Changelog for kiwi-desc-netboot-4.85.5-2.1.noarch.rpm :

* Fri Dec 16 2011 msAATTsuse.de- reverted last change because the required packages are not part of the distribution which caused a regression (bnc #734887)
* Thu Dec 08 2011 msAATTsuse.de- removed binary packages provided as local repo (bnc #734887)
* moved SLE10 repo from local to remote
* moved SLE11 repo from local to remote
* Fri Nov 25 2011 msAATTsuse.de- fixed parameter quoting of setupBootLoader() functions (bnc #729315)
* Fri Nov 25 2011 msAATTsuse.de- fixed creation of initial aligned partition table in KIWIBoot.pm In SuSE studio the loop device which is normally the target for parted is relinked behind the scene to a virtio device. As result parted now sees a real disk geometry and that induced the bug in kiwi which is not visible if it operates on the file mapped loop device only. Looking at that partition code has turned out that the alignment is broken which in the end broke the repartition process in the first boot of an oem install image. The code is now fixed to work properly on any storage device (bnc #729636)
* Mon Nov 21 2011 msAATTsuse.de- apply quoting of .profile contents during build (bnc #729315)
* Thu Nov 10 2011 msAATTsuse.de- fixed parameter quoting in setupBootLoader (bnc #729315)
* Wed Nov 09 2011 msAATTsuse.de- make sure partedSectorInit() comes up with an initial value for the start sector if the partition table is empty (bnc #729251)
* Tue Nov 08 2011 msAATTsuse.de- removed dead code in iso boot code due to the removal of the swap file support (bnc #728645)
* Tue Nov 08 2011 msAATTsuse.de- don\'t create a swap file if no swap partition can be found in the live iso boot code. people complained about the creation of swap files while this is not expected. (bnc #728645)
* Tue Nov 08 2011 msAATTsuse.de- make sure importFile() stays backward compatible and ensures proper quoting. Also make sure the prefixed variable copy is only created if a prefix was set (bnc #728357)- switch from tar to rsync based copies. Reason for the change is because tar doesn\'t support file attributes like xattr,acls and fscaps (bnc #728312)
* Wed Nov 02 2011 msAATTsuse.de- fixed repartition code to create an aligned table (bnc #721580)
* Thu Oct 27 2011 msAATTsuse.de- fixed appliance name escaping. One can use any string for the displayname attribute which is now properly escaped via perl\'s quotemeta(). Along with this change the image name attribute must match the pattern [a-zA-Z0-9_\\-\\.] (bnc #716992)
* Tue Oct 25 2011 msAATTsuse.de- make the info module write the imagescan XML into a tmpfile (bnc #726337)
* Mon Oct 24 2011 msAATTsuse.de- fixed escaping of chown parameters (bnc #725706)
* Mon Oct 24 2011 msAATTsuse.de- fixed patch typo: $main::global->mount() must be $main::mount() in this branch, regression added with commit: 9414da9a845f73bf
* Mon Oct 24 2011 msAATTsuse.de- don\'t setup grub gfxboot message if no message file exists (bnc #724787)- added support for overlay file and archive listing in info module
* Fri Oct 14 2011 msAATTsuse.de- xen dom0 support exists only for x86_64 architecture in SLE11 SP2. Therefore we check for this arch in the boot image descriptions
* Fri Oct 14 2011 msAATTsuse.de- incorporate KIWICollect fixes from roAATTsuse.de and behlertAATTsuse.de
* next try for KIWICollect: go back to version before Oct 7th
* fix last change in KIWICollect: do not change the loop for metapackages but the loop for normal packages
* Thu Oct 13 2011 msAATTsuse.de- fetchFile does not handle special characters consistently. fetchFile \"some%20file\" with atftp correctly downloads \'some%20file\'. but with ftp curl converts the file name to \'some file\', which is not expected. This patch fixes this and makes the behavior consistent
* Tue Oct 11 2011 msAATTsuse.de- added preException hook which runs inside the systemExcpetion function to allow further tasks before the exception message is printed and the shell/reboot/wait action happens- fixed the check for the installed system in the netboot code if the luks encryption is used. The check calls luksOpen with luks_open_can_fail=yes. This means if the wrong passphrase is given the check will proceed with \'update is required\' and does not fail with a reboot exception in luksOpen- added hooks preswap/postswap which run before the check and creation of the imageSwapDevice. This allows to setup your own swap device handling.- allow luksOpen to fail if luks_open_can_fail is set- allow map name to be specified in luksClose- fixed updateOtherDeviceFstab to make use of the prefix argument- don\'t show the LUKS passphrase as part of the boot log
* Fri Oct 07 2011 msAATTsuse.de- fixed the collection of multiple instances of one package based on version, repository and architecture in case they are source or debug packages.- make sure updateOtherDeviceFstab creates the mount point- activate only volume group stored in $VGROUP, prevent vgscan- fixed luksOpen to generate unique name for luksroot- fixed luksOpen to stop asking for the passphrase after 3 times- fixed updateOtherDeviceFstab to work in luks and/or RAID env- fixed luksOpen to wait until the mapper created the device- allow luks_pass to be set on the kernel commandline- added level sorting for LVM volumes to make sure e.g /opt is mounted before /opt/bob
