4    * *.source files now *.var, because the define variables    * package upgrade does not remove nfsroot (closes: #123463)
5    * converted many cfengine scripts to shell scripts    * many files: use $FAI instead of fixes /fai, config file moved to
6    * new fcopy script for copying files with classes      from /etc/fai.conf to /etc/fai/fai.conf
7    * new ftar script for extracting tar files with classes    * store log files to $LOGDIR (default to /tmp/fai), can be set in fai.conf

11        variables added: FAI, FAI_DEBOOTSTRAP_OPTS
12      * make-fai-nfsroot sets up pxelinux environment
13        automaticly determine kernel version; added get_kernel_version(),

15        a file
16        added call_with_stamp subroutine, for easy creation of stamps
17        Tue Jan 29 20:19:27 CST 2002 -- Chad Walstrom <chad@debian.org>
18        Added support to run script as a recovery operation.  This is a
19        glue-script; we may as well provide the ability to fix problems and
20        continue.  Changes include:
21           - Adding a RUNDIR environment variable
22           - A command line option "-r" for recover operations
23           - logic tests and stampfiles to appropriate function calls
24        Checked for existance of character file dev/boot255 before calling mknod.
25        Checked for existance of $NFSROOT/proc/modules file before calling
26        umount $NFSROOT/proc
27        Recursively copies contents of /etc/fai/ directory (good if using CVS)
28        Install $NFSROOT_PACKAGES in a second pass, to sidestep conflicts
29        (e.g. so that ssh may replace rsh-client)
30        Don't set up $LOGUSER's home directory if that variable is undefined
31        add variable FAI_DEBOOTSTRAP_OPTS
32      * conf/fai_modules_off: more modules turned off
33      * call openvt with full shell path (closes: #134641)

40        subroutine:umount_local_disks, added $netdevices_up, use $tfsab
41        instead of fstab (for solaris support), /fai is now $FAI, mount shm
42        file system if available, otherwise use normal ramdisk, strip comment lines
43        when defining classes via scripts, added subroutine do_script,
44        do_scriptss calls every script class/<classname>/S[0-9]* when class is
45        not a file, execute all S[0-9]* scripts in a directory
46        /fai/scripts/$class/, skip all comment lines when definig classes
47        task_partition() call setup_harddisk only if no disk_var.sh exists
48        defclass also sources all scripts class/S*.source
49        add subroutines adddivert(), rmalldivert(); task_finish calls
50        rmalldivert, task_sysinfo calls kudzu; save_log*() -maxdepth not
51        needed for find, save_log*() now uses date and time for directory name;
