+
+ <h3>About</h3>
+
+ <p>This Grml release provides fresh software packages from Debian
+ testing (AKA jessie). As usual it also incorporates up2date hardware
+ support and fixes known bugs from the previous Grml
+ release.</p>
+
+ <h3>New features</h3>
+
+ <ul>
+
+ <li>new boot option <em>getfile.retries=...</em>: by specifying a number it controls the number of download retries for the netscript=... and netscript=... boot options (defaults to '10' if unset), usage example: 'getfile.retries=42'
+
+ <li><a href="/grml2usb/">grml2usb</a>: improved check for bootflag, new option --skip-bootflag and Python3 support
+
+ <li>grml-quickconfig: display IP and password if ssh boot option is used
+
+ <li>grml-lang: support language settings for Italy
+
+ <li>grml-hwinfo: support i2c-tools's decode-dimms, edac-utils and mcelog
+
+ <li><a href="/zsh/">grml-zshrc</a>:
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>rework and unify $PATH handling
+ <li>several improvements in battery information/reporting (incl. support for FreeBSD + OpenBSD)
+ <li>extend dchange() to support apt-get and multiple package names
+ </ul>
+
+ </li>
+
+ <li><a href="/grml-debootstrap/">grml-debootstrap</a>:
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>Adjust locale handling (LANG/LANGUAGE) to match with Debian wheezy defaults
+ <li>Initial packer/vagrant/autotest setup
+ <li>New option --vm to install VMs into LVs and such
+ <li>New option --defaultinterfaces to install default /etc/network/interfaces
+ <li>Set up default /etc/network/interfaces with dhcp for eth0 in VM use case
+ <li>Copy /etc/network/interfaces from host system, unless --nointerfaces is used or target is a VM
+ <li>Support --nokernel option to skip installation of default kernel images
+ <li>Support execution of --grub when installing to target directory
+ <li>Switch default filesystem from ext3 to ext4
+ <li>Provide --debug option for very verbose execution
+ </ul>
+
+ </li>
+
+ </ul>
+
+ <h3>Important Changes</h3>
+
+ <ul>
+
+ <li>Switch from http.debian.net to ftp.debian.org as default mirror in grml-live: because of unreliable mirror usage with http.debian.net the grml-live system uses ftp.debian.org as its main mirror
+
+ </ul>
+
+ <h3>Bits & bolts</h3>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>Linux kernel is based on <b>3.16.7</b>.</li>
+ <li>Fixed several bugs from the <a href="http://bts.grml.org/grml/">bug tracking system</a>.</li>
+ </ul>
