97 * Split package into grml-live and grml-live-addons.
98 Add grml-live-addons to Recommends of package grml-live.
99 Package grml-live-addons provides the templates/boot/addons
100 files that require >7MB of disk space overall so we don't

182 * Changes in GRML_FULL:
183 - drop package tspc (see #462738 and #515193)
184 - replace gqview with geeqie (thanks, Spida)
185 * Changes in GRML_MEDIUM:

187 - add dstat (on request by gebi)
188 - add mc (on request by Christian Kuehlborn)
189 * Document noautoconfig in grml-cheatcodes. Thanks to Ralf Moll!
191 - rename all etch* related scripts to lenny*
192 - adjust scripts to use "lenny" instead of "stable" for building
193 [to avoid that "etch" is used as build name but lenny is used]
194 - use "$NAME-daily-$SUITE" in functions.sh as build name so
195 identifying ISOs while running them is easier
196 * Support squeeze as valid suite name.
197 * Comment Debian/unstable in /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences by default.
198 This should avoid issues with something like
199 'apt-get -t experimental ...'
200 * Consequently drop 'Latest change' lines from all files.
201 * Support generation of sha1sum [Testing: issue622]
202 * Drop first, unnecessary APPEND line in isolinux.cfg and syslinux.cfg.
204 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default
205 in grml-autoconfig anyway and this shortens our /proc/cmdline.
206 * Run commands requiring network access through 'timeout 10' by default
207 if possible. [Closes: issue396]
208 * Do not use build server's hostname for /etc/mailname and
209 /etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf. [Testing: issue412]
210 * Add "forensic" to the append line when using the forensic kerneloption
211 so we can grep for it in any case.
212 * 15-initsetup: keep a backup of the original runlevel.conf file.
213 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the idea! [Closes: issue570]
214 * instsoft.GRMLBASE: support installation of multiple gpg keys
215 via /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/*.key
216 * isolinux.cfg/syslinux.cfg: Drop duplicated 'MENU DEFAULT'.
217 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the bugreport!
218 * Move /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences to /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/.
219 This simplifies the directory layout a bit. Clarify its usage
220 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt
221 * Install all files from /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt. This supports
222 usage of directories like /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. Thanks for the
223 hint to Thomas Lehmann. [Closes: issue632]
224 * Replace all "sed -i 's/././' foo" calls with
225 'sed -i 's/././' foo | sponge foo' instead inside main grml-live script
226 so we don't destroy any existing symlinks. Depend on moreutils therefor.
228 * Integrate bsd4grml [hash: 987ce9a6f9ce205ba64794ed3fcac603]. This
229 provides MirBSD as bootoption 'bsd' at grml's bootprompt. Thanks to
230 Thorsten "mirabilos" Glaser for his work! Add support for
231 configuring NO_ADDONS_BSD4GRML via configuration file.
232 * Add informational header to /etc/grml/fai/apt/sources.list and
233 update docs regarding the file.
234 * If specified SUITE is unstable use 'sid' instead (to avoid breakages
236 * Support NO_ADDONS via configuration file.
237 * Always skip mksquashfs part when using -q option.

284 - latencytop (A tool for developers to visualize system latencies)
285 - powertop (Linux tool to find out what is using power on a laptop)
286 * Remove localepurge from GRML_SMALL.
287 * Remove mozilla-imagezoom from GRML_FULL (the "extension installed"
288 * Execute dpkg-reconfigure for localepurge with noninteractive frontend.
290 * Rework locale handling. From now on /usr/share/locale gets removed
291 by default (though /usr/share/i18n/locales won't be touched for
292 now), unless using class LOCALES. Reason: We have >70MB inside
293 /usr/share/locale on GRML_FULL, just too much to ship by default,
294 message at startup sucks).
295 * Update grml-cheatcodes.txt.
296 * Provide grml's gpg key via /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/grml.key
297 so we support offline operation as well. Based on an idea by
298 Thomas Lehmann, thanks!
299 * Generate ISO with volume label "${GRML_NAME} ${VERSION}" instead of

495 The problem was a too big boot/isolinux directory. Thanks a lot

497 - use /boot/addons/* for allinone.img, balder10.imz, chain.c32,
499 - place $GRML_NAME in /boot/$GRML_NAME/ - this should easify
500 support of several grml flavours on one single usb pen for the future
501 - adjust grub's menu.lst and isolinux.cfg as well as grml-live itself
502 for new directory layout

