9 * fai-chboot: fix division by zero error
10 * fai.conf: remove $OS_TYPE
11 * fai: remove $OS_TPYPE, set $targetdir, eval_cmdline is not needed for

13 external script, use /var/log/fai/current as default LOGDIR,
14 /tmp/fai is currently a mount --bind to it
15 * fai-do-scripts: replace --no-lock with -K, this should fix cfengine's
16 segfault bug
17 * install_packages: add commands for y2pmsh, yast and rpm
18 * mount2dir: add more fs types that should be skipped
19 * fai-mirror: use different source.list when downloading packages for
20 debootstrap (closes: #361786), remove comments from PACKAGES line
21 (closes: #358910), add option -C, (closes: #318299), recreates
22 Package.gz and Release file using apt-ftparchive

24 menu, not fai-cd version

26 aptitude to allow unsigned packages without prompting
27 * menu.lst: enable timeout, use localboot as default, remove syslogd
28 flag, remove unused entries, fix IP address for demohost

35 * instsoft.FAIBASE: use fcopy for kernel-img.conf
36 * subroutines-linux: use IP address when calling fai-chboot in
37 task_chboot, this helps when the install client has two network cards

1220 * better debugging of shell scripts
1221 * remote login has all subroutines available
1222 * faireboot -s saves log files to install server

1224 portable; unfortunately setup_hardisk still using it
1225 * new mount2dir command; this task is removed from setup_hardisk

1234 * modprobe displays less errors
1235 * templates now stored in /usr/share/fai
1236 * all release timestamp in this changelog until version 1.4.2 are
1237 wrong; they indicate the time when I started hacking the next version;
1238 these are the correct release dates:
