29 [ Michael Tautschnig ]
30 * setup-storage/Parser.pm: Set the boot flag on partition mounted at /, if
31 bootable is not explicitly set.
32 * setup-storage, setup-storage/Exec.pm: auto-detect a proper way to tell
33 udev to settle (udevsettle is used in etch, udevadm settle for sid; thanks
34 matrix.systems@matrix.msu.edu for a first patch). (closes: #530656)
35 * setup-storage/Volumes.pm: Updated mdadm --scan output parser to work with
36 current mdadm versions.
37 * setup-storage/Volumes.pm: Ignore another line of output from parted
38 (GPT-related warning). Thanks Andreas Schuldei for noticing this.
39 * setup-storage, setup-storage/Sizes.pm: Properly handle -h, early check for
40 unset (but necessary) environment variables, print full device names in
41 several error/warning messages instead of the partition id only.
42 * setup-storage/Fstab.pm: Be more verbose if obtaining the UUID fails (may
43 be caused by earlier use in RAID array, tell the user how to solve the
44 problem). Ignore exit code 3 of vol_id -l.
45 * setup-storage/Parser.pm: RAID device parsing: $2 doesn't refer to the
46 original expression anymore, store earlier $2 as $opts; don't use options
47 sub-hash (thanks Andreas Schockenhoff for lots of testing and feedback).
48 * setup-storage/Sizes.pm: Properly deal with missing (as in RAID specs) or
49 non-existing (user error) devices in estimate_size; don't do stupid divide
50 by 2 in RAID1 setup. (closes: #525138)
51 * setup-storage/Commands.pm: Proper use of hash reference when checking for
52 "missing" option.
53 * setup-storage/Parser.pm: Ensure that RAID volumes marked preserve don't
54 count as extra RAID volumes being defined.
55 * setup-storage/Parser.pm, setup-storage/Sizes.pm: Added support for raid10
56 (thanks William Francis for suggesting this).
57 * setup-storage/Volumes.pm: Fixed perl syntax error, properly handle
58 existing empty volume groups (thanks Brian Kroth and Cajus Pollmeier for
59 debugging this). (closes: #532321)
60 * Bumped setup-storage version number to 1.1.

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

84 specified a partition is larger than the entire disk

93 fai (3.2.19) unstable; urgency=low
94
95 * subroutines-linux: get-config-dir was never run if -z $monserver,
96 which may be the case when no DHCP was done (dirinstall, softupdates,
97 or install using fixed IP); problem was introduced by patch in r5338.

135 patch) (closes: #523625), fixing informal message (closes: #516385)

176 RAID configured

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