100 * Do not use /etc/grml_version but instead use /etc/debian_version

102 itself succeded but was interrupted during task_configure it should
103 be fine to re-run grml-live with -u/-b options.

113 * Introduce support for squashfs-lzma-tools 4.0-1 and support
114 configuration variable SQUASHFS_BINARY.
115 * Modify update-initramfs call in grml-live script as the
116 'update-initramfs -u -t' might fail with linux images which have been
117 build using kernel-package.
118 * templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg: add space char at end of lines in entries
119 that are meant for manual editing (so user just has to press <tab>
121 * Add 'pci=nomsi' to failsafe bootoption (thanks to Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt).
122 * Fix grml2usb bootoption in templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg.
123 * Display "Finished execution of stage 'WINDOWS_BINARIES'" only if the
124 according code has been executed (and do not display if skipping).
125 * Completely remove /lib/modules/${KERNEL}/kernel/drivers/isdn/hisax on
126 grml-small as there will be unresolved symbols without hisax.ko.

130 grml-live (0.9.21) unstable; urgency=low
135 - Split the single /etc/apt/sources.list file into structured files
136 in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/. We are using:
137 - /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grml.list for all grml related repositories
138 - /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list for official Debian repositories
140 - Provide information about grml-live version and Debian/suite
141 through /etc/grml_live_version in the generated ISO. [Closes: issue637]
142 - New graphical boot menu. Can be disabled via ISOLINUX_METHOD=console.
143 - New configuration variables DISTRI_NAME and DISTRI_INFO which should allow
144 easier rebranding of grml-live based distributions.
145 - Support installation of local files (not being part of any Debian package)
146 through $CHROOT_INSTALL.
147 - Display path of FAI logs during execution of grml-live.
148 - Replace all references to ftp.de.debian.org with cdn.debian.org,
149 see http://wiki.debian.org/DebianGeoMirror for details.
150 Thanks for the idea, Marc Haber!
152 * Bug fixes and improvements:
153 - When adjusting postfix configuration: make sure to execute newaliases
154 command after adjusting configuration, otherwise the old hostname
155 will be left inside /etc/aliases.db.
156 - grml_cleanup_chroot: get rid of /etc/lvm/cache/.cache and
157 /etc/lvm/backup/main as well.
158 - grml_cleanup_chroot: drop the /usr/include/linux checks.
159 - 90-update-alternatives: use wm-ng as default x-window-manager.
161 - Check for existence of $target/etc/apt/important_note.txt before
163 - buildd: drop GRML_LIVE_ARCH but instead use default architecture
165 - Set UTC=no by default. See http://bts.grml.org/grml/issue708 for
166 details. Credits to Ulrich Zehl for debugging. [Closes: issue708]
167 - Improve check for architecture which should be build: if not specified
168 assume a safe default and check this one.
169 - Unify variable default checks, always assume sane defaults.
170 - Always run $SUITE checks, so grml-live repository is used also
171 if suite isn't manually specified.
172 - Detect existence of stage 'boot' using boot/isolinux so grml-live
173 executed with options '-q -B' and empty boot/isolinux works as well.
174 - Introduce $NO_WINDOWS_BINARIES which replaces $WINDOWS_BINARIES so
175 we can improve sanity checks and easify configuration.
176 - Integrate memtest86+ binary so we don't ship old versions from
177 the build host. [Closes: issue717]
178 - Check whether rebuild of ISO is needed even though the ISO exists already.
181 * Debian packaging related changes:
182 - Bump to Standard-Version 3.8.3 (no further changes).
183 - Improve long description.
184 - Update copyright file (make lintian happy).
185 - Register grml-live html docs using doc-base.
188 - grml-cheatcodes: document bootoption 'nostartx'.
189 - Apply patch from Marc Haber (thanks!) for new grml cheatcodes
190 (new DCS directory feature).
192 * Software related changes:
193 - Add git-email to GRML_FULL (thanks to Joerg Woelke for mentioning).
194 - Add aesfix, aeskeyfind, bios-memimage, chaosreader, ext3grep, fatback,
195 myrescue, pipebench, safecopy, shed and xmount to GRML_FORENSIC. The
196 packages are either already available or should be available soon.
197 - Add scsitools to GRML_MEDIUM.
198 - Drop bar from GRML_FULL (no release since 2007, consider using
199 for example cpipe instead).
200 - Drop grml-saveconfig as it is replaced with recent versions
202 - Drop hydra from GRML_FULL (the license is not a clean GPL one).
203 - Drop icedax from GRML_FULL (we have schilyutils available).
206 * Update MirOS bsd4grml to 20090812 and sync menu.lst, grub.cfg,
207 isolinux.cfg, syslinux.cfg with each other; provide a fallback
208 way to boot MirOS bsd4grml from both GRUB versions using modules.
209 * Fix going back to GNU GRUB from ldbsd.com via alternative boot method;
210 while here, add the grml release info to the appropriate file.

