26 * fai-mirror: remove use of $addpackages (closes: #537544)
27 * fai.conf, make-fai-nfsroot.conf: move FAI_CONFIGDIR to m-f-n.conf,
28 because it's only needed on an install server
29 * fai-cd, fai: get FAI_CONFIGDIR from new config file

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

86
87 [ Thomas Lange ]
88 * menu.lst: remove year
89 * fai-cd: add option -B, that creates a boot-only CD (without containing
90 the nfsroot, the partitial mirror and the config space)
91 * conf/menu.lst.boot-only: new config file for the boot only CD
92 * fai-cd.8: add option -B
93 * fai-abort: add missing lsb header

100 * replaced dh_clean -k by dh_prep
101 * use dh_lintian to install lintian overrides
102 * added override for fai-nfsroot (diverts foreign /etc/init.d.rcS)
103 * Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 7)
104 * setup-storage/Sizes.pm: Clarified error message in cases where the user
105 specified a partition is larger than the entire disk
106 * setup-storage/Parser.pm, setup-storage/Sizes.pm, setup-storage/Volumes.pm:
107 Added pseudo-disklabel gpt-bios to support GPT on systems with BIOS
108 instead of EFI. Also installs an additional partition to store whatever
109 doesn't fit into MBR.
110 * setup-storage: bumped version to 1.0.5 (gpt-bios support)

114 fai (3.2.19) unstable; urgency=low
115
116 * subroutines-linux: get-config-dir was never run if -z $monserver,
117 which may be the case when no DHCP was done (dirinstall, softupdates,
118 or install using fixed IP); problem was introduced by patch in r5338.

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

197 RAID configured

252
253 * fai 3.2.17 and 3.2.17~lenny1 are identical - the difference in version

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