92 [ Michael Tautschnig ]
93 * setup-storage, setup-storage/Exec.pm: auto-detect a proper way to tell
94 udev to settle, hide udevsettle call (udevsettle is used in etch, udevadm
95 settle for sid; thanks matrix.systems@matrix.msu.edu for a first patch).

105 available
106 * setup-storage/Fstab.pm: Be more verbose if obtaining the UUID fails (may
107 be caused by earlier use in RAID array, tell the user how to solve the
108 problem). Ignore exit code 3 of vol_id -l, use fai-vol_id wrapper.
109 * setup-storage/Parser.pm: RAID device parsing: $2 doesn't refer to the
110 original expression anymore, store earlier $2 as $opts; don't use options
111 sub-hash (thanks Andreas Schockenhoff for lots of testing and feedback).
112 * setup-storage/Sizes.pm: Properly deal with missing (as in RAID specs) or
113 non-existing (user error) devices in estimate_size; don't do stupid divide
114 by 2 in RAID1 setup. (closes: #525138)
115 * setup-storage/Commands.pm: Proper use of hash reference when checking for
116 "missing" option.
117 * setup-storage/Parser.pm: Ensure that RAID volumes marked preserve don't
118 count as extra RAID volumes being defined.
119 * setup-storage/Parser.pm, setup-storage/Sizes.pm: Added support for raid10
120 (thanks William Francis for suggesting this).
121 * setup-storage/Volumes.pm: Fixed perl syntax error, properly handle
122 existing empty volume groups (thanks Brian Kroth and Cajus Pollmeier for
123 debugging this). (closes: #532321)
124 * man/setup-storage.8: Document possible problems with previous software
125 RAID partitions and missing bootable flags.
126 * setup-storage/Sizes.pm: Secondary GPT only requires 33 sectors.
127 * Bumped setup-storage version number to 1.1.1.

135
136 [ Thomas Lange ]
137 * menu.lst: remove year
138 * fai-cd: add option -B, that creates a boot-only CD (without containing
139 the nfsroot, the partitial mirror and the config space)

154 specified a partition is larger than the entire disk

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

162
163 fai (3.2.19) unstable; urgency=low
164
165 * subroutines-linux: get-config-dir was never run if -z $monserver,
166 which may be the case when no DHCP was done (dirinstall, softupdates,
167 or install using fixed IP); problem was introduced by patch in r5338.

205 patch) (closes: #523625), fixing informal message (closes: #516385)
206 * fai: set STOP_ON_ERROR to 700, this can be overwritten by fai.conf or
207 in a file called class/*.var (closes: #515139),

246 RAID configured
