744 - Provide information about grml-live version and Debian/suite
745 through /etc/grml_live_version in the generated ISO. [Closes: issue637]
746 - New graphical boot menu. Can be disabled via ISOLINUX_METHOD=console.
747 - New configuration variables DISTRI_NAME and DISTRI_INFO which should allow
748 easier rebranding of grml-live based distributions.
749 - Support installation of local files (not being part of any Debian package)
750 through $CHROOT_INSTALL.
751 - Display path of FAI logs during execution of grml-live.
752 - Replace all references to ftp.de.debian.org with cdn.debian.org,
753 see http://wiki.debian.org/DebianGeoMirror for details.
754 Thanks for the idea, Marc Haber!
756 * Bug fixes and improvements:
757 - When adjusting postfix configuration: make sure to execute newaliases
758 command after adjusting configuration, otherwise the old hostname
759 will be left inside /etc/aliases.db.
760 - grml_cleanup_chroot: get rid of /etc/lvm/cache/.cache and
761 /etc/lvm/backup/main as well.
762 - grml_cleanup_chroot: drop the /usr/include/linux checks.
763 - 90-update-alternatives: use wm-ng as default x-window-manager.
765 - Check for existence of $target/etc/apt/important_note.txt before
767 - buildd: drop GRML_LIVE_ARCH but instead use default architecture
769 - Set UTC=no by default. See http://bts.grml.org/grml/issue708 for
770 details. Credits to Ulrich Zehl for debugging. [Closes: issue708]
771 - Improve check for architecture which should be build: if not specified
772 assume a safe default and check this one.
773 - Unify variable default checks, always assume sane defaults.
774 - Always run $SUITE checks, so grml-live repository is used also
775 if suite isn't manually specified.
776 - Detect existence of stage 'boot' using boot/isolinux so grml-live
777 executed with options '-q -B' and empty boot/isolinux works as well.
778 - Introduce $NO_WINDOWS_BINARIES which replaces $WINDOWS_BINARIES so
779 we can improve sanity checks and easify configuration.
780 - Integrate memtest86+ binary so we don't ship old versions from
781 the build host. [Closes: issue717]

800 packages are either already available or should be available soon.

803 for example cpipe instead).
804 - Drop grml-saveconfig as it is replaced with recent versions
806 - Drop hydra from GRML_FULL (the license is not a clean GPL one).
807 - Drop icedax from GRML_FULL (we have schilyutils available).
810 * Update MirOS bsd4grml to 20090812 and sync menu.lst, grub.cfg,
811 isolinux.cfg, syslinux.cfg with each other; provide a fallback
812 way to boot MirOS bsd4grml from both GRUB versions using modules.

1122 - use "$NAME-daily-$SUITE" in functions.sh as build name so

1132 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default
1133 in grml-autoconfig anyway and this shortens our /proc/cmdline.

1148 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt

1791 * Set /etc/grml_version of live-system to the according value.
1793 * Support setting /etc/debian_chroot inside chroot (useful if
1794 building fails and manual interaction is needed).
1795 * Log to /var/log/grml-live.log by default now and support
1796 $ZERO_LOGFILE for cleaning up logs.
1797 * Added new grml-repository named grml-live which is intented
1798 to fix issues from Debian for grml-live builds. It is automatically
1799 activated if you are building against unstable/sid and should
1800 be used manually only if you realy know what you are doing.
1801 Notice: if something fails inside building the base chroot/
1802 debootstrap system we can't do anything via grml-live for you
1803 right now. Instead grab the base.tgz from http://daily.grml.org/
1804 * Add /usr/share/grml-live/scripts/repodiff.pl (by formorer, thx!)
1805 for comparing two repositories.
1806 * Replaced /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/preferences
1807 with /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences so grml-live repository
1808 can be used and configured at a single place.
1809 * Use apt-pinning via /etc/grml/fai/config/hooks/instsoft.GRMLBASE
1810 and drop it from /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/33-aptsetup
1812 * Display version number of grml-live.
1813 * Log executed grml-live command line.
1814 * Set FAI_DEBOOTSTRAP_OPTS="--exclude=dhcp-client,info"
1816 * Disable Recommends inside chroot installation.
1817 * Set shared/default-x-server and xserver-xorg/config/monitor/identifier
1818 for xserver-xorg package via debconf to work around #448863.
1819 * Use "newest" kernel only if two kernels are present in the chroot.
1820 * Set $SECONDS to unknown if $start_seconds is not set.
1821 * Log closing signs (----...) via bailout to make sure they are
1822 always set - even when exiting with an error.
1823 * Check for presence of /bin/zsh before setting default shell in
1824 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/21-usersetup
1825 * Check for locales/localepurge before using them in
1826 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/25-locales
1827 * Add new packages to GRML_FULL:
1830 - libpam-thinkfinger
1831 - linux-wlan-ng-modules-2.6.23-grml
1832 - madwifi-modules-2.6.23-grml
1834 - rt73-module-2.6.23-grml
1837 * Drop idn from GRML_FULL.
1838 * Add new packages to GRML_MEDIUM:
1844 - Update kernel version to 2.6.23-grml
1845 - replace dhcp-client with dhcp3-client
1846 * Add ed package to GRML_SMALL and replace dhcp-client with
1848 * Use new kernel version 2.6.23-grml64 for amd64.