* Wed Sep 21 2011 msAATTsuse.de- fixed download of md5 file in oem pxe install mode- make sure iputils is there in oemboot for pxe based installation
* Mon Sep 19 2011 msAATTsuse.de- allow long names in install iso images (-joliet-long) This is related to (bnc #716149)
* Wed Aug 31 2011 adrianAATTsuse.de- product build: repository prios are more important then fallback architectures
* Tue Aug 30 2011 msAATTsuse.de- make sure $prio variable is initialized empty for each repo validation (bnc #714927)
* Wed Aug 24 2011 msAATTsuse.de- don\'t remove data from initial boot partition- call setupBootPartition() only if systemIntegrity is != fine- clean up setupBootPartition, create mount points inside the initrd- clean up netboot code, setup bootid before mountSystem and let setupBootPartition do the setup of the boot contents- added support for pxe luks encrypted images
* Tue Aug 23 2011 msAATTsuse.de- fixed boot code: explicitly wait until the background job showing the progress information has finished- let atftpProgress() read output directly so there is just one job- fixed fetchFile(): enable progress only for block devices, without this it showed the progress for md5 and other files when the first image download failed.- fixed fetchFile(): fbiterm does not work with serial console, added fallback when it fails- fixed fetchFile(): loadCode value from the background job is returned correctly now
* Tue Aug 23 2011 msAATTsuse.de- make sure atftpProgress() finishes _after_ the atftp process has concluded the download, related to (bnc #713167)
* Tue Aug 23 2011 msAATTsuse.de- use $imageBlkSize as parameter for atftpProgress()- take care for handling of re-sent blocks in atftpProgress()- fixed atftp error output handling $TRANSFER_ERRORS_FILE vs. /tmp/atftp_trace- fixed atftp blocksize detection - with multicast the block number 1 does not have to be at the beginning
* Tue Aug 23 2011 msAATTsuse.de- added atftpProgress() function which implements the progress information for atftp by watching the atftp trace output. atftp seeks in the output stream which forbids the use of pipes for the progress information (bnc #713167)
* Mon Aug 22 2011 msAATTsuse.de- make sure fribidi stays installed in netboot. It\'s required for the fbiterm based progress information (bnc #713173)
* Mon Aug 22 2011 msAATTsuse.de- don\'t use pipes in combination with atftp (bnc #713167)
* Fri Aug 19 2011 msAATTsuse.de- don\'t remove netcfg from boot images. This would remove the etc/hosts file which might be required. Along with this change also fixed the cleanupResolvConf() function which has to reset the needResolvConf and needHosts flags in order to prevent a deletion at a later point in time (bnc #713158)
* Thu Aug 18 2011 msAATTsuse.de- added support for download and verification progress information for pxe (netboot) images (bnc #708711)- added support for pxe buffered write on destination device in fetchFile() function used for netboot images. By default a chunk size of 4k is used
* Mon Aug 15 2011 msAATTsuse.de- in 12.1 the sysconfig.kernel file has been changed into a sysconfig.kernel-mkinitrd file.
* Wed Jul 27 2011 msAATTsuse.de- allow bootwait post dump action in combination with other post dump action
* Mon Jul 18 2011 adrianAATTsuse.de- skip catalog relocation and fixing on apple medias to avoid failure
* Mon Jul 18 2011 msAATTsuse.de- do not try to run boot loader setup code when no boot loader exists. This commit integrates the kiwi-relocateCatalog.patch from Rudi (slightly modified by Adrian) into the git (bnc #705208)
* Sun Jul 17 2011 roAATTsuse.de- failing relocateCatalog or fixCatalog is not a fatal error, at least not for images that are not bootable or for ppc
* Thu Jul 14 2011 msAATTsuse.de- use the --one-file-system option for tar when copying the system image tree. This prevents the copy of files existing beyond the local filesystem (bnc #705717)
* Wed Jul 13 2011 msAATTsuse.de- make sure relocateCatalog and fixCatalog is called for SuSE installation media (bnc #705208)
* Tue Jul 05 2011 msAATTsuse.de- added check if reading the md5 file was successful (bnc #703829)
* Tue Jun 28 2011 msAATTsuse.de- allow firstboot and autoyast service to be enabled together (bnc #700105)
* Tue Jun 28 2011 msAATTsuse.de- added quoting of special characters for kiwi_oemtitle (bnc #702044)
* Mon Jun 20 2011 msAATTsuse.de- remove 79-kms.rules udev rule from kiwi initrd (bnc #659843)
* Mon Jun 20 2011 msAATTsuse.de- changed __getBootSize() function so that it multiplies the calculated minimum boot space by 3 to allow proper kernel updates (bnc #698161)
* Wed Jun 08 2011 msAATTsuse.de- changed kiwi version number from a two part version into a three part version number: v4.85.1. The major and minor part of the version will not change with bugfix releases. The following rules should apply to the version number: major.minor.release. major change might include incompatible changes. minor change includes features and schema version updates. release change includes any kind of bugfixes
* Tue Jun 07 2011 msAATTsuse.de- don\'t use a fixed value for the size of the boot partition. The size among others depends on how many kernels were installed. Thus a fixed value is always wrong. The new function __getBootSize() is used to check the actual size of the boot/
* area and this value is used to create the boot partition if required. In case of an oem image the re-creation of the boot partition happens based on the original boot partition size (bnc #698161)
