72 * Split package into grml-live and grml-live-addons.
73 Add grml-live-addons to Recommends of package grml-live.
74 Package grml-live-addons provides the templates/boot/addons

157 * Changes in GRML_FULL:
158 - drop package tspc (see #462738 and #515193)
159 - replace gqview with geeqie (thanks, Spida)
160 * Changes in GRML_MEDIUM:

163 - add mc (on request by Christian Kuehlborn)
164 * Document noautoconfig in grml-cheatcodes. Thanks to Ralf Moll!
166 - rename all etch* related scripts to lenny*
167 - adjust scripts to use "lenny" instead of "stable" for building
168 [to avoid that "etch" is used as build name but lenny is used]
169 - use "$NAME-daily-$SUITE" in functions.sh as build name so
170 identifying ISOs while running them is easier
171 * Support squeeze as valid suite name.
172 * Comment Debian/unstable in /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences by default.
173 This should avoid issues with something like
174 'apt-get -t experimental ...'
175 * Consequently drop 'Latest change' lines from all files.
176 * Support generation of sha1sum [Testing: issue622]
177 * Drop first, unnecessary APPEND line in isolinux.cfg and syslinux.cfg.
179 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default
180 in grml-autoconfig anyway and this shortens our /proc/cmdline.
181 * Run commands requiring network access through 'timeout 10' by default
182 if possible. [Closes: issue396]
183 * Do not use build server's hostname for /etc/mailname and
184 /etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf. [Testing: issue412]
185 * Add "forensic" to the append line when using the forensic kerneloption
186 so we can grep for it in any case.
187 * 15-initsetup: keep a backup of the original runlevel.conf file.
188 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the idea! [Closes: issue570]

190 via /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/*.key
191 * isolinux.cfg/syslinux.cfg: Drop duplicated 'MENU DEFAULT'.
192 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the bugreport!
193 * Move /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences to /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/.
194 This simplifies the directory layout a bit. Clarify its usage
195 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt
196 * Install all files from /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt. This supports
197 usage of directories like /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. Thanks for the
198 hint to Thomas Lehmann. [Closes: issue632]
199 * Replace all "sed -i 's/././' foo" calls with
200 'sed -i 's/././' foo | sponge foo' instead inside main grml-live script
201 so we don't destroy any existing symlinks. Depend on moreutils therefor.
203 * Integrate bsd4grml [hash: 987ce9a6f9ce205ba64794ed3fcac603]. This
204 provides MirBSD as bootoption 'bsd' at grml's bootprompt. Thanks to
205 Thorsten "mirabilos" Glaser for his work! Add support for
206 configuring NO_ADDONS_BSD4GRML via configuration file.
207 * Add informational header to /etc/grml/fai/apt/sources.list and
208 update docs regarding the file.
209 * If specified SUITE is unstable use 'sid' instead (to avoid breakages

262 * Remove mozilla-imagezoom from GRML_FULL (the "extension installed"
263 * Execute dpkg-reconfigure for localepurge with noninteractive frontend.
265 * Rework locale handling. From now on /usr/share/locale gets removed
266 by default (though /usr/share/i18n/locales won't be touched for
267 now), unless using class LOCALES. Reason: We have >70MB inside
268 /usr/share/locale on GRML_FULL, just too much to ship by default,
269 message at startup sucks).
270 * Update grml-cheatcodes.txt.
271 * Provide grml's gpg key via /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/grml.key
272 so we support offline operation as well. Based on an idea by
273 Thomas Lehmann, thanks!
274 * Generate ISO with volume label "${GRML_NAME} ${VERSION}" instead of
275 "grml $VERSION" so we propagate the according grml-name. Thanks to

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

935 and storing package selection inside log directory.
936 This has been integrated in a new class named "RELEASE".
937 * Added support for new kernel version 2.6.23-grml to
939 * Use uxterm as x-terminal-emulator and fall back to xterm
940 only it uxterm is not available.
941 * Support /etc/locale.gen.grml - it's used by default in
942 class GRML_FULL and a new class named LOCALES.
943 * Work around #443481 (bug inside snort) for Debian etch
944 via using /etc/snort/snort.common.parameters (thanks for
945 the idea, Thomas Lange!)
946 * Do not exit with an error code if /usr/include/linux is NOT
947 a symlink to /usr/src/linux/include/linux but keep it as
949 * Log executed grml-live command.
950 * Re-enable problematic packages that have been fixed:
951 - apt-listbugs (fixed via manual interaction in scripts)
952 - gsm-utils (#353967)
954 - wvdial (fixed via debconf)
955 * Add new packages to GRML_FULL:

962 grml-live (0.0.4) unstable; urgency=low
964 * The -t option for specifying the output directory has been
965 renamed into -o. The option -t now specifies the place where
966 templates for building the ISO can be found.
967 * Option -t can be used for specifying the template directory.
968 TEMPLATE_DIRECTORY can be used in /etc/grml/grml-live.conf
969 * Check for /var/run/fai/FAI_INSTALLATION_IN_PROGRESS and exit then.
970 * /etc/grml/fai/config/hooks/instsoft.GRMLBASE:
971 - disable pipeline workaround
972 - create /dev/MAKEDEV in chroot to work around the
973 "./MAKEDEV: No such file or directory" problem of some packages
974 * Use /var/log/grml-live.log as log file as /var/log/fai/* is too
975 dangerous because of automatic removal of the files/dirs via fai.
976 * Use class GRML_MEDIUM by default and document GRMLBASE, GRML_* plus
977 I386/AMD64 classes in the docs.
978 * Add new packages to GRML_FULL:
979 - tgt: Linux target framework user-space tools
980 - paperkey: extract just the secret information out ouf OpenPGP keys
981 - gitpkg: helper scripts for maintaining packages with git
982 - iscsitarget: iSCSI Enterprise Target userland tools
983 - iscsitarget-module-2.6.22-grml: kernel module for iscsitarget
984 * Set $HOSTNAME to according hostname via
985 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/34-hosts
986 * Adjust filename in header of /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/*.
987 * Use iceweasel/firefox as x-www-browser and w3m as www-browser (if
989 * Check for presence of the initrd.
990 * Improve adjustment of suite for $FAI_DEBOOTSTRAP.
991 * Add /usr/share/grml-live/examples/buildd/

995 grml-live (0.0.3) unstable; urgency=low
997 * Support for setting GRML_NAME (like grml vs. grml-small
999 * Drop the character limits of $VERSION and $RELEASENAME.
1000 * Make sure $SECONDS is set before outputting the runtime.
1001 * Unify usage of i386_files, place all template files in
1002 directory templates now.
1003 * Improve portability of linux headers cleanup inside
1004 grml_cleanup_chroot.
1005 * Provide class GRML_SMALL and rename old GRML_SMALL into
1007 * Do not install kernel via GRMLBASE but via GRML_* classes
1008 instead so we have only one single kernel on the system
1009 with something like 'GRMLBASE,GRML_SMALL,REMOVE_DOCS,I386'.
1010 * Use grml-live.log as logfile.
1011 * Added vim to GRML_MEDIUM package list.
