+ <h1>Release Notes:<br />grml-small 0.3 - codename <a
+ href="/faq/#releasename">Zwergenaufstand</a> (20061206)</h1>
+
+ <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. Due to on-the-fly decompression grml includes about 2.1
+ GiB of software and documentation on the CD.</p>
+
+ <p>Whereas grml provides about 2.1 GB of software on a 700 MB
+ ISO, grml-small is a flavor with only ~58 MB ISO-size (~170 MB
+ uncompressed). It does not provide a lot of software but the
+ essential stuff for being a rescue system on a business card
+ CD-ROM or a small USB device. You can use the Debian package
+ management system to install software on the fly (assuming you
+ have network access to a Debian mirror). Take a look at the '<a
+ href="/files/">Debian-Information'-section</a> if you are
+ searching for the package list.</p>
+
+ <p><strong><a href="/donations/">We do need your help!</a></strong></p>
+
+ <h3>Bugfixes</h3>
+
+ <p>Fixed several bugs and and issues reported on <a
+ href="http://wiki.grml.org/doku.php?id=grml-small_0.2">grml-small_0.2
+ @ grml-wiki</a>.</p>
+
+ <h3>New features</h3>
+
+ <p>Several improved, updated and extended configuration files.</p>
+
+ <p>Synched all grml-packages with the ones used in grml 0.9,
+ providing several new and improved features.</p>
+
+ <h3>Kernel</h3>
+
+ <p>Based on vanilla kernel 2.6.18.3 including <a
+ href="/kernel/">several patches</a>. See <a
+ href="/kernel/">grml.org/kernel/</a> for more details.</p>
+
+ <h3>Important Changes</h3>
+
+ <p><strong>swap partitions:</strong> by default grml does
+ <strong>not</strong> automatically use swap partitions anymore.
+ Run 'grml-swapon' when running grml or boot using 'grml swap'
+ for enabling all detected and usable swap partitions.</p>
+
+ <p><strong>software raid:</strong> starting with grml-small 0.3
+ booting the system searches for present software raid arrays.
+ The configuration file /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf will be generated
+ by default, to disable this feature use the bootopion noswraid.
+ The arrays are <strong>not</strong> autoassembled by default.
+ Either boot using the bootoption swraid or run 'Start
+ mdadm-raid' when running grml already to assemble present
+ software raid arrays.</p>
+
+ <p><strong>zsh global aliases:</strong> the global aliases setup
+ has been changed; now the global aliases (like: 'G' is same
+ '|grep') are not enabled by default any more, instead a new
+ setup named 'powerful abbreviation expansion' is available.
+ Usage example: type 'N' and press ',.' to expand the 'N' into
+ '&>/dev/null'. Take a look at <a
+ href="/zsh/#grmlzshrefcard">the grml zsh refcard</a> for more
+ details.</p>
