$Id: CHANGES,v 1.14 2001/05/01 22:16:30 hpa Exp $ NOTE: Version numbers differing only in a final letter (e.g. 1.2.1a versus 1.2.1) matter only if you intend to make your own modified versions of SuperRescue using the included build scripts; such version increments do not matter if you use the disk as-is. Furthermore, for such changes you can replace only the "buildtree" tarball instead of downloading the entire ISO image. Changes from 1.3.1 to 1.3.1a ---------------------------- - Add missing rm -rf usr/isolinux to the build script. Changes from 1.3.0 to 1.3.1 --------------------------- - Add a kernel patch that makes freeing the initrd work correctly. This should significantly improve performance on machines near the minimum RAM size. - Add a few more filesystem modules. Changes from 1.2.3 to 1.3.0 --------------------------- - Update to kernel 2.4.3, and include updates from RedHat as of 2001-04-13. Additionally, update/add a few packages, especially OpenSSH and OpenSSL. New build procedure based on ISOLINUX. The new kernel should also result in better PCMCIA support. - Use new kernel features (ramfs, pivot_root) to greatly reduce the minimal RAM size required to run SuperRescue. New minimum is about 24 MB. Changes from 1.2.2 to 1.2.3 --------------------------- - Additional bug fixes for booting from SCSI CD-ROM. Changes from 1.2.1b to 1.2.2 ---------------------------- - (Hopefully) fix booting from a SCSI CD-ROM, at least as long as the SCSI controller is one of the ones compiled into the default kernel and doesn't require a module (installing modules automatically is something for a future version.) The drivers compiled into the default kernel are Adaptec, Buslogic/Mylex, NCR5380 and NCR/SymBIOS 53c8xx. Changes from 1.2.1a to 1.2.1b ----------------------------- - Build a separate tarball with the build scripts; also, for the tarball on the CD-ROM, include the version number with a symlink for the generic name. - Changes to support (and require!!) mkisofs 1.13. This produces a filesystem that is a bit nicer, and using the "sort" option, perhaps a little more tolerant of El Torito BIOS bugs. Changes from 1.2.1 to 1.2.1a ---------------------------- - Bugfixes to the rebuild scripts. Changes from 1.2 to 1.2.1 ------------------------- - Included the scripts required to rebuild the disk image from scratch.