* Mon Jun 06 2011 msAATTsuse.de- fixed location of squashfs in drivers section for sle10
* Fri Jun 03 2011 msAATTsuse.de- added squashfs in drivers section of SLE10 boot image descriptions
* Fri Jun 03 2011 msAATTsuse.de- fixed xsl style sheets, apply changes only if the schema version of the input data is smaller than the style sheet version (bnc #697647)
* Wed Jun 01 2011 msAATTsuse.de- fixed the problem where the element is being dropped during XML file upgrade if the element is specified as a child of . The element is moved to every
* Tue May 31 2011 msAATTsuse.de- really fixed setupConsole to remove the ttyS0 console if no ttyS0 device exists (bnc #695948)
* Wed May 25 2011 msAATTsuse.de- enhanced setupConsole to remove the ttyS0 console if no ttyS0 device exists (bnc #695948)- fixed setupConsole() if search string appears as comment- use -t squashfs to mount the installation image. This works around the problem if libuuid doesn\'t know the squashfs signature
* Mon May 23 2011 msAATTsuse.de- s390: fixed disk online code, wait for disk device to appear (bnc #693031)- add SLE 11 SP 2 media style plugin, using sha256 sums for meta data
* Fri May 13 2011 msAATTsuse.de- version update to 4.85 per fate request (fate #311430)
* Fri Mar 04 2011 msAATTsuse.de- netboot: allow network boot in degraded raid mode (bnc #668014)- netboot: remove superblocks from raid disks if RAID has been dectivated in config. (bnc #668014)
* Mon Feb 28 2011 msAATTsuse.de- don\'t ignore blocksize value from config. (bnc #675004)
* Thu Feb 24 2011 msAATTsuse.de- added support for netboot config files update. The update happens according to the value of an optional md5sum hash specified per file
* Mon Feb 21 2011 msAATTsuse.de- changed raid 1 support for pxe images. The former implementation can only use raid for the root partition. This implementation allows a custom partition table to be mapped in one raid 1 per partition
* Tue Feb 08 2011 msAATTsuse.de- fixed partition alignment code (bnc #670299)
* Wed Jan 26 2011 msAATTsuse.de- added missing ldconfig call in rpmLibs() function (bnc #667082)
* Mon Jan 24 2011 msAATTsuse.de- added support for raid 1 (mirroring) for pxe images
* Mon Jan 17 2011 msAATTsuse.de- don\'t remove libresolv and libnss_dns from initrd (bnc #664593)
* Mon Jan 17 2011 msAATTsuse.de- fixed bootstick deployment, don\'t remove existing boot data (bnc #654617)
* Thu Jan 13 2011 msAATTsuse.de- fixed fdisk setup in alignment mode. fdisk is not able to suggest the correct next sector if called with the option \"-u\". Therefore only one partition is created in that mode and the rest is created in fdisk cylinder based mode (bnc #664236)- make sure fixupFDiskSectors() is called on a non busy table (bnc #664236)- make sure fixupFDiskSectors() only fixes the first partition start sector and doesn\'t touch the others (bnc #664236)
* Wed Jan 12 2011 msAATTsuse.de- fixed inclusion of recovery tarball which failed if a relative destination directory was specified (bnc #663779)
* Tue Jan 11 2011 ugAATTsuse.de- fix for bnc#605981 Not able to create custom graphical image with IBM javapos rpm packages
* Thu Dec 23 2010 msAATTsuse.de- added check for first sector start after repartitioning via fdisk. The start sector must be the same before and after the repartitioning (bnc #659865)
* Tue Dec 07 2010 msAATTsuse.de- don\'t overwrite the zypp repo data when in recovery mode (bnc #657922)
* Fri Dec 03 2010 msAATTsuse.de- fixed usbboot linuxrc code which did not write a bootloader setup and also did not install the bootloader (bnc #654617)
* Tue Nov 23 2010 msAATTsuse.de- don\'t preserve rpm database on recovery. This could cause an inconsistent rpm database. Not preserving it could cause an incomplete but consistent database which is better. For reference a copy of the old database is stored in /var/lib/rpm.backup
* Mon Sep 27 2010 msAATTsuse.de- fixed typo in DHCPCD option test
* Mon Sep 27 2010 msAATTsuse.de- added support for partition alignment with fdisk. Thus support for 4k-sector size disks (logical 512 byte) with fdisk was added when using parted the -align option is used though (bnc #637333)
* Thu Sep 16 2010 msAATTsuse.de- removed umount -a call to prevent a read-only remount (bnc #635159)
* Thu Sep 09 2010 msAATTsuse.de- fixed suseSetupProduct looking for a SUSE_ prefix too (bnc #637996)
* Thu Sep 02 2010 msAATTsuse.de- added check for dhcpcd options. On sle10 we don\'t have the options -p or --noipv4ll (bnc #636121)
* Fri Aug 13 2010 msAATTsuse.de- disable filesystem check for kiwi managed partitions by resetting the mount counter using using tune2fs (bnc #627021)
* Tue Aug 10 2010 msAATTsuse.de- added acpi modules to kiwi\'s oemboot initrd. This is required mostly for fan control on laptops and therefore very important for the preload images running on laptops to prevent overheating of the devices (bnc #623607)
* Tue Aug 03 2010 msAATTsuse.de- reverted last change: don\'t call root filesystem check for images (bnc #627021) this causes the fs to remount read-only on newer versions of suse
* Tue Aug 03 2010 msAATTsuse.de- don\'t call root filesystem check for images (bnc #627021)
