17 * Changed isolinux vesamenu layout to support better multiiso layout.
20 * Update MirOS bsd4grml to 20091019.

30 xtables-addons-common).
31 - Drop harden-remoteaudit + openvas-server from GRML_FULL (they
32 are pretty useless without plugins which need just too much space).
33 * Rework variable replacements in templates. Now the %VAR% strings
34 in the templates match with the ones used inside grml-live ($VAR),
35 currently ARCH, DATE, DISTRI_INFO, DISTRI_NAME, DISTRI_SPLASH,
36 GRML_NAME, SQUASHFS_NAME, RELEASE_INFO, SHORT_NAME and VERSION
37 are supported. If you use your own templates from older grml-live
38 versions please make sure to adjust them.

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

136 configuration variable SQUASHFS_BINARY.
137 * Modify update-initramfs call in grml-live script as the
138 'update-initramfs -u -t' might fail with linux images which have been
139 build using kernel-package.
140 * templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg: add space char at end of lines in entries
141 that are meant for manual editing (so user just has to press <tab>
143 * Add 'pci=nomsi' to failsafe bootoption (thanks to Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt).
144 * Fix grml2usb bootoption in templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg.

146 according code has been executed (and do not display if skipping).

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

245 - Drop fcoretools (see #534542).
246 - Drop gdk-imlib11 (see #522810).
247 - Drop gqcam (still depends on gtk1.2).
248 - Drop hping2 (hping3 is available in all relevant Debian releases
249 nowadays, see #533275).
250 - Drop libpam-pwgen (see #511613).
251 - Drop rgpsp (owner set to Debian QA Group and package doesn't seem
252 to be that important for grml).
253 - Drop windowlab (see #410618).
254 - Drop workbone (see #429178).
255 * Add check for valid Debian suite name to avoid breakage of sources.list
256 if someone calls grml-live with a typo in the -s option.

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

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

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

529 - drop package tspc (see #462738 and #515193)
530 - replace gqview with geeqie (thanks, Spida)
531 * Changes in GRML_MEDIUM:

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

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

633 * Remove mozilla-imagezoom from GRML_FULL (the "extension installed"

636 * Rework locale handling. From now on /usr/share/locale gets removed
637 by default (though /usr/share/i18n/locales won't be touched for
638 now), unless using class LOCALES. Reason: We have >70MB inside
639 /usr/share/locale on GRML_FULL, just too much to ship by default,

644 Thomas Lehmann, thanks!
645 * Generate ISO with volume label "${GRML_NAME} ${VERSION}" instead of

1059 Quoting the NEWS file of FAI:
1060 - LOGDIR is now /var/log/fai/$HOSTNAME/$FAI_ACTION_date+time
