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

54 * subroutines-linux: get-config-dir was never run if -z $monserver,
55 which may be the case when no DHCP was done (dirinstall, softupdates,

135 RAID configured

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

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

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