18 [ Thomas Lange ]
19 * menu.lst: remove year
20 * fai-cd: add option -B, that creates a boot-only CD (without containing

23 * fai-cd.8: add option -B
24 * fai-abort: add missing lsb header

27
28 [ Michael Tautschnig ]
29 * fixed several hyphen-used-as-minus-sign errors in man pages
30 * update to standards version 3.8.1, no changes needed
31 * replaced dh_clean -k by dh_prep
32 * use dh_lintian to install lintian overrides
33 * added override for fai-nfsroot (diverts foreign /etc/init.d.rcS)
34 * Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 7)
35 * setup-storage/Sizes.pm: Clarified error message in cases where the user
36 specified a partition is larger than the entire disk
37 * setup-storage/Parser.pm, setup-storage/Sizes.pm, setup-storage/Volumes.pm:
38 Added pseudo-disklabel gpt-bios to support GPT on systems with BIOS
39 instead of EFI. Also installs an additional partition to store whatever
40 doesn't fit into MBR.

45 fai (3.2.19) unstable; urgency=low
46
47 * subroutines-linux: get-config-dir was never run if -z $monserver,
48 which may be the case when no DHCP was done (dirinstall, softupdates,
49 or install using fixed IP); problem was introduced by patch in r5338.

127 corresponding disk_config examples that have a large LVM and a software
128 RAID configured
129 * conf/NFSROOT, debian/control, setup-storage/Volumes.pm: Moving back to
130 Linux::LVM perl module for parsing LVM command output as #488205 has been
131 fixed.

133 glob patterns in device names (e.g., /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-*)
134 * setup-storage/Sizes.pm: Fail early, if a non-existing device is used in a
135 volume group.
136 * setup-storage/Commands.pm: Properly handle existing volume groups and only

140 disklabel, if no partition on the disk must be preserved
141 * setup-storage/Parser.pm, setup-storage/Commands.pm: Make sure that the

163 must be read using $PIPESTATUS, not $? (closes: #444210)

167 markers also check whether the to-be-preserved volume is defined at all

182 fai (3.2.17) unstable; urgency=medium
183
184 * fai 3.2.17 and 3.2.17~lenny1 are identical - the difference in version
185 number is only due to the way packages move within Debian releases.

188 thanks to Andrew Ruthven for reporting this. (Closes: #504662)