223 - Drop fcoretools (see #534542).
224 - Drop gdk-imlib11 (see #522810).
225 - Drop gqcam (still depends on gtk1.2).
226 - Drop hping2 (hping3 is available in all relevant Debian releases
227 nowadays, see #533275).
228 - Drop libpam-pwgen (see #511613).
229 - Drop rgpsp (owner set to Debian QA Group and package doesn't seem
230 to be that important for grml).
231 - Drop windowlab (see #410618).
232 - Drop workbone (see #429178).
233 * Add check for valid Debian suite name to avoid breakage of sources.list
234 if someone calls grml-live with a typo in the -s option.

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

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

421 * Split package into grml-live and grml-live-addons.
422 Add grml-live-addons to Recommends of package grml-live.
423 Package grml-live-addons provides the templates/boot/addons
424 files that require >7MB of disk space overall so we don't
425 want to ship it with default grml:
434 * Add ${misc:Depends} to binary packages' depend.
435 * Bump Standard-Version to 3.8.1 (no further changes).
436 * Install /etc/grml/fai/live-initramfs/live.conf only if
437 /etc/live.conf does not exist in the target yet.
438 * Update isolinux.bin to version 2:3.75+dfsg-1 (3.75 Debian-2009-04-17)
440 * Integrate HDT ("Hardware Detection Tool") as bootoption 'hdt'.

442 Thanks for the point, formorer!
443 Use pci.ids from http://pciids.sourceforge.net/
444 * Mention bsd and hdt in isolinux' bootsplash f3.
445 * Mention readonly, hdt and bsd bootoptions in grml-cheatcodes.txt.
446 * Slightly improve 'grml2ram' vs 'grml toram' description in bootsplash.
447 * Software related changes:
448 - Add virtualbox-ose-guest-x11 to GRML_FULL and GRML_MEDIUM.
449 - Add virtualbox-ose-guest-modules-2.6.28-grml to GRML_MEDIUM.
450 - Add speakup-tools to GRML_FULL.
451 - Replace cupsys-bsd with cups-bsd and cupsys-client with cups-client.
452 - Drop atl2-modules-2.6.28* from package list (merged in mainline).
453 - Drop cupsys transitional package.
454 - Drop clive from GRML_FULL as it depends on a fscking large perl
455 package (see #526999).
456 - Drop gcc-4.1 gcc-4.1-base, gcc-4.2-base, gettext-base, groff-base,
457 imlib11, imlib-base and perl-base from GRML_FULL (deprecated and

465 bootoption and use maxcpus=0 instead of maxcpus=1.
466 * Add dvtm to GRML_FULL (thanks to plh).

490 Otherwise with something like 'grml64-medium-daily-squeeze 20090223'
492 "mkisofs: Volume ID string too long (cur. XX max. 32 chars)."
493 - add buildd/execute.sh to further simplify buildd/*.sh setup
494 - send_mail(): do not append /var/log/grml-buildd.stdout by default
495 - add shebang line to buildd/[execute|functions].sh to make lintian happy
496 * Replace placeholder %GRML_NAME_SQUASHFS% with according value in
497 bootsplash f5. [Closes: issue619]
498 * Drop dropbear from GRML_FULL. The "ssh server inside initramfs"
499 is just too annoying for us. [Closes: issue617]

