1 grml-live (0.17.0) unstable; urgency=low
3 1) The sources.list handling has been further improved and
4 better integrated, config variable $GRML_LIVE_SOURCES has gone.
6 2) This release provides initial support for generating netboot
7 packages during build process (enabled by default).
9 3) If the according dependencies are available (xorriso
10 >=1.1.6-1 on buildsystem, grub-efi-amd64-bin inside chroot and
11 building using AMD64 class) then the ISOs provide initial UEFI
14 4) For better integration with Jenkins a report of missing
15 packages in xunit format is generated and new options -A (for
16 ensuring clean builds and pack artifacts), -T (for unpacking
17 chroot archives) and -U (to ensure output files ownership) has
20 5) Using the SOURCES class provides support to retrieve Debian
21 package sources in the build process.

25 grml-live (0.15.0) unstable; urgency=low
27 1) The new command line option -D supports setting a
28 configuration directory instead of /etc/grml/fai. This is
29 the same as setting GRML_FAI_CONFIG.
31 2) Removed /etc/grml/fai/apt/sources.list, thanks to a redesign
32 of sources.list handling which provides a more consistent
33 approach. /etc/apt/sources.list will no longer use entries from
34 GRML_LIVE_SOURCES once the system has been initially installed.
35 Now handling of sources.list works as follows:
37 ${GRML_FAI_CONFIG}/config/files/etc/apt/sources.list/GRML_LIVE_SOURCES_LIST
38 is generated based on $GRML_LIVE_SOURCES (if set by the user,
39 otherwise falling back to Grml repositories plus Debian). This
40 GRML_LIVE_SOURCES_LIST file then gets deployed on *fresh*
41 deployments. It won't be installed again when running grml-live
42 -u. This provides more flexibility combined with a more
43 transparent and consistent behaviour for the user.
45 /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list will be set up based on the
46 detected Debian suite and the files from
47 ${GRML_FAI_CONFIG}/config/files/etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list/DEBIAN_*.
49 /etc/apt/sources.list/grml-stable.list will be deployed and
50 (depending on the build type) also
51 /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grml-testing.list might be installed.

55 grml-live (0.9.35) unstable; urgency=low
57 The files from /etc/grml/fai/files have been moved to
58 /etc/grml/fai/config/files (and as a consequence
59 /etc/grml/fai/live-initramfs has been moved to
60 /etc/grml/fai/config/ as well). This is an important step
61 to use the config space and class concept of FAI in a more
62 decent and clean way. It allows much better customization.
64 Please notice: If you didn't modify anything inside
65 /etc/grml/fai/files you can safely remove the directory.
66 Otherwise please check out the structure of the new
67 /etc/grml/fai/config/files layout and the fcopy command
68 used in /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/* scripts to
69 incoorporate your changes.

73 grml-live (0.9.34) unstable; urgency=low
75 This version introduces an additional package named grml-live-db.
76 The grml-live-db Debian package provides a simple way to put build
77 information of grml-live into a database. By default you have to do
78 nothing but install grml-live-db and during each invocation of
79 grml-live you'll get an additional entry in the sqlite3 database
80 /var/log/grml-live.db. If you want to customize the database logging
81 check out the grml-live-db manpage.
83 Instead of ZERO_LOGFILE a new variable titled PRESERVE_LOGFILE has
84 been introduced. By default grml-live cleans the build logfile so
85 grml-live-db can work straight out-of-the-box. If you still want to
86 preserve your logfiles (e.g. when you don't want to use
87 grml-live-db) just enable the PRESERVE_LOGFILE option in your
88 grml-live configuration file. For backwards compatibility reasons the
89 ZERO_LOGFILE variable is still supported within grml-live but it's
90 strongly recommended to adjust configuration.

94 grml-live (0.9.4) unstable; urgency=low
96 grml provides its own squashfs-tools again which support LZMA
97 compression with kernel 2.6.26-grml[64], please install the
98 Debian package squashfs-lzma-tools of the grml repository.
99 More details can be found in the grml-live docs. Please
100 check out the section "Current state of grml-live with
101 squashfs-tools and kernel" in the grml-live docs, being
102 shipped with this package as manpage grml-live(8) and
103 /usr/share/doc/grml-live/grml-live.html and being available
104 online at http://grml.org/grml-live/#current_state as well.
106 grml migrated from Mercurial (hg) to Git as version control
107 system. If you are interested in using very recent grml-live
108 versions from our VCS please make sure to check out the docs.

113 grml-live (0.9) unstable; urgency=low
115 grml-live 0.9 features kernel 2.6.26-grml[64]. Using
116 squashfs-tools 1:3.2r2-9exp1 does not work with kernel
117 2.6.26-grml when using LZMA compression though it works
118 fine when using ZLIB compression.
120 Debian provides updated squashfs-tools 1:3.3-7. You can
121 safely upgrade as long as you don't need kernel
122 2.6.23-grml[64] and/or LZMA compression.
124 All these details can be found in the grml-live docs. Please
125 check out the section "Current state of grml-live with
126 squashfs-tools and kernel" in the grml-live docs, being
127 shipped with this package as manpage grml-live(8) and
128 /usr/share/doc/grml-live/grml-live.html and being available
129 online at http://grml.org/grml-live/#current_state as well.

133 grml-live (0.0.4) unstable; urgency=low
135 The -t option for specifying the output directory has been
136 renamed into -o. The option -t now specifies the place where
137 templates for building the ISO can be found.
138 Do not forget to adjust present scripts you use with grml-live.