* Tue Aug 03 2010 msAATTsuse.de- if a fixed xml size was set for a filesystem image we use if even if kiwi\'s calculation says it\'s too small. This allows users to create the image with less or no free space but also could cause the image to fail because of no space left on device. We don\'t use the fixed xml size if it\'s too small for a virtual disk based image though because this could cause the image to be created successfully but then failed on boot which is a bad user experience (bnc #627031)
* Mon Aug 02 2010 msAATTsuse.de- added entire usb stack to initrd for SLE11 oemboot (bnc #627439)
* Fri Jul 30 2010 msAATTsuse.de- fixed build
* Thu Jul 29 2010 msAATTsuse.de- fixed xslt conversion for schema v2.0 used by the yast image creator
* Mon Jul 26 2010 msAATTsuse.de- fixed md5 file creation for clicfs images
* Thu Jul 22 2010 msAATTsuse.de- fixed locale validation and documentation as well as some template examples provided by kiwi. The locale value in kiwi is always a UTF-8 locale therefore it\'s not allowed to add the encoding type to the locale string. We also support the xx_XX locale style only which is now all checked by the schema (bnc #620789)
* Tue Jul 20 2010 msAATTsuse.de- added main::isize function to replace the use of the -s operator. This is done because of SUSE Studio which maps a file to a block special under certain circumstances which causes -s to not work anymore
* Thu Jul 15 2010 msAATTsuse.de- fixed race condition resulting at times in message of not finding the MBR and other times not finding the CD drive.
* Thu Jul 15 2010 msAATTsuse.de- fixed type in getDeployTimeout function
* Tue Jul 13 2010 msAATTsuse.de- remove unneeded initrd.vmx and linux.vmx files _before_ calling mkinitrd. This saves space to not run into a space problem on the boot partition (bnc #621859)
* Fri Jul 09 2010 msAATTsuse.de- added volume label for recovery partition (bnc #618276)
* Thu Jul 08 2010 msAATTsuse.de- moved in-place recovery file creation into suse-dump directly after the install verification (bnc #620777)
* Thu Jul 08 2010 msAATTsuse.de- added oem-inplace-recovery option which allows creation of the recovery tarball at first deployment instead of creating the tarball and store it inside the image (bnc #620777)
* Thu Jul 08 2010 msAATTsuse.de- fixed this path evaluation (bnc #619482)
* Fri Jun 11 2010 ugAATTsuse.de- kiwi overwrites /etc/sysconfig/firstboot (bnc#604705)
* Thu Jun 10 2010 msAATTsuse.de- added oem-dumphalt element which reboots the system after the image was dumped (installed) on the target device. A message appears and the system waits for a key event before reboot
* Mon Jun 07 2010 msAATTsuse.de- setup xencons only for domU setup (bnc #561635)
* Wed Jun 02 2010 msAATTsuse.de- fixed CDMountOption() to use blkid type check (bnc #610649)
* Tue Jun 01 2010 msAATTsuse.de- make sure boot image has enough space (bnc #610596)
* Mon May 31 2010 msAATTsuse.de- don\'t touch modules in updates and weak-updates (bnc #609879)
* Tue May 25 2010 msAATTsuse.de- fixed clicfs resize operation. The command is now based on a 512 byte sector size value instead of a 4k filesystem block size value which might be wrong depending on the size of the filesystem (bnc #604646)
* Fri May 21 2010 ugAATTsuse.de- fixes endless building problem if function suseInsertService() is calling in config.sh and system/chroot contains a broken /etc/init.d/ script. (bnc #605981)
* Tue May 18 2010 msAATTsuse.de- use tar command to copy overlay files which is more error prune than the cp command (bnc #476117)
* Mon May 17 2010 msAATTsuse.de- deactivate splash screen for initial deployment in kiwi OEM boot images (bnc #600710)
* Fri May 14 2010 msAATTsuse.de- added support for displayname for vmx type (bnc #605939)
* Tue May 11 2010 msAATTsuse.de- fixed space problem when setting up boot partition for images which requires a separate boot partition which is the case for filesystems like clicfs. This caused a wrong copy of the initrd and prevents the system from being able to reboot
* Mon May 10 2010 msAATTsuse.de- image size calculation fixes:
* fixed size calculation in KIWIBoot.pm which did not take the journal size into account
* minimum journal size set to 12 MB
* spare space set to 1.5 (former 1.3)
* min inode count is twice times the file count All this is for bug (bnc #587361)
* Fri May 07 2010 msAATTsuse.de- fixed old live iso type (no flags set) to work again. The problem was that we prevent --follow-symlinks in this mode but then we also have to copy the fixed read-write part as file to the iso structure instead of linking it. This fix is related to (bnc #599712)
* Fri May 07 2010 msAATTsuse.de- fixed mkinitrd call, check if the option -B exists and don\'t pass it if it doesn\'t (bnc #603338)
* Wed Apr 28 2010 msAATTsuse.de- don\'t use --follow-symlinks for iso type if old live iso style is in use (bnc #599712)
* Thu Apr 22 2010 msAATTsuse.de- fixed use of type option in mke2fs. The option -t should be used because -T has a different meaning and causes other options to be ignored
* Thu Apr 15 2010 msAATTsuse.de- changed info module to print XML output
* Thu Apr 15 2010 msAATTsuse.de- fixed info module to work with loop media like iso://- added package version and architecture information when requesting the solved packages list via --info
* Mon Apr 12 2010 ugAATTsuse.de- calling mkinitrd in netboot image doesn\'t work if /sbin/update-bootloader is missing (bnc#595073)
* Wed Apr 07 2010 msAATTsuse.de- fixed bootnext boot from harddrive feature (bnc #583212)

