3 [ Thomas Lange ]
4 * lib/mkramdisk: new script that mounts a ramdisk onto a directory and
5 copies its contents to the ramdisk, can also umount the ramdisk and
6 put the modified contents back to the hard disks, this script is a
7 modified version of mkrw from FAI 3.1.8., use /dev/shm for temp file
8 * upstart.conf: fix timing issue (thanks to Waldemar Brodkorb for the
9 patch)

210 * setup-storage/Parser.pm: RAID device parsing: $2 doesn't refer to the
211 original expression anymore, store earlier $2 as $opts; don't use options
212 sub-hash (thanks Andreas Schockenhoff for lots of testing and feedback).

214 diskX to use the entire disk (thanks Mathieu Alorent).

223 (thanks William Francis for suggesting this).
224 * setup-storage/Volumes.pm: Fixed perl syntax error, properly handle
225 existing empty volume groups (thanks Brian Kroth and Cajus Pollmeier for
226 debugging this). (closes: #532321)

228 RAID partitions and missing bootable flags.
