+
+ <h3>About</h3>
+
+ <p>This release brings the Grml tools towards the upcoming Debian stable
+ release (AKA wheezy), provides up2date hardware support and fixes known
+ bugs from the previous Grml release.</p>
+
+ <h3>New features</h3>
+
+ <ul>
+
+ <li>ssh boot option: display SSH server key fingerprints
+
+ <li>grml-hwinfo: added support for lsscsi, iscsiadm,
+ proxmox/libvirt/openvz/vserver information retrieval, swapon, mdadm,
+ LVM + dmsetup, now using 'lspci -nn' for lspci output
+
+ <li>grml-live: handling firmware related packages in GRMLBASE, added
+ uuid-runtime to GRMLBASE
+
+ <li>grml-network: netcardconfig provides support to scan for available
+ wireless networks
+
+ <li>grml-udev-config: Do not set mount options for NTFS partitions to
+ "ro" any longer
+
+ <li>grml2usb: verify that the bootflag is enabled
+
+ <li>grml2iso: ISOs are dd-able by default
+
+ <li>grml-debootstrap:
+
+ <ul>
+
+ <li>Use http.debian.net as default mirror
+ <li>Set wheezy as the new default release
+ <li>Add acpi-support-base + firmware-linux-free to default package selection
+
+ </ul>
+
+ </ul>
+
+ <h3>Important Changes</h3>
+
+ <ul>
+
+ <li>/etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list no longer uses cdn.debian.net
+ for the Debian repository, instead uses snapshot.debian.org with the
+ according release date. This should make installation of additional
+ software with regards to additional dependencies easier for users.
+
+ <li>Debian's live-boot changed the path from /live/image to
+ /lib/live/mount/medium. If you're using /live/image anywhere inside
+ your own custom scripts please adopt your code to use /lib/live/mount/medium
+ starting with Grml 2013.02.
+
+ <li>Debian's live-boot changed some persistency related settings.
+ Please visit <a href="http://wiki.grml.org/doku.php?id=persistency">
+ the persistency page in the Grml wiki</a> for further details.
+
+ </ul>
+
+ <h3>Bits & bolts</h3>