* Thu Mar 25 2010 msAATTsuse.de- use bootnext \'boot from hard disk\' for ISO\'s too (bnc #583212)
* Wed Mar 24 2010 msAATTsuse.de- added setterm -powersave off -blank 0 for boot images (bnc #586698)- fixed long startup time because of ldconfig running when KIWILinuxRC is sourced from the shell
* Wed Mar 24 2010 msAATTsuse.de- added bootnext program which implements a small boot loader needed for the \'boot from hard disk\' menu entry on usb media. It basically loads the mbr from the first drive that is not the usb stick. Thanks to Steffen Winterfeldt who implemented this (bnc #583212)- added dialog based OEM install verification UI
* Fri Mar 19 2010 msAATTsuse.de- added \"Select disk for installation\" to getText (bnc #589667)- fixed runInteractive() exit code handling
* Thu Mar 18 2010 msAATTsuse.de- only recommend squashfs don\'t require it (bnc #589400)
* Tue Mar 16 2010 msAATTsuse.de- added Xen dom0 hypervisor check if domain=\"dom0\" is set- fixed Xen dom0 bootloader configuration

* Mon Mar 15 2010 msAATTsuse.de- fixed getSize() function taking journal size into account- fixed getSize() function round values not truncate them
* Fri Mar 12 2010 msAATTsuse.de- fixed quoting in baseUpdateSysConfig (bnc #587132)- turn destdir into absolute path directly after the option parser (bnc #584200)- remove empty dirs in rpmLibs (\"clean\") (bnc #536256)
* Tue Mar 09 2010 adrianAATTsuse.de- support architectures for products, which are not specified in fallback lists
* Mon Mar 08 2010 msAATTsuse.de- fixed missing xen package in oemboot/suse-11.2 boot image description (bnc #561635)
* Fri Mar 05 2010 msAATTsuse.de- fixed root tree creation build inconsistencies because of missing libraries at the beginning of the root tree creation. The first fix for this bug did not work in mixed arch environments (bnc #536256)
* Thu Mar 04 2010 msAATTsuse.de- added better log information about size calculation
* Wed Mar 03 2010 adrianAATTsuse.de- fix multiarch medias, when using metapackages with onlyarch- change string in README.BETA to \"SUMMARY + BETA_VERSION\"
* Wed Mar 03 2010 msAATTsuse.de- added \'boot from harddrive\' as default menu selection for the installation images (CD+USB). Thus remove the request to remove the media after the image dump to the hard drive is complete. (bnc #583212)
* Tue Mar 02 2010 ugAATTsuse.de- fixed a quoting bug (bnc#584651)

