3      [ Colin Watson ]
4      * Note that partman-auto/init_automatically_partition is only honoured if
5        partman-auto/method is not set.
6    
7      [ Frans Pop ]
8      * Add missing hyphen in command "kbd-config". With thanks to Tapio Lehtonen.
9        Closes: #545584.
10      * Include a caution in the IA64 version of the manual against using IA64
11        for "normal" 64-bit Intel systems.
12      * Disable the variant for the alpha architecture: it is being dropped as a
13        release architecture for Squeeze.
14      * When updating PO files, set them to a standard width of 79 (same as used
15        for l10n-sync for D-I master PO files).
16      * Document that Debian now installs Recommends by default and how to disable
17        that.
18      * x86 USB boot: two improvements suggested by Timo Juhani Lindfors and one
19        by Samuel Thibault. Closes: #532437, #532440, #548534.

21        to www.kerneltraffic.org. Closes: #331523.
22      * Document new help functionality.
23      * Update for changes in locale selection in localechooser 2.17:

37      [ Frans Pop ]
38      * Switch over from Lenny to Squeeze. Current kernel is 2.6.29.
39      * Change the Debian designation for the ARM architecture from arm to armel.
40        The internal 'arch-spec' and file naming convention remains "arm" in order
41        to avoid unnecessary changes and work for translators.
42      * Mention that TERM= can be passed as boot parameter to set the terminal type
43        for serial console installs. Based on a patch suggested by Samuel Thibault.
44        Closes: #524666.
45      * Update copyright for 2009.

53        - Show some sections on mipsel that apply there too.
54        - Say that the Cobalt Qube 2700 (Qube1) is no longer supported.
55        - Remove everything about the Broadcom SWARM and BigSur since we no
56          longer support these devices in the installer.
57

60        - Document partman/mount_style, which controls how filesystems are
61          mounted.
62      * Document pkgsel/include/install-recommends.
63      * partman/confirm_write_new_label was renamed to

89      [ Colin Watson ]
90      * Document partman/early_command (added in partman-base 129).

92        had a user confused by this who hadn't found the note elsewhere
93        explaining owners.
94      * Use /dev/sda and /dev/sdb in the RAID preseeding example rather than

102        the 'boot' command. Document this as it has been known to cause some
