead inside main grml-live script
513 so we don't destroy any existing symlinks. Depend on moreutils therefor.
515 * Integrate bsd4grml [hash: 987ce9a6f9ce205ba64794ed3fcac603]. This
516 provides MirBSD as bootoption 'bsd' at grml's bootprompt. Thanks to
517 Thorsten "mirabilos" Glaser for his work! Add support for
518 configuring NO_ADDONS_BSD4GRML via configuration file.

520 update docs regarding the file.
521 * If specified SUITE is unstable use 'sid' instead (to avoid breakages

577 * Rework locale handling. From now on /usr/share/locale gets removed
578 by default (though /usr/share/i18n/locales won't be touched for
579 now), unless using class LOCALES. Reason: We have >70MB inside
580 /usr/share/locale on GRML_FULL, just too much to ship by default,

998 FAI version 3.2.3 therefor.
999 * FAI 3.2.3 has a new log schema, adjusted grml-live accordingly.
1000 Quoting the NEWS file of FAI:
1001 - LOGDIR is now /var/log/fai/$HOSTNAME/$FAI_ACTION_date+time

1133 The "holidays? what? are you joking?!"-release.
1135 * Added FAI patches to /usr/share/grml-live/patches/ - it's

1137 upstream. See Debian's BTS for more details: #444210, #447080
1139 * Support option '-u' for updating system.
1140 * Reworked buildd concept.

1156 * Added new grml-repository named grml-live which is intented
1157 to fix issues from Debian for grml-live builds. It is automatically
1158 activated if you are building against unstable/sid and should
1159 be used manually only if you realy know what you are doing.
1160 Notice: if something fails inside building the base chroot/
1161 debootstrap system we can't do anything via grml-live for you
1162 right now. Instead grab the base.tgz from http://daily.grml.org/
1163 * Add /usr/share/grml-live/scripts/repodiff.pl (by formorer, thx!)
1164 for comparing two repositories.