* Wed Dec 02 2009 msAATTsuse.de- added support for custom LVM group name. Default is kiwiVG- fixed LVM based recovery workflow. the recovery needs to know about the separate boot partition. Additionally the recovery partition must be a separate partition outside LVM
* Mon Nov 30 2009 msAATTsuse.de- added options --fs-max-mount-count and --fs-check-interval as well as the XML type attribute fsnocheck which deactivates the filesystem check at all.
* Mon Nov 30 2009 msAATTsuse.de- fixed root device setup for xenboot in EC2 (bnc #559143)
* Mon Nov 30 2009 msAATTsuse.de- removed kernel-ec2-extra from xenboot, not needed (bnc #559106)

* Wed Nov 25 2009 msAATTsuse.de- fixed setup of xencons when building Xen domU images (bnc #557791)
* Tue Nov 24 2009 msAATTsuse.de- fixed root tree creation build inconsistencies due to missing libraries at the beginning of the root tree creation. Any glibc linked program uses /etc/nsswitch.conf and from there requires /lib(64)/libnss
* libraries to do user/group to id resolution. If the operation happens chrooted, the libs needs to be there. The fix will install the glibc package which provides these libraries in a $root/baselibs directory first and moves them to $root. After that process the package manager is again called to install the bootstrap listed packages follewed by the rest of the specified packages (bnc #536256)
* Mon Nov 23 2009 msAATTsuse.de- fixed clicfs boot by preventing root filesystem checks via ROOTFS_FSCK=\"0\", also don\'t use run-init for clic (bnc #557661)

* Tue Nov 17 2009 msAATTsuse.de- added LVM feature to allow parts of the filesystem in a separate volume. The setup of volumes happens in the new section
* Mon Nov 16 2009 msAATTsuse.de- don\'t require preinit to call init (bnc #521456)
* Thu Nov 12 2009 msAATTsuse.de- remove pivot root calls (old code) and changed preinit handling to let preinit run like init. If preinit runs the kernel already knows the system image root as / and preinit always ends with exec init (bnc #521456)
* Wed Nov 11 2009 msAATTsuse.de- fixed exit code evaluation in Dialog function. The value of the evaluated exit code was undefined because it depended on which subshell finished first. The solution is to prevent parameter subshells when building the dialog parameterlist (bnc #547864)
* Mon Nov 09 2009 msAATTsuse.de- fixed spec file for s390 architecture
* Fri Nov 06 2009 msAATTsuse.de- fixed sysconfig/kernel setup for old mkinitrd (bnc #547571)
* Fri Nov 06 2009 msAATTsuse.de- fixed xslt processing. The possible change to the XML file is now written to /tmp to avoid writing into read-only filesystem (bnc #552617)
* Wed Nov 04 2009 msAATTsuse.de- added missing usb host controller module (ohci) to all boot image descriptions except vmxboot which doesn\'t need it- added support for timezone in JeOS- changed suseActivateDefaultServices() to activate services only without calling the post scripts of installed RPM\'s

* make sure passwd/shadow and group files will be preserved
* make sure RPM database will be preserved
* Tue Oct 27 2009 msAATTsuse.de- offer only languages for selection which are part of the initrd. The element defines which locales and translations are part of the initrd. If only one language is available no selection dialog will be opened- kiwi-instsource changes done by cooloAATTnovell.com
* fix 32bit debuginfos
* Tue Oct 27 2009 msAATTsuse.de- kiwi-instsource changes done by cooloAATTnovell.com

* Mon Oct 26 2009 msAATTsuse.de- don\'t call ldconfig when loading KIWILinuxRC functions (bnc #549904)- added missing config.sh script to strip down locale information
* Fri Oct 23 2009 msAATTsuse.de- set splash to verbose if there is a systemException (bnc #547821)- check for block device when retrieving MBR ID (bnc #547821)- added DOBACKUP variable to easily switch on/off the backup creation in recovery mode. Currently backup creation is switched on (bnc #546057)
* Thu Oct 22 2009 msAATTsuse.de- recovery mode (bnc #546057):
* throw reboot exception if backup files can\'t be created
* create backup files for files in recovery.tar.gz only
* Wed Oct 21 2009 msAATTsuse.de- use cmp to compare files first before diffing them. Prevent second find call for backup files. This increases the recovery performance in repair mode. Additionally write backup diffs to /tmp/backup (bnc #546057)
* Tue Oct 20 2009 msAATTsuse.de- added support for lang and keytable in cmdline. Support is only available with the gfxboot code from >= 11.2 (bnc #547915)- changed fbiterm return code evaluation. Echo the return code from the last instead of relying to the exit code of the fbiterm terminal (bnc #547864)
* Sun Oct 18 2009 msAATTsuse.de- search .backup files in home and etc only (bnc #546057)
* Fri Oct 16 2009 mbarringerAATTsuse.de- Add .iso filter to the imagewriter
* Wed Oct 14 2009 msAATTsuse.de- don\'t remove libgcc_s from initrd. It\'s required for programs which uses pthread_cancel()
* Wed Oct 14 2009 msAATTsuse.de- prevent automatic CD eject on kiwi install. If the tray is blocked (some servers hide their drives behind doors) the boot CD/DVD with the OEM image ends up back in the machine. Therefore we open a popup window asking to user to remove the install media before continuing
* Mon Oct 12 2009 msAATTsuse.de- fixed error log switch in Echo function- fixed clicfs usage for vmx,oem and usbboot. Needs the same boot partition like the DM squash setup uses- fixed clicfs mount on bootvm creation- added udevPending call in waitForUSBDeviceScan() to make sure the device nodes are created if we leave the function

