12     copies /etc/fai/.cvspass to nfsroot, can now write the floppy image to
13     a file
14 lange 1037 added call_with_stamp subroutine, for easy creation of stamps
15     Tue Jan 29 20:19:27 CST 2002 -- Chad Walstrom <chad@debian.org>
16     Added support to run script as a recovery operation. This is a
17     glue-script; we may as well provide the ability to fix problems and
18     continue. Changes include:
19     - Adding a RUNDIR environment variable
20     - A command line option "-r" for recover operations
21     - logic tests and stampfiles to appropriate function calls
22     Checked for existance of character file dev/boot255 before calling mknod.

30 lange 1019 instead of normal ramdisk when $USETMPFS is set, strip comment lines
31     when defining classes via scripts, added subroutine do_script,
32     do_scriptss calls every script class/<classname>/S[0-9]* when class is
33     not a file, execute all S[0-9]* scripts in a directory
34     /fai/scripts/$class/, skip all comment lines when definig classes
35     * setup_harddisk: raid support for /devc/rd and /dev/ida, called with -d
36     * doc/Makefile: detect if anything is really to do
37     * use gzip -dc instead of zcat
38     * added prtnetgr; change netgroup example and script all_hosts to use it
39     * fcopy: added debug message if executing postinst, ignore CVS
40     directories, use File::Find
41     * KERNELVERSION not needed in fai.conf, now automaticly determined in
42     make-fai-* scripts
43     * Files added: THANKS, preinst, prtnetgr, pxelinux.cfg
44     * Manual pages added fai-setup, install_packages, make-fai-bootfloppy,
45     make-fai-nfroot
