136 * Do not use /etc/grml_version but instead use /etc/debian_version
137 as check whether the chroot exists. If grml-live execution
138 itself succeded but was interrupted during task_configure it should
139 be fine to re-run grml-live with -u/-b options.
140 * Fix usage of exclude option in $SQUASHFS_OPTIONS.

149 * Introduce support for squashfs-lzma-tools 4.0-1 and support
150 configuration variable SQUASHFS_BINARY.
151 * Modify update-initramfs call in grml-live script as the
152 'update-initramfs -u -t' might fail with linux images which have been
153 build using kernel-package.
154 * templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg: add space char at end of lines in entries
155 that are meant for manual editing (so user just has to press <tab>
157 * Add 'pci=nomsi' to failsafe bootoption (thanks to Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt).
158 * Fix grml2usb bootoption in templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg.
159 * Display "Finished execution of stage 'WINDOWS_BINARIES'" only if the
160 according code has been executed (and do not display if skipping).

166 grml-live (0.9.21) unstable; urgency=low
171 - Split the single /etc/apt/sources.list file into structured files
172 in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/. We are using:
173 - /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grml.list for all grml related repositories
174 - /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list for official Debian repositories
176 - Provide information about grml-live version and Debian/suite
177 through /etc/grml_live_version in the generated ISO. [Closes: issue637]
178 - New graphical boot menu. Can be disabled via ISOLINUX_METHOD=console.
179 - New configuration variables DISTRI_NAME and DISTRI_INFO which should allow
180 easier rebranding of grml-live based distributions.
181 - Support installation of local files (not being part of any Debian package)
182 through $CHROOT_INSTALL.
183 - Display path of FAI logs during execution of grml-live.
184 - Replace all references to ftp.de.debian.org with cdn.debian.org,
185 see http://wiki.debian.org/DebianGeoMirror for details.
186 Thanks for the idea, Marc Haber!
188 * Bug fixes and improvements:
189 - When adjusting postfix configuration: make sure to execute newaliases
190 command after adjusting configuration, otherwise the old hostname
191 will be left inside /etc/aliases.db.
192 - grml_cleanup_chroot: get rid of /etc/lvm/cache/.cache and
193 /etc/lvm/backup/main as well.
194 - grml_cleanup_chroot: drop the /usr/include/linux checks.
195 - 90-update-alternatives: use wm-ng as default x-window-manager.
197 - Check for existence of $target/etc/apt/important_note.txt before
199 - buildd: drop GRML_LIVE_ARCH but instead use default architecture
201 - Set UTC=no by default. See http://bts.grml.org/grml/issue708 for
202 details. Credits to Ulrich Zehl for debugging. [Closes: issue708]
203 - Improve check for architecture which should be build: if not specified
204 assume a safe default and check this one.
205 - Unify variable default checks, always assume sane defaults.
206 - Always run $SUITE checks, so grml-live repository is used also
207 if suite isn't manually specified.
208 - Detect existence of stage 'boot' using boot/isolinux so grml-live
209 executed with options '-q -B' and empty boot/isolinux works as well.
210 - Introduce $NO_WINDOWS_BINARIES which replaces $WINDOWS_BINARIES so
211 we can improve sanity checks and easify configuration.
212 - Integrate memtest86+ binary so we don't ship old versions from
213 the build host. [Closes: issue717]
214 - Check whether rebuild of ISO is needed even though the ISO exists already.
217 * Debian packaging related changes:
218 - Bump to Standard-Version 3.8.3 (no further changes).
219 - Improve long description.
220 - Update copyright file (make lintian happy).
221 - Register grml-live html docs using doc-base.
224 - grml-cheatcodes: document bootoption 'nostartx'.
225 - Apply patch from Marc Haber (thanks!) for new grml cheatcodes
226 (new DCS directory feature).
228 * Software related changes:
229 - Add git-email to GRML_FULL (thanks to Joerg Woelke for mentioning).
230 - Add aesfix, aeskeyfind, bios-memimage, chaosreader, ext3grep, fatback,
231 myrescue, pipebench, safecopy, shed and xmount to GRML_FORENSIC. The
232 packages are either already available or should be available soon.
233 - Add scsitools to GRML_MEDIUM.
234 - Drop bar from GRML_FULL (no release since 2007, consider using
235 for example cpipe instead).
236 - Drop grml-saveconfig as it is replaced with recent versions
238 - Drop hydra from GRML_FULL (the license is not a clean GPL one).
239 - Drop icedax from GRML_FULL (we have schilyutils available).
242 * Update MirOS bsd4grml to 20090812 and sync menu.lst, grub.cfg,
243 isolinux.cfg, syslinux.cfg with each other; provide a fallback
244 way to boot MirOS bsd4grml from both GRUB versions using modules.
245 * Fix going back to GNU GRUB from ldbsd.com via alternative boot method;
246 while here, add the grml release info to the appropriate file.

