121
122 [ Michael Tautschnig ]
123 * setup-storage, setup-storage/Exec.pm: auto-detect a proper way to tell
124 udev to settle, hide udevsettle call (udevsettle is used in etch, udevadm
125 settle for sid; thanks matrix.systems@matrix.msu.edu for a first patch).
126 (closes: #530656)
127 * setup-storage/Volumes.pm: Updated mdadm --scan output parser to work with
128 current mdadm versions.
129 * setup-storage/Volumes.pm: Ignore another line of output from parted
130 (GPT-related warning). Thanks Andreas Schuldei for noticing this.
131 * setup-storage, setup-storage/Sizes.pm: Properly handle -h, early check for
132 unset (but necessary) environment variables, print full device names in
133 several error/warning messages instead of the partition id only.

135 available (closes: #552133)
136 * setup-storage/Fstab.pm: Be more verbose if obtaining the UUID fails (may
137 be caused by earlier use in RAID array, tell the user how to solve the
138 problem). Ignore exit code 3 of vol_id -l, use fai-vol_id wrapper.
139 * setup-storage/Parser.pm: RAID device parsing: $2 doesn't refer to the
140 original expression anymore, store earlier $2 as $opts; don't use options
141 sub-hash (thanks Andreas Schockenhoff for lots of testing and feedback).
142 * setup-storage/Sizes.pm: Properly deal with missing (as in RAID specs) or
143 non-existing (user error) devices in estimate_size; don't do stupid divide
144 by 2 in RAID1 setup. (closes: #525138)
145 * setup-storage/Commands.pm: Proper use of hash reference when checking for
146 "missing" option.
147 * setup-storage/Parser.pm: Ensure that RAID volumes marked preserve don't
148 count as extra RAID volumes being defined.
149 * setup-storage/Parser.pm, setup-storage/Sizes.pm: Added support for raid10
150 (thanks William Francis for suggesting this).
151 * setup-storage/Volumes.pm: Fixed perl syntax error, properly handle
152 existing empty volume groups (thanks Brian Kroth and Cajus Pollmeier for
153 debugging this). (closes: #532321)
154 * man/setup-storage.8: Document possible problems with previous software
155 RAID partitions and missing bootable flags.
156 * setup-storage/Sizes.pm: Secondary GPT only requires 33 sectors.
157 * Bumped setup-storage version number to 1.1.1.

165
166 [ Thomas Lange ]

184 specified a partition is larger than the entire disk

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

193 fai (3.2.19) unstable; urgency=low
194
195 * subroutines-linux: get-config-dir was never run if -z $monserver,
196 which may be the case when no DHCP was done (dirinstall, softupdates,
197 or install using fixed IP); problem was introduced by patch in r5338.

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

237 in a file called class/*.var (closes: #515139),
