1 grml-live (0.9.24) UNRELEASED; urgency=low
4 * Update templates/GRML/grml-cheatcodes.txt: mention nodhcphostname.
5 * Changed isolinux vesamenu layout to support better multiiso layout.
8 * Software related changes:
9 - Add openvas-client, openvas-plugins-base, openvas-plugins-dfsg +
10 openvas-server to GRML_FORENSIC.
11 - Drop lcap (package is gone) from GRML_FORENSIC.
12 - Drop isic + lcap (packages gone) from GRML_FULL.
13 - Drop ipset from GRML_FULL + GRML_FORENSIC (it's part of
14 xtables-addons-common).
15 - Drop harden-remoteaudit + openvas-server from GRML_FULL (they
16 are pretty useless without plugins which need just too much space).
17 * Rework variable replacements in templates. Now the %VAR% strings
18 in the templates match with the ones used inside grml-live ($VAR),
19 currently ARCH, DATE, DISTRI_INFO, DISTRI_NAME, DISTRI_SPLASH,
20 GRML_NAME, SQUASHFS_NAME, RELEASE_INFO, SHORT_NAME and VERSION
21 are supported. If you use your own templates from older grml-live
22 versions please make sure to adjust them.
23 Thanks to Ulrich for helping with integration within grml2usb.
24 * /etc/grml/fai/config/debconf/GRMLBASE: add configuration for
25 portmap to not listen on the loopback interface only by default.

105 * Do not use /etc/grml_version but instead use /etc/debian_version
106 as check whether the chroot exists. If grml-live execution
107 itself succeded but was interrupted during task_configure it should
108 be fine to re-run grml-live with -u/-b options.
109 * Fix usage of exclude option in $SQUASHFS_OPTIONS.
110 * Always remove temporary squashfs stderr file.
111 * Fix usage of /etc/runlevel.conf in 15-initsetup.
112 * Add wicd configuration to /etc/grml/fai/config/debconf/GRMLBASE.
113 * Temporarly move /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grml.list in instsoft.GRMLBASE
114 to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grml.unused and restore in 33-aptsetup

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

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

227 - Drop ext2resize (see #400797).
228 - Drop fcoretools (see #534542).
229 - Drop gdk-imlib11 (see #522810).
230 - Drop gqcam (still depends on gtk1.2).
231 - Drop hping2 (hping3 is available in all relevant Debian releases
232 nowadays, see #533275).
233 - Drop libpam-pwgen (see #511613).
234 - Drop rgpsp (owner set to Debian QA Group and package doesn't seem
235 to be that important for grml).
236 - Drop windowlab (see #410618).
237 - Drop workbone (see #429178).
238 * Add check for valid Debian suite name to avoid breakage of sources.list
239 if someone calls grml-live with a typo in the -s option.
240 * Add exception for libewf1 and libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2 in
241 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/40-deborphan.

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

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

449 * Mention bsd and hdt in isolinux' bootsplash f3.
450 * Mention readonly, hdt and bsd bootoptions in grml-cheatcodes.txt.

513 - replace gqview with geeqie (thanks, Spida)
514 * Changes in GRML_MEDIUM:

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

544 via /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/*.key
545 * isolinux.cfg/syslinux.cfg: Drop duplicated 'MENU DEFAULT'.
546 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the bugreport!
547 * Move /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences to /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/.
548 This simplifies the directory layout a bit. Clarify its usage
549 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt
550 * Install all files from /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt. This supports
551 usage of directories like /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. Thanks for the
552 hint to Thomas Lehmann. [Closes: issue632]
553 * Replace all "sed -i 's/././' foo" calls with
554 'sed -i 's/././' foo | sponge foo' instead inside main grml-live script
555 so we don't destroy any existing symlinks. Depend on moreutils therefor.
557 * Integrate bsd4grml [hash: 987ce9a6f9ce205ba64794ed3fcac603]. This
558 provides MirBSD as bootoption 'bsd' at grml's bootprompt. Thanks to
559 Thorsten "mirabilos" Glaser for his work! Add support for
560 configuring NO_ADDONS_BSD4GRML via configuration file.
561 * Add informational header to /etc/grml/fai/apt/sources.list and
562 update docs regarding the file.
563 * If specified SUITE is unstable use 'sid' instead (to avoid breakages

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

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

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