Recent revisions

49. By Colin Watson

Enable backup while running iscsi_login, to match behaviour when running
iscsi_login from partman.

48. By Colin Watson

Update Ubuntu-specific translations from Launchpad.

47. By Colin Watson

Don't try to install libc6-vfp any more; it hasn't been built since
eglibc 2.10.1-0ubuntu10 in karmic.

46. By Colin Watson

* Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
  - Remove FireWire Ethernet support.
  - Register lp module on i386 and amd64.
  - Exit zero if you continue all the way through ethdetect's errors about
    having no network interfaces.
  - Register rtc module on amd64.
  - Drop priorities of a couple of ethdetect questions to medium.
  - Install mouseemu on systems likely to have single-button mice (i.e.
    non-desktop Macs), but not powerpc64 since that causes an oops in the
    input layer.
  - On powerpc/ps3 systems, load ps3rom, ps3disk, and ps3_gelic, and add
    snd_ps3 to /etc/modules.
  - Install elfspe2 on Cell (powerpc/ps3 and powerpc/cell) platforms.
  - disk-detect.sh: Do not check the kernel command line for any option
    to enable dmraid support. If functional dmraid arrays are found, the
    user will be asked if they wish to activate them.
  - Make dmraid logging a bit neater.
  - 'dmraid -c -s' changed its output format; cope with both old and new.
  - Reinstate snd-powermac for i2s-a devices since apparently the lock-up
    has been fixed.
  - Remove dm-emc from the multipath modules, since it's gone since
    2.6.27.
  - Improve checks for dm-* drivers being present to avoid relying on them
    being built as modules.
  - Install libc6-vfp on armel systems where the vfp word is found in the
    /proc/cpuinfo features.
  - Offer iSCSI targets for preseeding if partman-iscsi is available and
    no disk devices are found.
  - Stop installing acpi, acpid, and acpi-support-base if acpi is
    available.
  - Add support for Dell Driver Injection disk v1, an integrated flash
    media based solution for adding in drivers after OS launches.

45. By Colin Watson

Fix db_fget arguments when checking for partman-iscsi preseeding.

44. By Colin Watson

[ Colin Watson ]
* Drop disk-detect/iscsi/enable template, which is no longer used.
* Don't install mouseemu on Intel Mac desktops (LP: #251830).

[ Mario Limonciello ]
* Add support for Dell Driver Injection disk v1, an integrated flash media based
  solution for adding in drivers after OS launches. This feature will be on
  upcoming Dell servers. (LP: #341526)

43. By Colin Watson

* Support preseeding of partman-iscsi/login/address.
* Don't call 'anna-install open-iscsi-udeb' if the iSCSI login choice is
  selected; partman-iscsi must already be installed for this choice to be
  offered, and it depends on open-iscsi-udeb already.

42. By Colin Watson

* Default iSCSI configuration to true, and stop installing open-iscsi-udeb
  unconditionally here; partman-iscsi will take care of that. Instead,
  offer iSCSI targets as a choice if partman-iscsi is available and no
  disk devices are found, and implement compatibility with old-style
  open-iscsi/targets preseeding (LP: #237460).
* Stop installing acpi, acpid, and acpi-support-base if acpi is available.
  Most of these are going away and desktop facilities should take care of
  whatever's left.

    snd_ps3 to /etc/modules.
  - Install elfspe2 on Cell (powerpc/ps3 and powerpc/cell) platforms.
  - Add hooks for iSCSI support.
  - disk-detect.sh: Do not check the kernel command line for any option
    to enable dmraid support. If functional dmraid arrays are found, the
    user will be asked if they wish to activate them.

* Don't use 'grep -w' in VFP-detection code, since busybox doesn't
  implement it (LP: #359915).

/proc/cpuinfo features.
