Change logs for rootskel source package in Jaunty

  • rootskel (1.73ubuntu2) jaunty; urgency=low
    
      * Use 'update-dev --settle' rather than 'update-dev' after loading fbcon
        module. Requires di-utils 1.66.

  • rootskel (1.73ubuntu1) jaunty; urgency=low
    
      * Resynchronise with Debian (thanks to Alessio Treglia for a similar
        attempt, though I'm doing this independently since rootskel is
        maintained in bzr; LP: #309949). Remaining changes:
        - Provide the ability to choose a remote logging host and port if
          specified on the kernel command line.
        - init: Add support for disabling the shells on tty2 and tty3 by
          specifying a 'noshell' option on the kernel cmdline. Useful for
          unattended installations in a public place.
      * Set Vcs-Bzr field for Ubuntu to avoid further merges outside bzr.
    
    rootskel (1.73) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * hppa: load hilkbd module and register the module for inclusion in initrd
        for the target system. Closes: #416208.
    
    rootskel (1.72) unstable; urgency=low
    
      [ Jérémy Bobbio ]
      * Add missing copyright statements for steal-ctty.
      * steal-ctty: add missing #include for perror().
    
      [ Frans Pop ]
      * reopen-console: fix syntax error.
    
    rootskel (1.71) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Add a check in reopen-console that the console reported as "handed over"
        is of the correct type. In some cases dmesg reports a virtual console,
        while the actual console the init process is running on is serial.
        A simplified version of busybox' cttyhack is used to perform the check.
        Closes: #504721.

  • rootskel (1.70ubuntu1) jaunty; urgency=low
    
      * Merge from debian unstable, remaining changes: (LP: #303879)
        - Provide the ability to choose a remote logging host and port if
          specified on the kernel command line.
        - init: Add support for disabling the shells on tty2 and tty3 by
          specifying a 'noshell' option on the kernel cmdline. Useful for
          unattended installations in a public place.
    
    rootskel (1.70) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Support real devices for console on s390. (closes: #504760)

  • rootskel (1.69ubuntu1) jaunty; urgency=low
    
      * Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
        - Provide the ability to choose a remote logging host and port if
          specified on the kernel command line.
        - init: Add support for disabling the shells on tty2 and tty3 by
          specifying a 'noshell' option on the kernel cmdline. Useful for
          unattended installations in a public place.
    
    rootskel (1.69) unstable; urgency=low
    
      [ Frans Pop ]
      * reopen-console: ignore consoles found in boot messages for which no
        device file exists. Closes: #499030.
    
    rootskel (1.68) unstable; urgency=low
    
      [ Martin Michlmayr ]
      * Load required udebs for the NSLU2 automatically (partman-auto,
        partman-ext3 and usb-storage-modules).   (Closes: #498795)
      * Load required udebs for the Cobalt automatically (partman-auto,
        partman-ext2r0 and partman-ext3).
      * Remove S40framebuffer-module-linux-mips since framebuffer on
        SB1 machines never worked.
      * Move S59cobalt-welcome from cobalt-scripts to rootskel since
        cobalt-scripts only contains this single script.
    
      [ Jérémy Bobbio ]
      * reopen-console: Save the console device found from kernel messages in
        /var/run/console-device as it is possible that those would be unavailable
        later on.
      * Move back the switch from /dev/console to the real console device in
        /etc/inittab as doing it before calling init does not really work.
    
    rootskel (1.67) unstable; urgency=low
    
      [ Martin Michlmayr ]
      * Update the initrd init to use start-udev/reopen-console.
    
    rootskel (1.66) unstable; urgency=low
    
      [ Jérémy Bobbio ]
      * Start udev before running init.
        Depends: udev-udeb (>= 0.125-6)
      * Rework the switch from /dev/console to the real console device
        (e.g. /dev/tty0).  (Closes: #484366)
        Breaks: cdebconf-gtk-udeb (<< 0.134)
    
    rootskel (1.65) unstable; urgency=low
    
      [ Colin Watson ]
      * Add debian-installer/exit/poweroff to run poweroff rather than reboot or
        halt at the end of the installation. Requested by Crispin Flowerday.
    
      [ Martin Michlmayr ]
      * Only set DEBCONF_DROP_TRANSLATIONS=1 if it is not set yet.  This
        allows others (e.g. oldsys-preseed) to set the variable to 0 before
        S70menu is run.
    
    rootskel (1.64) unstable; urgency=low
    
      [ Samuel Thibault ]
      * Add basic support for speakup (voice synthesis for accessibility).
    
      [ Martin Michlmayr ]
      * Add a startup script to change the LED on the HP mv2120 to indicate
        the status of d-i.
    
      [ Frams Pop ]
      * Stop the udev daemon before unmounting file systems when D-I is shut down.
        Not doing so results in errors with udev 0.124. Closes: #490924.
    
    rootskel (1.63) unstable; urgency=low
    
      [ Joey Hess ]
      * Rename toplevel /floppy mountpoint to /media, as used by the newly
        renamed mountmedia.
    
      [ Frans Pop ]
      * Apply patch from Samuel Thibault to also expose the theme to the text
        frontend. Closes: #488493.

  • rootskel (1.62ubuntu1) intrepid; urgency=low
    
      * Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
        - Provide the ability to choose a remote logging host and port if
          specified on the kernel command line.
        - init: Add support for disabling the shells on tty2 and tty3 by
          specifying a 'noshell' option on the kernel cmdline. Useful for
          unattended installations on a public place.
    
    rootskel (1.62) unstable; urgency=low
    
      [ Frans Pop ]
      * Remove Bdale Garbee, Kenshi Muto and Matt Kraai as Uploaders with many
        thanks for their past contributions.
    
      [ Joey Hess ]
      * Fix FTBFS on alpha.
    
    rootskel (1.61) unstable; urgency=low
    
      [ Frans Pop ]
      * S35term: script is sourced, so remove the shebang.
      * S35framebuffer-linux: export TERM_FRAMEBUFFER so that can be used to test
        whether framebuffer is available or not (e.g. in localechooser).
    
      [ Joey Hess ]
      * Translated bootfloppy init to a C program, this allows dropping
        the shell from the boot floppy to save space.
    
    rootskel (1.60) unstable; urgency=low
    
      [ Frans Pop ]
      * S40framebuffer-module-linux-alpha: remove redundant architecture test.
      * S40framebuffer-module-linux-x86: allow for the fact that vesafb and fbcon
        can be (and are) compiled in for i386 and amd64 kernels.
    
      [ Joey Hess ]
      * Fix debugshell on boot floppy, there is no sh command, have to use the
        klibc sh.
      * Rewrite boot floppy init to try to load a cpio archive direct from the
        floppy with no encapsulating filesystem. This will save space by
        allowing modularising ext2 in the kernel.
      * There's no sleep command on the boot floppy, don't try to use it.
    
    rootskel (1.59) unstable; urgency=low
    
      [ Frans Pop ]
      * Fix number of CPUs count for alpha.
      * Add number of CPUs count for hppa. Thanks to Grant Grundler for his
        suggestion how that could be done.
      * Stop creating /usr/lib/prebaseconfig.d; it was deprecated ages ago.
    
      [ Joey Hess ]
      * Modify init to support userdevfs again.
    
      [ Frans Pop ]
      * Use new busybox' cttyhack in /etc/inittab to ensure that the console
        gets identified correctly as a tty for the init scripts.
        Requires: busybox (>= 1:1.9.1-3).
