93 FAI version 3.2.3 therefor.
94 * FAI 3.2.3 has a new log schema, adjusted grml-live accordingly.
95 Quoting the NEWS file of FAI:
96 - LOGDIR is now /var/log/fai/$HOSTNAME/$FAI_ACTION_date+time
97 - LOGDIR is /tmp/fai during an installation (not dirinstall), and
98 will be copied to the path above at the end of an installation

228 The "holidays? what? are you joking?!"-release.
230 * Added FAI patches to /usr/share/grml-live/patches/ - it's
231 recommended to apply the patches to FAI until they are accepted
232 upstream. See Debian's BTS for more details: #444210, #447080
234 * Support option '-u' for updating system.
235 * Reworked buildd concept.
236 - Now we have a seperate
237 /usr/share/grml-live/buildd/functions.sh for generic stuff
238 and /etc/grml/grml-buildd.conf as configuration file.
239 - Use grml-buildd.{stdout,stderr} instead of
240 grml-live.{stdout,stderr} as log files.
241 - buildd/functions.sh: do not mv files if there was an error
242 during grml-live execution
243 - do not re-execute grml-live is the target ISO exists already
244 * Update zsh completion - thanks to Frank Terbeck!
245 * Set /etc/grml_version of live-system to the according value.

249 * Log to /var/log/grml-live.log by default now and support
250 $ZERO_LOGFILE for cleaning up logs.
251 * Added new grml-repository named grml-live which is intented
252 to fix issues from Debian for grml-live builds. It is automatically
253 activated if you are building against unstable/sid and should
254 be used manually only if you realy know what you are doing.
255 Notice: if something fails inside building the base chroot/
256 debootstrap system we can't do anything via grml-live for you
257 right now. Instead grab the base.tgz from http://daily.grml.org/
258 * Add /usr/share/grml-live/scripts/repodiff.pl (by formorer, thx!)
259 for comparing two repositories.
260 * Replaced /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/preferences

274 * Set $SECONDS to unknown if $start_seconds is not set.
275 * Log closing signs (----...) via bailout to make sure they are
276 always set - even when exiting with an error.
277 * Check for presence of /bin/zsh before setting default shell in
278 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/21-usersetup
279 * Check for locales/localepurge before using them in
280 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/25-locales