1858 * Use /var/log/fai/dirinstall/${HOSTNAME}/grml-live.log as logfile
1859 for grml-live instead of /var/log/grml-live.log so it's easier
1861 * Update of buildd scripts: main configuration file main.sh
1862 which provides all the build stuff inside separate functions.
1863 * Fall back to blackhole.pca.dfn.de as keyserver if retreiving
1864 from subkeys.pgp.net fails.

1879 - grml-live_autobuild_grml-small_sid.sh
1880 - grml-live_autobuild_grml64-small_etch.sh
1881 - grml-live_autobuild_grml64-small_sid.sh
1882 * Some more FAI error checking.
1883 * Updated buildd scripts (better subject handling).
1884 * Re-enable 'Acquire::http::Pipeline-Depth' workaround'.
1885 Restore usual Debian behaviour at the end using
1886 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/99-finish-grml-build
1887 * Add new scripts for retreiving bugs via apt-listbugs
1888 and storing package selection inside log directory.
1889 This has been integrated in a new class named "RELEASE".
1890 * Added support for new kernel version 2.6.23-grml to
1892 * Use uxterm as x-terminal-emulator and fall back to xterm
1893 only it uxterm is not available.
1894 * Support /etc/locale.gen.grml - it's used by default in
1895 class GRML_FULL and a new class named LOCALES.
1896 * Work around #443481 (bug inside snort) for Debian etch
1897 via using /etc/snort/snort.common.parameters (thanks for
1898 the idea, Thomas Lange!)
1899 * Do not exit with an error code if /usr/include/linux is NOT
1900 a symlink to /usr/src/linux/include/linux but keep it as

1903 * Re-enable problematic packages that have been fixed:
1904 - apt-listbugs (fixed via manual interaction in scripts)
1905 - gsm-utils (#353967)
1907 - wvdial (fixed via debconf)

1915 grml-live (0.0.4) unstable; urgency=low
1917 * The -t option for specifying the output directory has been
1918 renamed into -o. The option -t now specifies the place where
1919 templates for building the ISO can be found.
1920 * Option -t can be used for specifying the template directory.
1921 TEMPLATE_DIRECTORY can be used in /etc/grml/grml-live.conf
1922 * Check for /var/run/fai/FAI_INSTALLATION_IN_PROGRESS and exit then.
1923 * /etc/grml/fai/config/hooks/instsoft.GRMLBASE:
1924 - disable pipeline workaround
1925 - create /dev/MAKEDEV in chroot to work around the
1926 "./MAKEDEV: No such file or directory" problem of some packages
1927 * Use /var/log/grml-live.log as log file as /var/log/fai/* is too
1928 dangerous because of automatic removal of the files/dirs via fai.
1929 * Use class GRML_MEDIUM by default and document GRMLBASE, GRML_* plus
1930 I386/AMD64 classes in the docs.
1931 * Add new packages to GRML_FULL:
1932 - tgt: Linux target framework user-space tools
1933 - paperkey: extract just the secret information out ouf OpenPGP keys
1934 - gitpkg: helper scripts for maintaining packages with git
1935 - iscsitarget: iSCSI Enterprise Target userland tools
1936 - iscsitarget-module-2.6.22-grml: kernel module for iscsitarget

1958 * Provide class GRML_SMALL and rename old GRML_SMALL into
1960 * Do not install kernel via GRMLBASE but via GRML_* classes
1961 instead so we have only one single kernel on the system
1962 with something like 'GRMLBASE,GRML_SMALL,REMOVE_DOCS,I386'.
1963 * Use grml-live.log as logfile.