* Thu Oct 08 2009 msAATTsuse.de- fixed setup of doc exclusion for zypper (bnc #544874)- added boot timer for kiwi boot images like the kernel does
* Wed Oct 07 2009 msAATTsuse.de- improved umount code for auto mount of removable storage devices. The function umountDevice() takes over the task of umounting all filesystems associated with the given device- use searchBIOSBootDevice for usbboot instead of USBStickDevice since we have the unique MBR ID in place this is the better method to search for the boot device
* Tue Oct 06 2009 msAATTsuse.de- fixed race condition in waitForStorageDevice()- create backup files for /etc and /home only in Recovery mode This is done to reduce the runtime the recovery process takes- deactivate automatic filesystem check for clicfs based livesystems
* Tue Oct 06 2009 msAATTsuse.de- Add cancel/reboot menu item in recovery bootloader configuration. This will help avoid accidental recovery invocation, which could be a potential issue. The cancel/reboot item is now the default selection, and the delay is now 30 seconds giving the user more time to contemplate their restoration options (bnc #544420)
* Mon Oct 05 2009 msAATTsuse.de- added and improved official JeOS templates to the kiwi git source tree. The official templates used by the SDK product and the SuSE Studio online service are now provided via the kiwi package kiwi-templates (bnc #521970)- fixed race condition in setupRecoveryArchive() when creating the tar archive- fixed fbiterm support for SLE10- fixed baseStripUnusedLibs

* Wed Sep 30 2009 msAATTsuse.de- oemboot: re-install grub bootloader into partition if the partition contains a bootloader signature already (bnc #543123)- added backup diff in recovery mode. This will add a file~ diff file for each file changed according to the recovery contents.
* Tue Sep 29 2009 msAATTsuse.de- improved restore feature which also restores the filesystem before restoring files (bnc #542648)
* Mon Sep 28 2009 msAATTsuse.de- fixed typos and mistakes in the documentation, Thanks to Robert who found them
* Thu Sep 24 2009 msAATTsuse.de- added language translations (ar,tr,uk) (bnc #539398)- limit language selection to the installed locales (bnc #539398)

* zh_CN.utf8
* zh_TW.utf8
* Wed Sep 23 2009 msAATTsuse.de- added language translations (bnc #539398)

* Thu Sep 17 2009 msAATTsuse.de- added OEM restore mode (bnc #539390)- added pot template for translations (bnc #539398)- added fbiterm to oemboot boot images. This allows to display wide screen characters on the framebuffer console and therefore enabled kiwi\'s dialog windows to be multilingual (bnc #539398)- evaluate kiwikernelmodule variable from cmdline also in modules.order mode where loading is done by udev (bnc #525345)- don\'t remove libblkid1 from initrd (bnc #505580)- remove reserved blocks in any case when mounting clic by calling tune2fs -m 0 (bnc #505580)- preserve ownership if xsltproc changes the xml file- fixed baseStripLocales() function
* Tue Sep 15 2009 msAATTsuse.de- added backup MBR to 0x800 if --grub-chainload is in use also added FDST flag to 0x190 for preload setup. We need to take care for that value if other preloads requires something similar it should be an option (bnc #539505)- added cross-directory-hard-link filter
* Mon Sep 14 2009 msAATTsuse.de- fixed inode calculation, needs integer result- changed to schema version 3.7, add xsl stylesheet which automatically changes to the bool values true/false
* allow ensconce as packagemanager type
* fixed bool content for rpm-check-signatures
* Thu Sep 10 2009 msAATTsuse.de- link files to create live ISO in createImageLiveCD() instead of moving them (bnc #412689)- do kiwi test mounts with readonly option (bnc #538355)- use option -J -f to call genisoimage (bnc #538390)- disabled check for removable flag in USBStickDevice() function (bnc #535113)- allow cmdline line overwrites only if the variable ALLOW_CMDLINE_OVERWRITE=yes is set in config. or config.default. By default no overwrites are allowed which should add an acceptable level of security (bnc #536309)
* Thu Sep 03 2009 msAATTsuse.de- allow NBDROOT to be set via kernel cmdline (bnc #536309)- fixed satplugin getInstallList() function, did not allocate enough space to hold the package size. This causes the buffer overflow inside the binding. Also added the flags - D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fstack-protector to build the same binding binary as if kiwi is build inside the BS. Also fixed the spec file and removed the versioned requires of satsolver-tools (bnc #532894)
* Wed Sep 02 2009 msAATTsuse.de- added encoding information to all templates- added log information about temporary XML changes for all modes of kiwi, removed the used xml output file
* Tue Sep 01 2009 msAATTsuse.de- fixed virtual disk creation with clicfs involved- added option --grub-chainload which allows the virtual disk based images to chainload grub from partition one. This is required for some preload processes (bnc #529850)- changed filesystem detection by using blkid instead of a raw dump + file call. Related to (bnc #529850)- disabled partition table re-write for hybrid ISO\'s also see the comment in KIWIIsoLinux.pm

