- <h1>Release Notes:<br />grml 1.1-rc1 - codename <a
- href="/faq/#releasename">Skunk</a> (20071228)</h1>
-
- <p><strong>Notice: grml 1.1-rc1 is a RELEASE CANDIDATE and not
- yet the stable release!</strong></p>
-
- <h3>About</h3>
-
- <p>grml is a Debian-based Live-CD. It includes a collection of GNU/Linux
- software especially for users of texttools and system administrators.
- grml provides automatic hardware detection. You can use grml for example
- as a rescue system, for analyzing systems/networks or as a working
- environment. It is not necessary to install anything to a harddisk, you
- don't even need a harddisk to run it, unless you want to (use grml2hd
- for this). Due to on-the-fly decompression grml includes about 2.1GB
- of software and documentation on the CD.</p>
-
- <h3>Bugfixes</h3>
-
- <p>Fixed several bugs and issues reported on <a
- href="http://wiki.grml.org/doku.php?id=grml_1.0">grml_1.0 @
- grml-wiki</a>.</p>
-
- <h3>New features</h3>
-
- <p>Several improved, updated and extended configuration files.</p>
-
- <h4>New grml-scripts:</h4>
-
- <ul>
-
- <li><strong>arename.pl</strong>: rename audio files by looking at a file's tagging
- information</li>
-
- <li><a href="/grml-live/"><strong>grml-live</strong></a>: build
- framework based on <a
- href="http://fai-project.org/">FAI</a> for generating
- a grml and Debian based Linux Live system (CD/ISO)</li>
-
- </ul>
-
- <h4>New bootparameters/cheatcodes:</h4>
-
- <ul>
-
- <li><strong>micvol</strong>: configure mixer/ volume settings of
- microphone channel; usage: micvol=$number
-
- <li><strong>noconsolefont</strong>: skip setting console font via
- consolechars
-
- <li><strong>nogrmlacpi</strong>: disable acpi stuff inside
- grml-autoconfig without having to boot using noacpi (which triggers
- kernel code actions)
-
- <li><strong>lvm</strong>: activate present Logical Volumes (LVM)
-
- <li><strong>nolvm</strong>: completely disable LVM code/checks; by
- default (so without using a special bootoption) grml runs 'lvdisplay'
- and if something can be found the user gets a hint to execute 'Start
- lvm2' to set it up
-
- </ul>
-
- <h4><a href="/grml2hd/">grml2hd</a> (install grml to harddisk):</h4>
-
- <ul>
-
- <li>use --insecure for passwordbox so user gets feedback when typing
- password (it's '***' of course and not plaintext).
-
- <li>check for dmraid signatures
-
- <li>support installation on LVM devices. Usage example:
- 'LVM=/dev/mapper/grml2hd-lvm grml2hd'</li>
-
- </ul>
-
- <p>See <a href="/grml2hd/">grml.org/grml2hd/</a> for more
- details regarding grml2hd.</p>
-
- <h4><a href="/terminalserver/">grml-terminalserver</a> (boot
- grml via network)</h4>
-
- <ul>
-
- <li>updated initrd generation for use with live-initramfs, providing a
- reworked initial bootprocess</li>
-
- </ul>
-
- <p>See <a href="/terminalserver/">grml.org/terminalserver/</a>
- for more details regarding grml-terminalserver.</p>
-
- <h4>Special new features:</h4>
-
- <ul>
-
- <li>all grml ISOs are automatically generated using the new <a
- href="/grml-live/">grml-live framework</a></li>
-
- <li>completely reworked initial bootprocess, based on live-initramfs
- now</li>
-
- <li>Squashfs with <a
- href="http://www.squashfs-lzma.org/">LZMA
- support</a></li>
-
- <li>optimised the system to have as few wakeups as possible (<25
- wakeups/s in default startup)</li>
-
- <li>updated to X.org 7.3</li>
-
- <li>updated to libc6 2.7</li>
-
- <li>the lang=-bootoption supports dvorak keyboard layouts (using
- parameters dvorak, dvorak-iso or dvorak-utf8)</li>
-
- <!--
- <li>support for Virtualbox guest additions</li>
- -->
-
- </ul>
-
- <h3>Kernel</h3>
-
- <p>Based on vanilla kernel 2.6.23.11 including <a
- href="/kernel/">several patches</a> and additional modules:</p>
-
-<pre class="rahmen">
-
- acerhk acx100 at76-usb atl2 aufs bcm5700 drbd8 exmap
- gspca ipw3945 iscsitarget ivtv kqemu linux-wlan-ng
- loop-aes lzma madwifi ndiswrapper nozomi openafs pcan
- qc-usb r1000 r5u870 r6040 realtime-lsm rt2400 rt2500 rt73
- sdricoh_cs sl-modem squashfs sysprof tp-smapi truecrypt
-
-</pre>
-
- <p>Notice: some more modules
-
- <!-- <a
- href="http://wiki.grml.org/doku.php?id=ati">fglrx</a> and <a
- href="http://wiki.grml.org/doku.php?id=nvidia">nvidia</a>)
- -->
-
- are not pre-installed but available through the <a
- href="http://deb.grml.org/">grml-repository</a>.</p>
-
- <p>See <a href="/kernel/">grml.org/kernel/</a> for more details
- regarding the grml-kernel.</p>
-
- <h3>Important Changes</h3>
-
- <p>The bootoption <strong>expert</strong> has been dropped. It is
- deprecated nowadays. The bootoption <strong>splash</strong> has been
- renamed into <em>textsplash</em> to avoid clashes with graphical
- bootsplashes.</p>
-
- <p>Due to the new initial bootprocess (which is based on
- live-initramfs) some <strong>bootoptions</strong> might not work as
- expected or changed its behaviour. The grml team is working on merging
- outstanding features. If you think you found a bootoption that does not
- work as expected/documented please <a
- href="http://grml.org/bugs/">report it</a>.</p>
-
- <h3>Packages / Software</h3>
-
- <p>Details about shipped packages and their versions on grml are
- available at the <a href="/files/#debian">Debian section</a>. See <a

- for a main package listing and <a
- href="/files/release-1.1/dpkg_list">dpkg_list</a> for a more detailed
- list of packages shipped with grml 1.1.</p>
-
- <h3>Updates</h3>
