debian-installer (20081029ubuntu1) jaunty; urgency=low
* Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
- Ubuntu branding of various kinds.
- Use Ubuntu kernels. Various tweaks for different udeb splits.
- Fetch distribution name and version number from lsb_release.
- Use the full version number in image directories.
- Build-depend on belocs-locales-bin.
- Various boot screen text adjustments.
- Add cli boot options.
- Add memtest boot option.
- Add live CD boot screens.
- Adjust memory size recommendations.
- Document pci=noacpi.
- Add translatable boot screen text for gfxboot. Adjust existing text to
refer to gfxboot UI where appropriate.
- Use ubuntu-keyring-udeb (and gpgv-udeb) instead of the Debian archive
keyring.
- Switch all images to initramfs.
- Add netboot images suitable for USB memory sticks.
- Remove floppy support, since it never used to work with 2.6. (This may
be fixed in the future.)
- Add kickseed-common and initrd-kickseed to all images containing
preseed-common and initrd-preseed.
- Add nfs-modules to all netboot images except powerpc, for Kickstart.
- kbd-chooser -> console-setup.
- Include keymap decision tree in all.utf.
- Replace cdebconf-newt-entropy with cdebconf-newt-detect-keys in
EXTRAUDEBS.
- Add bootchart-udeb to all images.
- Add hdparm-udeb to cdrom images.
- Add nic-firmware to netboot images and scsi-firmware to cdrom and
hd-media images.
- Make scsi-firmware optional.
- Add oem-config-check to all images.
- Ship elilo configuration on i386 for Intel-based Macs.
- Use mkvmlinuz's fallback object files on powerpc rather than relying
on the kernel's.
- Use ${RAMDISK_SIZE} in sparc's silo.conf rather than a hardcoded size.
- Add input-modules to the sparc netboot image.
- Remove auto-install/ai-choosers targets, at least for now.
- Switch i386 builds to the -generic kernel flavour.
- Add a new netboot/386 build for i386 that uses the -386 kernel
flavour.
- Publish separate kernel and initrd for sparc64 netboot.
- Don't use win32-loader on Ubuntu.
- Add support for lpia.
- Take /usr/share/localechooser/languagelist.data.gz into account when
building reduced font.
* Enable GTK frontend, as we're interested in trying it out in Ubuntu now.
* Make speakup-modules optional, as we don't have it in Ubuntu yet.
* Move mainline architectures to 2.6.27-9 kernels.
* Move ports architectures to 2.6.27-1 kernels.
* Move armel to 2.6.27-9, since it's currently being built as a mainline
architecture.
* Set default suite to jaunty.
debian-installer (20081029) unstable; urgency=low
* Disable powerpc floppy. Fixes a FTBFS in powerpc architecture.
debian-installer (20081027) unstable; urgency=low
[ Frans Pop ]
* Test that a mirror supports the target suite before it's added to
sources.list.udeb. Should fix build failures on lxdebian for s390,
which includes an incomplete mirror in its /etc/apt/sources.list.
* config/s390.cfg: avoid loading partman-auto during anna as guided
partitioning is not very useful for DASDs.
* Include isofs-modules in hd-media images now that the isofs module has
been split out of the ide-modules udeb (kernels >=2.6.25).
[ Martin Michlmayr ]
* nslu2: Make sure the whole ramdisk partition is padded now that
APEX tells the kernel to look at the whole partition.
* Remove delo from Build-Depends since DECstations are no longer
supported.
* Move arm, armel, mips and mipsel to 2.6.25.
* Enable the netwinder image again.
* Add images for QNAP TS-109, TS-209 and TS-409.
* Add an image for the HP Media Vault mv2120.
* Add an image for the Buffalo Kurobox Pro. Patch from Per Andersson
as part of his Google Summer of Code project.
* Move arm, armel and mipsel to 2.6.26.
* Move mips to 2.6.26.
* Add a README to the arm images saying that the arm port is not
recommended for new installations.
[ Joey Hess ]
* Use menu default64 support added to syslinux 2:3.63+dfsg-2 to
automatically select the amd64 installation option on multiarch images.
[ Colin Watson ]
* Test OMIT_WIN32_LOADER in arch_cd_info_dir and arch_miniiso targets as
well as arch_boot.
[ Joey Hess ]
* mountfloppy renamed to mountmedia
* floppy-retriever renamed to media-retriever
* Add usb-storage-modules to all netboot images that use mountmedia.
This will allow loading NIC drivers/firmware from a USB stick.
[ Otavio Salvador ]
* Include firewire-core-modules on cdrom images (i386 and amd64) to allow
usage of firewire dockstations (as found on some VAIO laptops). See
#488267 for reference.
* Move alpha, amd64, i386 and powerpc to 2.6.25.
[ Frans Pop ]
* Add ext2-modules for i386 boot floppy as ext2 is no longer built in.
* Move hppa, ia64 and sparc to 2.6.25.
* Add 3 characters that are directly accessible from Dutch and British
keyboards to needed-characters/nl.utf.
[ Ian Campbell ]
* Add i386 netboot-xen flavour using PAE enabled kernel compatible with PAE
and 64 bit hypervisors.
[ Robert Millan ]
* config/x86.cfg: Make desktop selection explicit in win32-loader.ini.
Closes: #486907.
[ Joey Hess ]
* Disable upx for all images due to bug #490149.
* Version newt build dependencies to ensure that buggy old versions are not
used.
[ Jérémy Bobbio ]
* Add cdebconf-gtk-terminal to graphical images.
* Move powerpc kernel to 2.6.26.
* Add virtio-modules to amd64 and i386 netboot images.
[ Otavio Salvador ]
* Move alpha, amd64, i386, ia64, hppa and sparc to 2.6.26.
[ Samuel Thibault ]
* Optionally add a beep to the x86 syslinux menu, controlled by BOOTMENU_BEEP.
This is enabled by default only for release builds.
[ Bastian Blank ]
* Move s390 to 2.6.26-1.
[ Stephen R. Marenka ]
* Move m68k to 2.6.26-1.
* Add modules to cdrom.
* Rename atari bootstra.prg to bootstra.tos.
[ Frans Pop ]
* Apply patch from Samuel Thibault to add Speakup accessibility support to
Graphical Installer images for i386 and amd64.
* Rename syslinux config files (ad)amd.cfg to (ad)amdtext.cfg for consistency.
* Drop languages that require a graphical installer for all arm and armel
images to reduce image size.
* x86: set correct default entries in the isolinux config for booting the
installer from the help screens. Closes: #500464.
* x86: add support for installing to and loading drivers/firmware from
MMC/SD cards. Closes: #498568.
