107 [ Michael Tautschnig ]

110 settle for sid; thanks matrix.systems@matrix.msu.edu for a first patch).

112 * setup-storage/Volumes.pm: Updated mdadm --scan output parser to work with
113 current mdadm versions.

115 (GPT-related warning). Thanks Andreas Schuldei for noticing this.
116 * setup-storage, setup-storage/Sizes.pm: Properly handle -h, early check for

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

150
151 [ Thomas Lange ]
152 * menu.lst: remove year
153 * fai-cd: add option -B, that creates a boot-only CD (without containing
154 the nfsroot, the partitial mirror and the config space)

169 specified a partition is larger than the entire disk
170 * setup-storage/Parser.pm, setup-storage/Sizes.pm, setup-storage/Volumes.pm:
171 Added pseudo-disklabel gpt-bios to support GPT on systems with BIOS
172 instead of EFI. Also installs an additional partition to store whatever
173 doesn't fit into MBR.
174 * setup-storage: bumped version to 1.0.5 (gpt-bios support)

178 fai (3.2.19) unstable; urgency=low
179
180 * subroutines-linux: get-config-dir was never run if -z $monserver,
181 which may be the case when no DHCP was done (dirinstall, softupdates,
182 or install using fixed IP); problem was introduced by patch in r5338.

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

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