19 - Add workaround to get around the mkisofs volume label limit.
20 Otherwise with something like 'grml64-medium-daily-squeeze 20090223'
22 "mkisofs: Volume ID string too long (cur. XX max. 32 chars)."
23 - add buildd/execute.sh to further simplify buildd/*.sh setup
24 - send_mail(): do not append /var/log/grml-buildd.stdout by default
25 - add shebang line to buildd/[execute|functions].sh to make lintian happy
26 * Replace placeholder %GRML_NAME_SQUASHFS% with according value in
27 bootsplash f5. [Closes: issue619]
28 * Drop dropbear from GRML_FULL. The "ssh server inside initramfs"

33 grml-live (0.9.9) unstable; urgency=low
35 * Update to kernel 2.6.28-grml[64].
36 * Changes in GRML_FULL:
37 - drop package tspc (see #462738 and #515193)
38 - replace gqview with geeqie (thanks, Spida)
39 * Changes in GRML_MEDIUM:
40 - add beep (on request by gebi)
41 - add dstat (on request by gebi)
42 - add mc (on request by Christian Kuehlborn)
43 * Document noautoconfig in grml-cheatcodes. Thanks to Ralf Moll!
45 - rename all etch* related scripts to lenny*
46 - adjust scripts to use "lenny" instead of "stable" for building
47 [to avoid that "etch" is used as build name but lenny is used]
48 - use "$NAME-daily-$SUITE" in functions.sh as build name so
49 identifying ISOs while running them is easier
50 * Support squeeze as valid suite name.
51 * Comment Debian/unstable in /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences by default.
52 This should avoid issues with something like
53 'apt-get -t experimental ...'
54 * Consequently drop 'Latest change' lines from all files.
55 * Support generation of sha1sum [Testing: issue622]
56 * Drop first, unnecessary APPEND line in isolinux.cfg and syslinux.cfg.
58 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default
59 in grml-autoconfig anyway and this shortens our /proc/cmdline.
60 * Run commands requiring network access through 'timeout 10' by default
61 if possible. [Closes: issue396]
62 * Do not use build server's hostname for /etc/mailname and
63 /etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf. [Testing: issue412]
64 * Add "forensic" to the append line when using the forensic kerneloption
65 so we can grep for it in any case.
66 * 15-initsetup: keep a backup of the original runlevel.conf file.
67 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the idea! [Closes: issue570]
68 * instsoft.GRMLBASE: support installation of multiple gpg keys
69 via /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/*.key
70 * isolinux.cfg/syslinux.cfg: Drop duplicated 'MENU DEFAULT'.
71 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the bugreport!
72 * Move /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences to /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/.
73 This simplifies the directory layout a bit. Clarify its usage
74 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt
75 * Install all files from /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt. This supports
76 usage of directories like /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. Thanks for the
77 hint to Thomas Lehmann. [Closes: issue632]
78 * Replace all "sed -i 's/././' foo" calls with
79 'sed -i 's/././' foo | sponge foo' instead inside main grml-live script
80 so we don't destroy any existing symlinks. Depend on moreutils therefor.
82 * Integrate bsd4grml [hash: 987ce9a6f9ce205ba64794ed3fcac603]. This
83 provides MirBSD as bootoption 'bsd' at grml's bootprompt. Thanks to
84 Thorsten "mirabilos" Glaser for his work! Add support for
85 configuring NO_ADDONS_BSD4GRML via configuration file.
86 * Add informational header to /etc/grml/fai/apt/sources.list and
87 update docs regarding the file.
88 * If specified SUITE is unstable use 'sid' instead (to avoid breakages
90 * Support NO_ADDONS via configuration file.
91 * Always skip mksquashfs part when using -q option.
92 * Adjust configuration files on the fly only when the according lines

132 - fcoretools (Tools to advise the IO scheduler)
133 - latencytop (A tool for developers to visualize system latencies)
134 - qiv (A quick image viewer for X)
135 - speakup-modules-2.6.26-grml64 (support speakup on amd64 as well)
136 * Add irqbalance to GRML_MEDIUM.
137 - irqbalance (Daemon to balance interrupts for SMP systems)
138 - latencytop (A tool for developers to visualize system latencies)
139 - powertop (Linux tool to find out what is using power on a laptop)
140 * Remove localepurge from GRML_SMALL.
141 * Remove mozilla-imagezoom from GRML_FULL (the "extension installed"
142 * Execute dpkg-reconfigure for localepurge with noninteractive frontend.
144 * Rework locale handling. From now on /usr/share/locale gets removed
145 by default (though /usr/share/i18n/locales won't be touched for
146 now), unless using class LOCALES. Reason: We have >70MB inside
147 /usr/share/locale on GRML_FULL, just too much to ship by default,
148 message at startup sucks).
149 * Update grml-cheatcodes.txt.
150 * Provide grml's gpg key via /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/grml.key
151 so we support offline operation as well. Based on an idea by
152 Thomas Lehmann, thanks!
153 * Generate ISO with volume label "${GRML_NAME} ${VERSION}" instead of
154 "grml $VERSION" so we propagate the according grml-name. Thanks to
156 * Support -q option to build the ISO without (re-)creating the squashfs
157 compressed file using mksquashfs.

166 * Handle policy-rc.d in /etc/grml/fai/config/hooks/updatebase.GRMLBASE
167 because we have to skip FAI's updatebase task and lack /proc therefore.
168 New packages that are being installed and want to start any daemons

183 of squashfs-tools as well).
184 * Activate grml-testing repository for devel releases and
185 daily snapshots. [Testing: issue531]
187 - drop lzma-modules-2.6.26-grml[64] and
188 squashfs-modules-2.6.26-grml[64] as we have it
189 in-tree of kernel 2.6.26-grml[64].

193 cdrtools suite in grml
195 - replace rt73-module-2.6.26-grml with rt73-modules-2.6.26-grml.
197 - several improvements to keep the ISO size as small as possible

702 * Added FAI patches to /usr/share/grml-live/patches/ - it's
703 recommended to apply the patches to FAI until they are accepted
704 upstream. See Debian's BTS for more details: #444210, #447080
706 * Support option '-u' for updating system.
707 * Reworked buildd concept.

709 /usr/share/grml-live/buildd/functions.sh for generic stuff
710 and /etc/grml/grml-buildd.conf as configuration file.

722 $ZERO_LOGFILE for cleaning up logs.
723 * Added new grml-repository named grml-live which is intented
724 to fix issues from Debian for grml-live builds. It is automatically
725 activated if you are building against unstable/sid and should
726 be used manually only if you realy know what you are doing.
727 Notice: if something fails inside building the base chroot/
728 debootstrap system we can't do anything via grml-live for you
729 right now. Instead grab the base.tgz from http://daily.grml.org/
