1591 * remote login has all subroutines available
1592 * faireboot -s saves log files to install server
1593 * sfdisk call removed from subroutines and Fai.pm, since it's not
1594 portable; unfortunately setup_hardisk still using it
1595 * new mount2dir command; this task is removed from setup_hardisk
1596 * files in package_config can use dpkg --get-selections format
1597 * redundant packages in package_config/COMPILE removed
1598 * PRELOADRM feature for package_config
1599 * comments in files in package_config/ are now everything after a #, not
1600 only at the beginning of a line
1601 * lvm not in nfsroot by default, grub now included
1602 * access from install clients to server can be done via rsh/rcp or
1603 ssh/scp (see fai.conf)
1604 * modprobe displays less errors
1605 * templates now stored in /usr/share/fai
1606 * all release timestamp in this changelog until version 1.4.2 are
1607 wrong; they indicate the time when I started hacking the next version;
1608 these are the correct release dates:
