gbootroot (1.4.1-1) unstable; urgency=low
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
  * Updated to 2.4.19-49um and the latest uml tools 20030202.
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
  * Updated to 2.4.19-46um and the latest uml tools 20021103.
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
  * Added nesting level 1 to the uml to allow gbootroot to have full
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
    functionality under another uml running on the host kernel.  This
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
    means the uml will use more memory, but its negligible.
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
  * Wrote and added a C program skas-or-tt to automatically add the
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
    proper mode={skas,tt} to the commandline.  This means compilation
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
    will be optimized, and things won't lock up when using gbootroot
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
    within a uml running on top of a host kernel without the skas patch.
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
  * The MTD Emulator doesn't work as nicely as before.  Blkmtd seems
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
    mostly broken, and mtdram needs more careful tweaking for total
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
    size, though mtdram definitely still works.  This is due to changes
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
    in uml which will have to be addressed since the code for the mtd
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
    modules didn't change.
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
  * Had to add user-mode-linux/usr/lib/uml to the PATH to allow --home
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
    to find port-helper, or otherwise root_fs complain.  Have no idea
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
    why this change exists with the new port-helper because that wasn't
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
    the case before.  Also, added path for user-mode-linux/usr/bin to
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
    find the other tools.
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
  * The Makefile has been altered quite a bit, and wgets necessary
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
    sources, unconventional but very nice in keeping up with jdike's
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
    latest patch.  You can now live quite happily out of the source
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
    directory.
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
  * Added the templates for Initrd and root_fs_helper and the
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
    corresponding replacements that are also used by the source package.
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
  * Updated the documentation, and the README found in the source
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
    packages is now available in the normal packages.
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
  * The biggest change is the command-line interface with the yard root
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
    method.  Now distribute your template and let others easily recreate
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
    your root_fs without entering the gui by running "gbootroot --
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
    template your_template" and this is a nice way to manage a
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
    distribution you are developing.  This also means that source
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
    packages are completely automated now, and vastly improved, which is
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
    quite awesome.
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
  * When root_fs_helper was running with the newer Expect.pm, and
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
    consequentially the newer uml kernel it became necessary to get out
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
    when the kernel shuts down with a last function right when it says
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
    "Power down" or "bd.*module cleaned up."
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
  * Checks for the proper version for newer libc6 linkers.  Hopefully,
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
    should work properly with libc6 > 2.3.1, too.
