171 * Do not use /etc/grml_version but instead use /etc/debian_version
172 as check whether the chroot exists. If grml-live execution
173 itself succeded but was interrupted during task_configure it should
174 be fine to re-run grml-live with -u/-b options.

185 configuration variable SQUASHFS_BINARY.

188 build using kernel-package.
189 * templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg: add space char at end of lines in entries
190 that are meant for manual editing (so user just has to press <tab>
192 * Add 'pci=nomsi' to failsafe bootoption (thanks to Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt).

201 grml-live (0.9.21) unstable; urgency=low
206 - Split the single /etc/apt/sources.list file into structured files
207 in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/. We are using:
208 - /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grml.list for all grml related repositories
209 - /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list for official Debian repositories
211 - Provide information about grml-live version and Debian/suite
212 through /etc/grml_live_version in the generated ISO. [Closes: issue637]
213 - New graphical boot menu. Can be disabled via ISOLINUX_METHOD=console.
214 - New configuration variables DISTRI_NAME and DISTRI_INFO which should allow
215 easier rebranding of grml-live based distributions.
216 - Support installation of local files (not being part of any Debian package)
217 through $CHROOT_INSTALL.
218 - Display path of FAI logs during execution of grml-live.
219 - Replace all references to ftp.de.debian.org with cdn.debian.org,
220 see http://wiki.debian.org/DebianGeoMirror for details.
221 Thanks for the idea, Marc Haber!
223 * Bug fixes and improvements:
224 - When adjusting postfix configuration: make sure to execute newaliases
225 command after adjusting configuration, otherwise the old hostname
226 will be left inside /etc/aliases.db.
227 - grml_cleanup_chroot: get rid of /etc/lvm/cache/.cache and
228 /etc/lvm/backup/main as well.
229 - grml_cleanup_chroot: drop the /usr/include/linux checks.
230 - 90-update-alternatives: use wm-ng as default x-window-manager.
232 - Check for existence of $target/etc/apt/important_note.txt before
234 - buildd: drop GRML_LIVE_ARCH but instead use default architecture
236 - Set UTC=no by default. See http://bts.grml.org/grml/issue708 for
237 details. Credits to Ulrich Zehl for debugging. [Closes: issue708]
238 - Improve check for architecture which should be build: if not specified
239 assume a safe default and check this one.
240 - Unify variable default checks, always assume sane defaults.
241 - Always run $SUITE checks, so grml-live repository is used also
242 if suite isn't manually specified.
243 - Detect existence of stage 'boot' using boot/isolinux so grml-live
244 executed with options '-q -B' and empty boot/isolinux works as well.
245 - Introduce $NO_WINDOWS_BINARIES which replaces $WINDOWS_BINARIES so
246 we can improve sanity checks and easify configuration.
247 - Integrate memtest86+ binary so we don't ship old versions from
248 the build host. [Closes: issue717]
249 - Check whether rebuild of ISO is needed even though the ISO exists already.
252 * Debian packaging related changes:
253 - Bump to Standard-Version 3.8.3 (no further changes).
254 - Improve long description.
255 - Update copyright file (make lintian happy).
256 - Register grml-live html docs using doc-base.

265 - Add aesfix, aeskeyfind, bios-memimage, chaosreader, ext3grep, fatback,
266 myrescue, pipebench, safecopy, shed and xmount to GRML_FORENSIC. The
267 packages are either already available or should be available soon.
268 - Add scsitools to GRML_MEDIUM.
269 - Drop bar from GRML_FULL (no release since 2007, consider using
270 for example cpipe instead).
271 - Drop grml-saveconfig as it is replaced with recent versions
273 - Drop hydra from GRML_FULL (the license is not a clean GPL one).
274 - Drop icedax from GRML_FULL (we have schilyutils available).
277 * Update MirOS bsd4grml to 20090812 and sync menu.lst, grub.cfg,
278 isolinux.cfg, syslinux.cfg with each other; provide a fallback
279 way to boot MirOS bsd4grml from both GRUB versions using modules.
280 * Fix going back to GNU GRUB from ldbsd.com via alternative boot method;
281 while here, add the grml release info to the appropriate file.

295 - Drop gdk-imlib11 (see #522810).
296 - Drop gqcam (still depends on gtk1.2).
297 - Drop hping2 (hping3 is available in all relevant Debian releases
298 nowadays, see #533275).
299 - Drop libpam-pwgen (see #511613).
300 - Drop rgpsp (owner set to Debian QA Group and package doesn't seem
301 to be that important for grml).
302 - Drop windowlab (see #410618).
303 - Drop workbone (see #429178).
304 * Add check for valid Debian suite name to avoid breakage of sources.list

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

492 * Split package into grml-live and grml-live-addons.
493 Add grml-live-addons to Recommends of package grml-live.
494 Package grml-live-addons provides the templates/boot/addons

578 - drop package tspc (see #462738 and #515193)
579 - replace gqview with geeqie (thanks, Spida)
580 * Changes in GRML_MEDIUM:

584 * Document noautoconfig in grml-cheatcodes. Thanks to Ralf Moll!
586 - rename all etch* related scripts to lenny*
587 - adjust scripts to use "lenny" instead of "stable" for building
588 [to avoid that "etch" is used as build name but lenny is used]
589 - use "$NAME-daily-$SUITE" in functions.sh as build name so
590 identifying ISOs while running them is easier
591 * Support squeeze as valid suite name.
592 * Comment Debian/unstable in /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences by default.
593 This should avoid issues with something like
594 'apt-get -t experimental ...'
595 * Consequently drop 'Latest change' lines from all files.
596 * Support generation of sha1sum [Testing: issue622]
597 * Drop first, unnecessary APPEND line in isolinux.cfg and syslinux.cfg.
599 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default
600 in grml-autoconfig anyway and this shortens our /proc/cmdline.
601 * Run commands requiring network access through 'timeout 10' by default
602 if possible. [Closes: issue396]
603 * Do not use build server's hostname for /etc/mailname and
604 /etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf. [Testing: issue412]
605 * Add "forensic" to the append line when using the forensic kerneloption
606 so we can grep for it in any case.
607 * 15-initsetup: keep a backup of the original runlevel.conf file.
608 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the idea! [Closes: issue570]