* boolean attributes
* Fri Aug 21 2009 msAATTsuse.de- remove kernel-.
*-base from all boot image descriptions for suse-11.2. They don\'t exist anymore
* Thu Aug 20 2009 msAATTsuse.de- fixed spec file
* Mon Aug 17 2009 msAATTsuse.de- fixed boot default size setup (bnc #532371)- fixed KIWIBoot::getStorageSize function, use blockdev- fixed dialog input by calling setctsid before dialog- removed duplicate creation of read/write filesystem- changed title for install media to \"Install/Restore ...\"- added support for language selection in displayEULA function. The function now uses the same file names according to the licenses.tgz file. If no language specific license file could be found the function defaults to license.txt and if that file also doesn\'t exist it defaults to EULA.txt (bnc #530497)
* Fri Aug 14 2009 msAATTsuse.de- fixed main::mount() method, setup of umountStack was wrong now using mount destination for umount not source- fixed isohybrid created partition table to be DOS compatible This means the first partition starts at sector 64- update documentation, add information about LVM and repository priorities, differences between smart and zypper

Update schema documentation, update LaTeX documentation- removed pigz from kiwi-tools, it\'s packaged and maintained by Alexander Graf now- run fsck and resize2fs only on first boot of a clic mount- don\'t wait for storage device if it\'s a loop- use resize2fs -M if possible ( >= v1.41 )
* Tue Aug 11 2009 msAATTsuse.de- v3.73- removed -extra kernel packages for 11.2, don\'t exist anymore- added desktop kernel profile too boot images for 11.2- fixed foreign addPackage and addArchive calls, make sure the package/archive is added to the bootstrap section not to the image section as we can\'t guarantee that a type=\"image\" section exists- run tagmedia at last
* Tue Aug 11 2009 msAATTsuse.de- v3.72- fixed getSize function to calculate required inode count for the subsequent mkfs ext2/3/4 call (bnc #528839)
* Fri Aug 07 2009 msAATTsuse.de- v3.71- added ddn function and replace all occurrences of a=$disk\"number\" with a=$(ddn $disk number) (bnc #529580)- added --select packages for the --info option- added checkmedia KIWIIsoLinux constructor parameter
* Thu Aug 06 2009 msAATTsuse.de- v3.70- added dialog based progress information when restoring the recovery archive files (bnc #510041)- fixed evaluation of MKCLICFS_COMPRESSION (bnc #528743)- clear screen after dialog window disappears (bnc #510041)- fixed loop between CDMount and searchBIOSBootDevice happening in oem ISO install mode- fixed HAVE_USB check, usbcore is no longer a module- added edd module to be present in isoboot
* Wed Aug 05 2009 msAATTsuse.de- v3.69- changed oem-repart to allow oem-systemsize even if no home and no swap partition was requested. by default the entire disk space is used but if a oem-systemsize is set this value will be used and therefore allows to have some space left on the disk- fixed loop cleanup
* Mon Aug 03 2009 msAATTsuse.de- v3.68- use dmsetup remove instead of kpartx -d- wait for process to finish when sending int signal (bnc #525986)- added support for hybrid ISO\'s. This feature exists with openSUSE 11.2 or later. In order to use it add the attribute hybrid=\"true\" to your iso type line. If you use the iso on a read/write medium the isoboot code will search for a 0x83 partition used for writing OS data (bnc #496505)
* Fri Jul 31 2009 msAATTsuse.de- v3.67- use blockdev to check partition and disk size (bnc #527016)- use #!/usr/bin/env vmware in .vmx config file

This is not a complete implementation so far, just a first start (bnc #505782)- added basic support for LUKS extension for vmx image type- fixed inclusion of custom tar archives if the image description provides only a bootstrap section like the isoboot data does
* Mon Jun 22 2009 msAATTsuse.de- v3.60- allow inclusion of custom tar archives with new element. This can be used to include custom branding without special branding packages. This can also be used to include any kind of data without the need for a package (bnc #515573)- added virtio kernel modules to boot images (bnc #515543)- improved support for obtaining XML information (bnc #513093)- don\'t remove libx
*, 11.2 hwinfo is linked against libx86emu- don\'t remove mkfs/fsck links, just a cleanup fix- the inode issue comes back to haunt us yet again. The last go around actually made things
*worse
* for things like vmdk that allocate large disks, since 2x the number of files is probably much smaller than the \'automatic\' calculation used for a disk of that size. The attached patch fixes this by removing the - -fs-numinodes option (which is useless, IMHO) and replaces it with --fs-inoderatio. Kiwi will assume 16k for inode ratio if not otherwise specified. We use the ratio to determine the number of inodes, unless it is a smaller value than num_files
*2.
* Fri Jun 19 2009 msAATTsuse.de- v3.59- fixed journal parameter handling in setupEXT2

* Mon Mar 30 2009 msAATTsuse.de- v3.39- added a domain attribute inside the xenconfig section in config.xml to be able to distinguish whether a virtual disk image should be a Xen dom0 host system or a Xen domU guest system. If no domain is set a dom0 image will be created- added xenServer function to check if we run a Xen host or guest system. The bootloader setup is different for dom0 or domU. Adapt setupBootLoader
