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

80 fai (3.2.20) unstable; urgency=low
81
82 [ Thomas Lange ]
83 * menu.lst: remove year
84 * fai-cd: add option -B, that creates a boot-only CD (without containing
85 the nfsroot, the partitial mirror and the config space)
86 * conf/menu.lst.boot-only: new config file for the boot only CD
87 * fai-cd.8: add option -B
88 * fai-abort: add missing lsb header

91
92 [ Michael Tautschnig ]

94 * update to standards version 3.8.1, no changes needed
95 * replaced dh_clean -k by dh_prep
96 * use dh_lintian to install lintian overrides
97 * added override for fai-nfsroot (diverts foreign /etc/init.d.rcS)
98 * Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 7)
99 * setup-storage/Sizes.pm: Clarified error message in cases where the user
100 specified a partition is larger than the entire disk
101 * setup-storage/Parser.pm, setup-storage/Sizes.pm, setup-storage/Volumes.pm:
102 Added pseudo-disklabel gpt-bios to support GPT on systems with BIOS
103 instead of EFI. Also installs an additional partition to store whatever
104 doesn't fit into MBR.
105 * setup-storage: bumped version to 1.0.5 (gpt-bios support)

108
109 fai (3.2.19) unstable; urgency=low
110
111 * subroutines-linux: get-config-dir was never run if -z $monserver,
112 which may be the case when no DHCP was done (dirinstall, softupdates,
113 or install using fixed IP); problem was introduced by patch in r5338.

151 patch) (closes: #523625), fixing informal message (closes: #516385)
152 * fai: set STOP_ON_ERROR to 700, this can be overwritten by fai.conf or
153 in a file called class/*.var (closes: #515139),
154 create /var/run/fai (closes: #515775)

190 * example/simple/disk_config/{LVM_XEN_SERVER,RAID_XEN_VIRTUAL}: Added
191 corresponding disk_config examples that have a large LVM and a software
192 RAID configured

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

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