503 grml-live (0.9.9) unstable; urgency=low
505 * Update to kernel 2.6.28-grml[64].
506 * Changes in GRML_FULL:
507 - drop package tspc (see #462738 and #515193)
508 - replace gqview with geeqie (thanks, Spida)
509 * Changes in GRML_MEDIUM:
510 - add beep (on request by gebi)
511 - add dstat (on request by gebi)
512 - add mc (on request by Christian Kuehlborn)
513 * Document noautoconfig in grml-cheatcodes. Thanks to Ralf Moll!
515 - rename all etch* related scripts to lenny*
516 - adjust scripts to use "lenny" instead of "stable" for building
517 [to avoid that "etch" is used as build name but lenny is used]
518 - use "$NAME-daily-$SUITE" in functions.sh as build name so
519 identifying ISOs while running them is easier
520 * Support squeeze as valid suite name.
521 * Comment Debian/unstable in /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences by default.
522 This should avoid issues with something like
523 'apt-get -t experimental ...'
524 * Consequently drop 'Latest change' lines from all files.
525 * Support generation of sha1sum [Testing: issue622]
526 * Drop first, unnecessary APPEND line in isolinux.cfg and syslinux.cfg.
528 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default
529 in grml-autoconfig anyway and this shortens our /proc/cmdline.
530 * Run commands requiring network access through 'timeout 10' by default
531 if possible. [Closes: issue396]
532 * Do not use build server's hostname for /etc/mailname and
533 /etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf. [Testing: issue412]
534 * Add "forensic" to the append line when using the forensic kerneloption
535 so we can grep for it in any case.
536 * 15-initsetup: keep a backup of the original runlevel.conf file.
537 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the idea! [Closes: issue570]
538 * instsoft.GRMLBASE: support installation of multiple gpg keys
539 via /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/*.key
540 * isolinux.cfg/syslinux.cfg: Drop duplicated 'MENU DEFAULT'.
541 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the bugreport!
542 * Move /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences to /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/.
543 This simplifies the directory layout a bit. Clarify its usage
544 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt
545 * Install all files from /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt. This supports
546 usage of directories like /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. Thanks for the
547 hint to Thomas Lehmann. [Closes: issue632]
548 * Replace all "sed -i 's/././' foo" calls with
549 'sed -i 's/././' foo | sponge foo' instead inside main grml-live script
550 so we don't destroy any existing symlinks. Depend on moreutils therefor.
552 * Integrate bsd4grml [hash: 987ce9a6f9ce205ba64794ed3fcac603]. This
553 provides MirBSD as bootoption 'bsd' at grml's bootprompt. Thanks to
554 Thorsten "mirabilos" Glaser for his work! Add support for
555 configuring NO_ADDONS_BSD4GRML via configuration file.
556 * Add informational header to /etc/grml/fai/apt/sources.list and
557 update docs regarding the file.
558 * If specified SUITE is unstable use 'sid' instead (to avoid breakages
560 * Support NO_ADDONS via configuration file.
561 * Always skip mksquashfs part when using -q option.
562 * Adjust configuration files on the fly only when the according lines

607 - irqbalance (Daemon to balance interrupts for SMP systems)
608 - latencytop (A tool for developers to visualize system latencies)
609 - powertop (Linux tool to find out what is using power on a laptop)
610 * Remove localepurge from GRML_SMALL.
611 * Remove mozilla-imagezoom from GRML_FULL (the "extension installed"
612 * Execute dpkg-reconfigure for localepurge with noninteractive frontend.
614 * Rework locale handling. From now on /usr/share/locale gets removed
615 by default (though /usr/share/i18n/locales won't be touched for
616 now), unless using class LOCALES. Reason: We have >70MB inside
617 /usr/share/locale on GRML_FULL, just too much to ship by default,
618 message at startup sucks).
619 * Update grml-cheatcodes.txt.
620 * Provide grml's gpg key via /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/grml.key
621 so we support offline operation as well. Based on an idea by
622 Thomas Lehmann, thanks!
623 * Generate ISO with volume label "${GRML_NAME} ${VERSION}" instead of
624 "grml $VERSION" so we propagate the according grml-name. Thanks to
626 * Support -q option to build the ISO without (re-)creating the squashfs
627 compressed file using mksquashfs.

653 of squashfs-tools as well).
654 * Activate grml-testing repository for devel releases and
655 daily snapshots. [Testing: issue531]
657 - drop lzma-modules-2.6.26-grml[64] and