947 grml-live (0.0.5) unstable; urgency=low
949 * Add new scripts to /usr/share/grml-live/examples/buildd/:
950 - grml-live_autobuild_grml-small_etch.sh
951 - grml-live_autobuild_grml-small_sid.sh
952 - grml-live_autobuild_grml64-small_etch.sh
953 - grml-live_autobuild_grml64-small_sid.sh
954 * Some more FAI error checking.
955 * Updated buildd scripts (better subject handling).
956 * Re-enable 'Acquire::http::Pipeline-Depth' workaround'.
957 Restore usual Debian behaviour at the end using
958 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/99-finish-grml-build
959 * Add new scripts for retreiving bugs via apt-listbugs
960 and storing package selection inside log directory.
961 This has been integrated in a new class named "RELEASE".
962 * Added support for new kernel version 2.6.23-grml to
964 * Use uxterm as x-terminal-emulator and fall back to xterm
965 only it uxterm is not available.
966 * Support /etc/locale.gen.grml - it's used by default in
967 class GRML_FULL and a new class named LOCALES.
968 * Work around #443481 (bug inside snort) for Debian etch
969 via using /etc/snort/snort.common.parameters (thanks for
970 the idea, Thomas Lange!)
971 * Do not exit with an error code if /usr/include/linux is NOT
972 a symlink to /usr/src/linux/include/linux but keep it as
974 * Log executed grml-live command.
975 * Re-enable problematic packages that have been fixed:
976 - apt-listbugs (fixed via manual interaction in scripts)
977 - gsm-utils (#353967)
979 - wvdial (fixed via debconf)
980 * Add new packages to GRML_FULL:

987 grml-live (0.0.4) unstable; urgency=low
989 * The -t option for specifying the output directory has been
990 renamed into -o. The option -t now specifies the place where
991 templates for building the ISO can be found.
992 * Option -t can be used for specifying the template directory.
993 TEMPLATE_DIRECTORY can be used in /etc/grml/grml-live.conf
994 * Check for /var/run/fai/FAI_INSTALLATION_IN_PROGRESS and exit then.
995 * /etc/grml/fai/config/hooks/instsoft.GRMLBASE:
996 - disable pipeline workaround
997 - create /dev/MAKEDEV in chroot to work around the
998 "./MAKEDEV: No such file or directory" problem of some packages
999 * Use /var/log/grml-live.log as log file as /var/log/fai/* is too
1000 dangerous because of automatic removal of the files/dirs via fai.
1001 * Use class GRML_MEDIUM by default and document GRMLBASE, GRML_* plus
1002 I386/AMD64 classes in the docs.
1003 * Add new packages to GRML_FULL:
1004 - tgt: Linux target framework user-space tools
1005 - paperkey: extract just the secret information out ouf OpenPGP keys
1006 - gitpkg: helper scripts for maintaining packages with git
1007 - iscsitarget: iSCSI Enterprise Target userland tools
1008 - iscsitarget-module-2.6.22-grml: kernel module for iscsitarget
1009 * Set $HOSTNAME to according hostname via
1010 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/34-hosts
1011 * Adjust filename in header of /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/*.
1012 * Use iceweasel/firefox as x-www-browser and w3m as www-browser (if
1014 * Check for presence of the initrd.
1015 * Improve adjustment of suite for $FAI_DEBOOTSTRAP.
1016 * Add /usr/share/grml-live/examples/buildd/

1020 grml-live (0.0.3) unstable; urgency=low
1022 * Support for setting GRML_NAME (like grml vs. grml-small
1024 * Drop the character limits of $VERSION and $RELEASENAME.
1025 * Make sure $SECONDS is set before outputting the runtime.
1026 * Unify usage of i386_files, place all template files in
1027 directory templates now.
1028 * Improve portability of linux headers cleanup inside
1029 grml_cleanup_chroot.
1030 * Provide class GRML_SMALL and rename old GRML_SMALL into
1032 * Do not install kernel via GRMLBASE but via GRML_* classes
1033 instead so we have only one single kernel on the system
1034 with something like 'GRMLBASE,GRML_SMALL,REMOVE_DOCS,I386'.
1035 * Use grml-live.log as logfile.
1036 * Added vim to GRML_MEDIUM package list.
