28 xtables-addons-common).
29 - Drop harden-remoteaudit + openvas-server from GRML_FULL (they
30 are pretty useless without plugins which need just too much space).
31 * Rework variable replacements in templates. Now the %VAR% strings
32 in the templates match with the ones used inside grml-live ($VAR),
33 currently ARCH, DATE, DISTRI_INFO, DISTRI_NAME, DISTRI_SPLASH,
34 GRML_NAME, SQUASHFS_NAME, RELEASE_INFO, SHORT_NAME and VERSION
35 are supported. If you use your own templates from older grml-live
36 versions please make sure to adjust them.

120 * Do not use /etc/grml_version but instead use /etc/debian_version
121 as check whether the chroot exists. If grml-live execution
122 itself succeded but was interrupted during task_configure it should
123 be fine to re-run grml-live with -u/-b options.
124 * Fix usage of exclude option in $SQUASHFS_OPTIONS.

133 * Introduce support for squashfs-lzma-tools 4.0-1 and support
134 configuration variable SQUASHFS_BINARY.
135 * Modify update-initramfs call in grml-live script as the
136 'update-initramfs -u -t' might fail with linux images which have been
137 build using kernel-package.
138 * templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg: add space char at end of lines in entries
139 that are meant for manual editing (so user just has to press <tab>
141 * Add 'pci=nomsi' to failsafe bootoption (thanks to Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt).
142 * Fix grml2usb bootoption in templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg.

144 according code has been executed (and do not display if skipping).

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

243 - Drop fcoretools (see #534542).
244 - Drop gdk-imlib11 (see #522810).
245 - Drop gqcam (still depends on gtk1.2).
246 - Drop hping2 (hping3 is available in all relevant Debian releases
247 nowadays, see #533275).
248 - Drop libpam-pwgen (see #511613).
249 - Drop rgpsp (owner set to Debian QA Group and package doesn't seem
250 to be that important for grml).
251 - Drop windowlab (see #410618).
252 - Drop workbone (see #429178).
253 * Add check for valid Debian suite name to avoid breakage of sources.list
254 if someone calls grml-live with a typo in the -s option.
255 * Add exception for libewf1 and libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2 in
256 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/40-deborphan.

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

439 grml-live (0.9.13) unstable; urgency=low
441 * Split package into grml-live and grml-live-addons.
442 Add grml-live-addons to Recommends of package grml-live.
443 Package grml-live-addons provides the templates/boot/addons
444 files that require >7MB of disk space overall so we don't
445 want to ship it with default grml:
454 * Add ${misc:Depends} to binary packages' depend.
455 * Bump Standard-Version to 3.8.1 (no further changes).
456 * Install /etc/grml/fai/live-initramfs/live.conf only if

532 - add mc (on request by Christian Kuehlborn)
533 * Document noautoconfig in grml-cheatcodes. Thanks to Ralf Moll!
535 - rename all etch* related scripts to lenny*
536 - adjust scripts to use "lenny" instead of "stable" for building
537 [to avoid that "etch" is used as build name but lenny is used]
538 - use "$NAME-daily-$SUITE" in functions.sh as build name so
539 identifying ISOs while running them is easier
540 * Support squeeze as valid suite name.
541 * Comment Debian/unstable in /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences by default.
542 This should avoid issues with something like
543 'apt-get -t experimental ...'
544 * Consequently drop 'Latest change' lines from all files.
545 * Support generation of sha1sum [Testing: issue622]
546 * Drop first, unnecessary APPEND line in isolinux.cfg and syslinux.cfg.
548 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default
549 in grml-autoconfig anyway and this shortens our /proc/cmdline.
550 * Run commands requiring network access through 'timeout 10' by default
551 if possible. [Closes: issue396]
552 * Do not use build server's hostname for /etc/mailname and
553 /etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf. [Testing: issue412]
554 * Add "forensic" to the append line when using the forensic kerneloption
555 so we can grep for it in any case.
556 * 15-initsetup: keep a backup of the original runlevel.conf file.
557 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the idea! [Closes: issue570]

559 via /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/*.key
560 * isolinux.cfg/syslinux.cfg: Drop duplicated 'MENU DEFAULT'.
561 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the bugreport!
562 * Move /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences to /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/.
563 This simplifies the directory layout a bit. Clarify its usage
564 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt
565 * Install all files from /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt. This supports
566 usage of directories like /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. Thanks for the
567 hint to Thomas Lehmann. [Closes: issue632]
568 * Replace all "sed -i 's/././' foo" calls with
569 'sed -i 's/././' foo | sponge foo' instead inside main grml-live script
570 so we don't destroy any existing symlinks. Depend on moreutils therefor.
572 * Integrate bsd4grml [hash: 987ce9a6f9ce205ba64794ed3fcac603]. This
573 provides MirBSD as bootoption 'bsd' at grml's bootprompt. Thanks to
574 Thorsten "mirabilos" Glaser for his work! Add support for
575 configuring NO_ADDONS_BSD4GRML via configuration file.
576 * Add informational header to /etc/grml/fai/apt/sources.list and
577 update docs regarding the file.
578 * If specified SUITE is unstable use 'sid' instead (to avoid breakages

1057 Quoting the NEWS file of FAI:
1058 - LOGDIR is now /var/log/fai/$HOSTNAME/$FAI_ACTION_date+time
1059 - LOGDIR is /tmp/fai during an installation (not dirinstall), and
1060 will be copied to the path above at the end of an installation

1215 activated if you are building against unstable/sid and should
1216 be used manually only if you realy know what you are doing.
1217 Notice: if something fails inside building the base chroot/
1218 debootstrap system we can't do anything via grml-live for you
