64 [ Michael Tautschnig ]
65 * setup-storage/Parser.pm: Set the boot flag on partition mounted at /, if
66 bootable is not explicitly set.
67 * setup-storage, setup-storage/Exec.pm: auto-detect a proper way to tell
68 udev to settle (udevsettle is used in etch, udevadm settle for sid; thanks
69 matrix.systems@matrix.msu.edu for a first patch). (closes: #530656)
70 * setup-storage/Volumes.pm: Updated mdadm --scan output parser to work with

75 unset (but necessary) environment variables, print full device names in
76 several error/warning messages instead of the partition id only.
77 * setup-storage/Fstab.pm: Be more verbose if obtaining the UUID fails (may
78 be caused by earlier use in RAID array, tell the user how to solve the
79 problem). Ignore exit code 3 of vol_id -l.
80 * setup-storage/Parser.pm: RAID device parsing: $2 doesn't refer to the
81 original expression anymore, store earlier $2 as $opts; don't use options
82 sub-hash (thanks Andreas Schockenhoff for lots of testing and feedback).
83 * setup-storage/Sizes.pm: Properly deal with missing (as in RAID specs) or
84 non-existing (user error) devices in estimate_size; don't do stupid divide
85 by 2 in RAID1 setup. (closes: #525138)
86 * setup-storage/Commands.pm: Proper use of hash reference when checking for
87 "missing" option.
88 * setup-storage/Parser.pm: Ensure that RAID volumes marked preserve don't
89 count as extra RAID volumes being defined.
90 * setup-storage/Parser.pm, setup-storage/Sizes.pm: Added support for raid10
91 (thanks William Francis for suggesting this).
92 * setup-storage/Volumes.pm: Fixed perl syntax error, properly handle
93 existing empty volume groups (thanks Brian Kroth and Cajus Pollmeier for
94 debugging this). (closes: #532321)
95 * Bumped setup-storage version number to 1.1.

101 [ Thomas Lange ]
102 * menu.lst: remove year
103 * fai-cd: add option -B, that creates a boot-only CD (without containing
104 the nfsroot, the partitial mirror and the config space)

106 * fai-cd.8: add option -B

121 Added pseudo-disklabel gpt-bios to support GPT on systems with BIOS
122 instead of EFI. Also installs an additional partition to store whatever
123 doesn't fit into MBR.

128 fai (3.2.19) unstable; urgency=low
129
130 * subroutines-linux: get-config-dir was never run if -z $monserver,
131 which may be the case when no DHCP was done (dirinstall, softupdates,
132 or install using fixed IP); problem was introduced by patch in r5338.

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