Changes: boot-floppies (3.0.16) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Adam Di Carlo:
- add Swiss German and Swiss French keymaps for several architectures
closes: #84388
- Norwegian language chooser stuff from Ole Aamot
- wait longer after unloading pcmcmia, which helps when
configuring it the 2nd time around; closes: #84363
- build issue: rootdisk lingua dependancy works correctly; other i18n
build problems fixed
- i18n: when LANG_CHOOSER is on, enable it by default in rootdisk
rather than disabling it by default; on i386, only turn it off if
the flavor isn't compact, idepci, or udma66-ext3
- bump debootstrap requirement to 0.1.15.7
- sparc: fix a rather crippling build error; sparc build is
AOK now, so we can get rid of the ancient 2.3.6 version there were
using; closes: #11425, #116092
- dbootstrap: clarify that the network install method uses http or ftp
- dbootstrap: some improved error handling
- dbootstrap: tweaky improvements in harddisk and mounted install
methods
- libfdisk seems to get confused when you have all the partition types
defined -- apparently some of them conflict. The following changes
were made to partition type support, also to trim some more bytes:
mips and mipsel doesn't support MSDOS partitions
Sun partitions only supported by sparc
Amiga, Atari, Mac, and Acord partitions only support by
m68k or powerpc
only support SGI partitions if MSDOS partitions are not
enabled
Hopefully this doesn't mess to many people up, and
closes: #99185, #115377
- on the rootdisk, when doing library reduction, include ifuser for
i386 and powerpc, needed for PCMCIA; closes: #117190
* David Kimdon
- EXTRACT_LIST_* now enforces package version during build,
based on a patch from Anthony Towns <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
- add a note pointing to the debug messages on tty4 during the
base system install
- in the name of saving space, remove cruft from dbootstrap,
disable PCMCIA for arches other that PowerPC and i386,
conditionalize things properly
- es.po update thanks to Carlos Barros <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
- da.po update thanks to Claus Hindsgaul <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* Christoph Lameter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
- (applied and tweaked by David Kimdon)
- unstatic libfdisk's part_name() for auto-partitioner
- when user wants to select an unmounted partition and there is only
one partition to choose from, don't prompt, just select it.
* Guido Guenther (in 3.0.15, changelog entries accidentally removed)
- dbootstrap: let dvhtool find the mips kernel again
- documentation/defaults.ent: fix pathnames for mips(el)
- documentation/: mips(el) documentation updates
* Richard Hirst
- Library reduction is currently broken on hppa, reduced libnewt
results in dbootstrap segv sometime before main(). Turn it off.
- don't ship driver*.bin on ia64, not useful
* Gerhard Tonn
- several fixes for s390 specific code
- don't ask for dhcp if static configured during first stage of
installation on s390
- activate loopback device during initial setup on s390
- don't overwrite peer address on s390
- support old disk layout on s390
- generate dasd parameter from attached disks
- ibm partition table rework
- add s390 specific menu item
- disable virtual console references for s390
- save and restore resolv.conf on s390
- copy network modules before modconf called
- restore /lib/modules during restart on s390
* Eduard Bloch
- droped ide flavor, should be replaced by udma100-ext3
* Chris Tillman
- add sparc notes about floppy booting; closes: #106218
- add misc stuff about mouses and kernels, closes: #81029
* Henning Heinold
- documentation/: mips documentation updates
