+grml2usb (0.9.13) unstable; urgency=low
+
+  * This release makes syslinux the default bootloader again.
+    Grub fails just too often. Therefore the --syslinux options
+    is deprecated and option --grub was introduced instead.
+
+  * This release provides decent support for multi-ISO within the
+    new vesamenu bootsplash, providing a menu based system.  We had
+    to break backward compatibility (otherwise the isolinux/syslinux
+    code would be unmaintainable). Therefore support for older ISOs
+    (everything before grml release 2009.10) had to be dropped. If
+    you still need an old version of Grml on your usb device just
+    use an older version of grml2usb (the old grml2usb versions
+    support recent ISOs too, they just don't use/support the new
+    vesamenu bootsplash then). The grml team supports old
+    grml2usb versions through the grml2usb-compat script.
+    Further details are available in the FAQ at
+    http://grml.org/grml2usb/#grml2usb-compat