260 - Drop gdk-imlib11 (see #522810).
261 - Drop gqcam (still depends on gtk1.2).

263 nowadays, see #533275).
264 - Drop libpam-pwgen (see #511613).
265 - Drop rgpsp (owner set to Debian QA Group and package doesn't seem
266 to be that important for grml).
267 - Drop windowlab (see #410618).
268 - Drop workbone (see #429178).
269 * Add check for valid Debian suite name to avoid breakage of sources.list
270 if someone calls grml-live with a typo in the -s option.

272 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/40-deborphan.

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

455 grml-live (0.9.13) unstable; urgency=low
457 * Split package into grml-live and grml-live-addons.
458 Add grml-live-addons to Recommends of package grml-live.
459 Package grml-live-addons provides the templates/boot/addons
460 files that require >7MB of disk space overall so we don't
461 want to ship it with default grml:
470 * Add ${misc:Depends} to binary packages' depend.
471 * Bump Standard-Version to 3.8.1 (no further changes).
472 * Install /etc/grml/fai/live-initramfs/live.conf only if

548 - add mc (on request by Christian Kuehlborn)
549 * Document noautoconfig in grml-cheatcodes. Thanks to Ralf Moll!
551 - rename all etch* related scripts to lenny*
552 - adjust scripts to use "lenny" instead of "stable" for building
553 [to avoid that "etch" is used as build name but lenny is used]
554 - use "$NAME-daily-$SUITE" in functions.sh as build name so
555 identifying ISOs while running them is easier
556 * Support squeeze as valid suite name.
557 * Comment Debian/unstable in /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences by default.
558 This should avoid issues with something like
559 'apt-get -t experimental ...'
560 * Consequently drop 'Latest change' lines from all files.
561 * Support generation of sha1sum [Testing: issue622]
562 * Drop first, unnecessary APPEND line in isolinux.cfg and syslinux.cfg.
564 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default
565 in grml-autoconfig anyway and this shortens our /proc/cmdline.
566 * Run commands requiring network access through 'timeout 10' by default
567 if possible. [Closes: issue396]
568 * Do not use build server's hostname for /etc/mailname and
569 /etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf. [Testing: issue412]
570 * Add "forensic" to the append line when using the forensic kerneloption
571 so we can grep for it in any case.
572 * 15-initsetup: keep a backup of the original runlevel.conf file.
573 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the idea! [Closes: issue570]

575 via /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/*.key
576 * isolinux.cfg/syslinux.cfg: Drop duplicated 'MENU DEFAULT'.
577 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the bugreport!
578 * Move /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences to /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/.
579 This simplifies the directory layout a bit. Clarify its usage
580 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt
581 * Install all files from /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt. This supports
582 usage of directories like /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. Thanks for the
583 hint to Thomas Lehmann. [Closes: issue632]
584 * Replace all "sed -i 's/././' foo" calls with
585 'sed -i 's/././' foo | sponge foo' instead inside main grml-live script
586 so we don't destroy any existing symlinks. Depend on moreutils therefor.
588 * Integrate bsd4grml [hash: 987ce9a6f9ce205ba64794ed3fcac603]. This
589 provides MirBSD as bootoption 'bsd' at grml's bootprompt. Thanks to
590 Thorsten "mirabilos" Glaser for his work! Add support for
591 configuring NO_ADDONS_BSD4GRML via configuration file.
592 * Add informational header to /etc/grml/fai/apt/sources.list and
593 update docs regarding the file.
594 * If specified SUITE is unstable use 'sid' instead (to avoid breakages