610 via /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/*.key
611 * isolinux.cfg/syslinux.cfg: Drop duplicated 'MENU DEFAULT'.
612 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the bugreport!
613 * Move /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences to /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/.
614 This simplifies the directory layout a bit. Clarify its usage
615 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt
616 * Install all files from /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt. This supports
617 usage of directories like /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. Thanks for the
618 hint to Thomas Lehmann. [Closes: issue632]
619 * Replace all "sed -i 's/././' foo" calls with
620 'sed -i 's/././' foo | sponge foo' instead inside main grml-live script
621 so we don't destroy any existing symlinks. Depend on moreutils therefor.
623 * Integrate bsd4grml [hash: 987ce9a6f9ce205ba64794ed3fcac603]. This
624 provides MirBSD as bootoption 'bsd' at grml's bootprompt. Thanks to
625 Thorsten "mirabilos" Glaser for his work! Add support for
626 configuring NO_ADDONS_BSD4GRML via configuration file.

687 now), unless using class LOCALES. Reason: We have >70MB inside
688 /usr/share/locale on GRML_FULL, just too much to ship by default,

889 * Finally fixed the "isolinux does not boot on old hardware" problem.
890 The problem was a too big boot/isolinux directory. Thanks a lot
891 for all the testing to Andrea Mayr and Wernfried Haas!
892 - use /boot/addons/* for allinone.img, balder10.imz, chain.c32,
894 - place $GRML_NAME in /boot/$GRML_NAME/ - this should easify
895 support of several grml flavours on one single usb pen for the future
896 - adjust grub's menu.lst and isolinux.cfg as well as grml-live itself
897 for new directory layout
898 * Make sure $GRML_NAME does not contain known problematic characters.

1357 * Added support for new kernel version 2.6.23-grml to
1359 * Use uxterm as x-terminal-emulator and fall back to xterm
1360 only it uxterm is not available.
1361 * Support /etc/locale.gen.grml - it's used by default in
1362 class GRML_FULL and a new class named LOCALES.
1363 * Work around #443481 (bug inside snort) for Debian etch
1364 via using /etc/snort/snort.common.parameters (thanks for
1365 the idea, Thomas Lange!)
1366 * Do not exit with an error code if /usr/include/linux is NOT
1367 a symlink to /usr/src/linux/include/linux but keep it as
1369 * Log executed grml-live command.
1370 * Re-enable problematic packages that have been fixed:
1371 - apt-listbugs (fixed via manual interaction in scripts)
1372 - gsm-utils (#353967)
1374 - wvdial (fixed via debconf)
1375 * Add new packages to GRML_FULL:

1382 grml-live (0.0.4) unstable; urgency=low
1384 * The -t option for specifying the output directory has been
1385 renamed into -o. The option -t now specifies the place where
1386 templates for building the ISO can be found.
1387 * Option -t can be used for specifying the template directory.
1388 TEMPLATE_DIRECTORY can be used in /etc/grml/grml-live.conf
1389 * Check for /var/run/fai/FAI_INSTALLATION_IN_PROGRESS and exit then.
1390 * /etc/grml/fai/config/hooks/instsoft.GRMLBASE:
1391 - disable pipeline workaround
1392 - create /dev/MAKEDEV in chroot to work around the
1393 "./MAKEDEV: No such file or directory" problem of some packages
1394 * Use /var/log/grml-live.log as log file as /var/log/fai/* is too
1395 dangerous because of automatic removal of the files/dirs via fai.
1396 * Use class GRML_MEDIUM by default and document GRMLBASE, GRML_* plus
1397 I386/AMD64 classes in the docs.
1398 * Add new packages to GRML_FULL:
1399 - tgt: Linux target framework user-space tools
1400 - paperkey: extract just the secret information out ouf OpenPGP keys
1401 - gitpkg: helper scripts for maintaining packages with git
1402 - iscsitarget: iSCSI Enterprise Target userland tools
1403 - iscsitarget-module-2.6.22-grml: kernel module for iscsitarget
1404 * Set $HOSTNAME to according hostname via
1405 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/34-hosts
1406 * Adjust filename in header of /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/*.
1407 * Use iceweasel/firefox as x-www-browser and w3m as www-browser (if
1409 * Check for presence of the initrd.
1410 * Improve adjustment of suite for $FAI_DEBOOTSTRAP.
1411 * Add /usr/share/grml-live/examples/buildd/

1415 grml-live (0.0.3) unstable; urgency=low
1417 * Support for setting GRML_NAME (like grml vs. grml-small
1419 * Drop the character limits of $VERSION and $RELEASENAME.
1420 * Make sure $SECONDS is set before outputting the runtime.
1421 * Unify usage of i386_files, place all template files in
1422 directory templates now.
1423 * Improve portability of linux headers cleanup inside
1424 grml_cleanup_chroot.
1425 * Provide class GRML_SMALL and rename old GRML_SMALL into
1427 * Do not install kernel via GRMLBASE but via GRML_* classes
1428 instead so we have only one single kernel on the system
1429 with something like 'GRMLBASE,GRML_SMALL,REMOVE_DOCS,I386'.
1430 * Use grml-live.log as logfile.
1431 * Added vim to GRML_MEDIUM package list.
