67 openvas-client and openvas-server in GRML_FULL.
68 * Do not use /etc/grml_version but instead use /etc/debian_version
69 as check whether the chroot exists. If grml-live execution
70 itself succeded but was interrupted during task_configure it should
71 be fine to re-run grml-live with -u/-b options.
72 * Fix usage of exclude option in $SQUASHFS_OPTIONS.
73 * Always remove temporary squashfs stderr file.
74 * Fix usage of /etc/runlevel.conf in 15-initsetup.

76 * Temporarly move /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grml.list in instsoft.GRMLBASE
77 to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grml.unused and restore in 33-aptsetup

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

98 grml-live (0.9.21) unstable; urgency=low
103 - Split the single /etc/apt/sources.list file into structured files
104 in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/. We are using:
105 - /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grml.list for all grml related repositories
106 - /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list for official Debian repositories
108 - Provide information about grml-live version and Debian/suite
109 through /etc/grml_live_version in the generated ISO. [Closes: issue637]
110 - New graphical boot menu. Can be disabled via ISOLINUX_METHOD=console.
111 - New configuration variables DISTRI_NAME and DISTRI_INFO which should allow
112 easier rebranding of grml-live based distributions.
113 - Support installation of local files (not being part of any Debian package)
114 through $CHROOT_INSTALL.
115 - Display path of FAI logs during execution of grml-live.
116 - Replace all references to ftp.de.debian.org with cdn.debian.org,
117 see http://wiki.debian.org/DebianGeoMirror for details.
118 Thanks for the idea, Marc Haber!
120 * Bug fixes and improvements:
121 - When adjusting postfix configuration: make sure to execute newaliases
122 command after adjusting configuration, otherwise the old hostname
123 will be left inside /etc/aliases.db.
124 - grml_cleanup_chroot: get rid of /etc/lvm/cache/.cache and
125 /etc/lvm/backup/main as well.
126 - grml_cleanup_chroot: drop the /usr/include/linux checks.
127 - 90-update-alternatives: use wm-ng as default x-window-manager.
129 - Check for existence of $target/etc/apt/important_note.txt before
131 - buildd: drop GRML_LIVE_ARCH but instead use default architecture
133 - Set UTC=no by default. See http://bts.grml.org/grml/issue708 for
134 details. Credits to Ulrich Zehl for debugging. [Closes: issue708]
135 - Improve check for architecture which should be build: if not specified
136 assume a safe default and check this one.
137 - Unify variable default checks, always assume sane defaults.
138 - Always run $SUITE checks, so grml-live repository is used also
139 if suite isn't manually specified.
140 - Detect existence of stage 'boot' using boot/isolinux so grml-live
141 executed with options '-q -B' and empty boot/isolinux works as well.
142 - Introduce $NO_WINDOWS_BINARIES which replaces $WINDOWS_BINARIES so
143 we can improve sanity checks and easify configuration.
144 - Integrate memtest86+ binary so we don't ship old versions from
145 the build host. [Closes: issue717]
146 - Check whether rebuild of ISO is needed even though the ISO exists already.
149 * Debian packaging related changes:
150 - Bump to Standard-Version 3.8.3 (no further changes).
151 - Improve long description.
152 - Update copyright file (make lintian happy).
153 - Register grml-live html docs using doc-base.
156 - grml-cheatcodes: document bootoption 'nostartx'.
157 - Apply patch from Marc Haber (thanks!) for new grml cheatcodes
158 (new DCS directory feature).
160 * Software related changes:
161 - Add git-email to GRML_FULL (thanks to Joerg Woelke for mentioning).
162 - Add aesfix, aeskeyfind, bios-memimage, chaosreader, ext3grep, fatback,
163 myrescue, pipebench, safecopy, shed and xmount to GRML_FORENSIC. The
164 packages are either already available or should be available soon.
165 - Add scsitools to GRML_MEDIUM.
166 - Drop bar from GRML_FULL (no release since 2007, consider using
167 for example cpipe instead).
168 - Drop grml-saveconfig as it is replaced with recent versions
170 - Drop hydra from GRML_FULL (the license is not a clean GPL one).
171 - Drop icedax from GRML_FULL (we have schilyutils available).
174 * Update MirOS bsd4grml to 20090812 and sync menu.lst, grub.cfg,
175 isolinux.cfg, syslinux.cfg with each other; provide a fallback
176 way to boot MirOS bsd4grml from both GRUB versions using modules.
177 * Fix going back to GNU GRUB from ldbsd.com via alternative boot method;
178 while here, add the grml release info to the appropriate file.

191 - Drop fcoretools (see #534542).
192 - Drop gdk-imlib11 (see #522810).
193 - Drop gqcam (still depends on gtk1.2).

195 nowadays, see #533275).
196 - Drop libpam-pwgen (see #511613).
197 - Drop rgpsp (owner set to Debian QA Group and package doesn't seem
198 to be that important for grml).
199 - Drop windowlab (see #410618).
200 - Drop workbone (see #429178).
201 * Add check for valid Debian suite name to avoid breakage of sources.list

203 * Add exception for libewf1 and libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2 in
204 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/40-deborphan.

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

494 * Drop first, unnecessary APPEND line in isolinux.cfg and syslinux.cfg.
496 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default

511 This simplifies the directory layout a bit. Clarify its usage
512 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt

514 usage of directories like /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. Thanks for the

521 provides MirBSD as bootoption 'bsd' at grml's bootprompt. Thanks to

1163 activated if you are building against unstable/sid and should
1164 be used manually only if you realy know what you are doing.
1165 Notice: if something fails inside building the base chroot/
1166 debootstrap system we can't do anything via grml-live for you
