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

157 * Introduce support for squashfs-lzma-tools 4.0-1 and support
158 configuration variable SQUASHFS_BINARY.
159 * Modify update-initramfs call in grml-live script as the

161 build using kernel-package.
162 * templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg: add space char at end of lines in entries
163 that are meant for manual editing (so user just has to press <tab>
165 * Add 'pci=nomsi' to failsafe bootoption (thanks to Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt).
166 * Fix grml2usb bootoption in templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg.

174 grml-live (0.9.21) unstable; urgency=low
179 - Split the single /etc/apt/sources.list file into structured files
180 in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/. We are using:
181 - /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grml.list for all grml related repositories
182 - /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list for official Debian repositories
184 - Provide information about grml-live version and Debian/suite
185 through /etc/grml_live_version in the generated ISO. [Closes: issue637]
186 - New graphical boot menu. Can be disabled via ISOLINUX_METHOD=console.
187 - New configuration variables DISTRI_NAME and DISTRI_INFO which should allow
188 easier rebranding of grml-live based distributions.
189 - Support installation of local files (not being part of any Debian package)
190 through $CHROOT_INSTALL.
191 - Display path of FAI logs during execution of grml-live.
192 - Replace all references to ftp.de.debian.org with cdn.debian.org,
193 see http://wiki.debian.org/DebianGeoMirror for details.
194 Thanks for the idea, Marc Haber!
196 * Bug fixes and improvements:
197 - When adjusting postfix configuration: make sure to execute newaliases
198 command after adjusting configuration, otherwise the old hostname
199 will be left inside /etc/aliases.db.
200 - grml_cleanup_chroot: get rid of /etc/lvm/cache/.cache and
201 /etc/lvm/backup/main as well.
202 - grml_cleanup_chroot: drop the /usr/include/linux checks.
203 - 90-update-alternatives: use wm-ng as default x-window-manager.
205 - Check for existence of $target/etc/apt/important_note.txt before
207 - buildd: drop GRML_LIVE_ARCH but instead use default architecture
209 - Set UTC=no by default. See http://bts.grml.org/grml/issue708 for
210 details. Credits to Ulrich Zehl for debugging. [Closes: issue708]
211 - Improve check for architecture which should be build: if not specified
212 assume a safe default and check this one.
213 - Unify variable default checks, always assume sane defaults.
214 - Always run $SUITE checks, so grml-live repository is used also
215 if suite isn't manually specified.
216 - Detect existence of stage 'boot' using boot/isolinux so grml-live
217 executed with options '-q -B' and empty boot/isolinux works as well.
218 - Introduce $NO_WINDOWS_BINARIES which replaces $WINDOWS_BINARIES so
219 we can improve sanity checks and easify configuration.
220 - Integrate memtest86+ binary so we don't ship old versions from
221 the build host. [Closes: issue717]
222 - Check whether rebuild of ISO is needed even though the ISO exists already.
225 * Debian packaging related changes:
226 - Bump to Standard-Version 3.8.3 (no further changes).
227 - Improve long description.
228 - Update copyright file (make lintian happy).
229 - Register grml-live html docs using doc-base.
232 - grml-cheatcodes: document bootoption 'nostartx'.
233 - Apply patch from Marc Haber (thanks!) for new grml cheatcodes
234 (new DCS directory feature).
236 * Software related changes:
237 - Add git-email to GRML_FULL (thanks to Joerg Woelke for mentioning).
238 - Add aesfix, aeskeyfind, bios-memimage, chaosreader, ext3grep, fatback,
239 myrescue, pipebench, safecopy, shed and xmount to GRML_FORENSIC. The
240 packages are either already available or should be available soon.
241 - Add scsitools to GRML_MEDIUM.
242 - Drop bar from GRML_FULL (no release since 2007, consider using
243 for example cpipe instead).
244 - Drop grml-saveconfig as it is replaced with recent versions
246 - Drop hydra from GRML_FULL (the license is not a clean GPL one).
247 - Drop icedax from GRML_FULL (we have schilyutils available).
250 * Update MirOS bsd4grml to 20090812 and sync menu.lst, grub.cfg,
251 isolinux.cfg, syslinux.cfg with each other; provide a fallback
252 way to boot MirOS bsd4grml from both GRUB versions using modules.
253 * Fix going back to GNU GRUB from ldbsd.com via alternative boot method;
254 while here, add the grml release info to the appropriate file.

268 - Drop gdk-imlib11 (see #522810).
269 - Drop gqcam (still depends on gtk1.2).

271 nowadays, see #533275).
272 - Drop libpam-pwgen (see #511613).
273 - Drop rgpsp (owner set to Debian QA Group and package doesn't seem
274 to be that important for grml).
275 - Drop windowlab (see #410618).
276 - Drop workbone (see #429178).
277 * Add check for valid Debian suite name to avoid breakage of sources.list
278 if someone calls grml-live with a typo in the -s option.

280 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/40-deborphan.

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

463 grml-live (0.9.13) unstable; urgency=low
465 * Split package into grml-live and grml-live-addons.
466 Add grml-live-addons to Recommends of package grml-live.
467 Package grml-live-addons provides the templates/boot/addons
468 files that require >7MB of disk space overall so we don't
469 want to ship it with default grml:
478 * Add ${misc:Depends} to binary packages' depend.
479 * Bump Standard-Version to 3.8.1 (no further changes).
480 * Install /etc/grml/fai/live-initramfs/live.conf only if

488 * Mention bsd and hdt in isolinux' bootsplash f3.
489 * Mention readonly, hdt and bsd bootoptions in grml-cheatcodes.txt.
490 * Slightly improve 'grml2ram' vs 'grml toram' description in bootsplash.

551 - drop package tspc (see #462738 and #515193)
552 - replace gqview with geeqie (thanks, Spida)
553 * Changes in GRML_MEDIUM:

556 - add mc (on request by Christian Kuehlborn)
557 * Document noautoconfig in grml-cheatcodes. Thanks to Ralf Moll!
559 - rename all etch* related scripts to lenny*
560 - adjust scripts to use "lenny" instead of "stable" for building
561 [to avoid that "etch" is used as build name but lenny is used]
562 - use "$NAME-daily-$SUITE" in functions.sh as build name so
563 identifying ISOs while running them is easier
564 * Support squeeze as valid suite name.
565 * Comment Debian/unstable in /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences by default.
566 This should avoid issues with something like
567 'apt-get -t experimental ...'
568 * Consequently drop 'Latest change' lines from all files.
569 * Support generation of sha1sum [Testing: issue622]
570 * Drop first, unnecessary APPEND line in isolinux.cfg and syslinux.cfg.
572 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default
573 in grml-autoconfig anyway and this shortens our /proc/cmdline.
574 * Run commands requiring network access through 'timeout 10' by default
575 if possible. [Closes: issue396]
576 * Do not use build server's hostname for /etc/mailname and
577 /etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf. [Testing: issue412]
578 * Add "forensic" to the append line when using the forensic kerneloption
579 so we can grep for it in any case.
580 * 15-initsetup: keep a backup of the original runlevel.conf file.
581 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the idea! [Closes: issue570]

583 via /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/*.key
584 * isolinux.cfg/syslinux.cfg: Drop duplicated 'MENU DEFAULT'.
585 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the bugreport!
586 * Move /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences to /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/.
587 This simplifies the directory layout a bit. Clarify its usage
588 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt
589 * Install all files from /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt. This supports
590 usage of directories like /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. Thanks for the
591 hint to Thomas Lehmann. [Closes: issue632]
592 * Replace all "sed -i 's/././' foo" calls with
593 'sed -i 's/././' foo | sponge foo' instead inside main grml-live script
594 so we don't destroy any existing symlinks. Depend on moreutils therefor.
596 * Integrate bsd4grml [hash: 987ce9a6f9ce205ba64794ed3fcac603]. This
597 provides MirBSD as bootoption 'bsd' at grml's bootprompt. Thanks to
598 Thorsten "mirabilos" Glaser for his work! Add support for
599 configuring NO_ADDONS_BSD4GRML via configuration file.
600 * Add informational header to /etc/grml/fai/apt/sources.list and
601 update docs regarding the file.
602 * If specified SUITE is unstable use 'sid' instead (to avoid breakages

660 now), unless using class LOCALES. Reason: We have >70MB inside

1366 "./MAKEDEV: No such file or directory" problem of some packages
1367 * Use /var/log/grml-live.log as log file as /var/log/fai/* is too
1368 dangerous because of automatic removal of the files/dirs via fai.

1370 I386/AMD64 classes in the docs.
1371 * Add new packages to GRML_FULL:
1372 - tgt: Linux target framework user-space tools

1398 * Provide class GRML_SMALL and rename old GRML_SMALL into
1400 * Do not install kernel via GRMLBASE but via GRML_* classes
1401 instead so we have only one single kernel on the system
1402 with something like 'GRMLBASE,GRML_SMALL,REMOVE_DOCS,I386'.
1403 * Use grml-live.log as logfile.
1404 * Added vim to GRML_MEDIUM package list.
