installation-guide (20150528ubuntu1) xenial; urgency=low
* Merge from Debian unstable; LP: #887663.
- fixes a wrong init script name for dhcpd. LP: #666726.
- fixes a typo in the table of memory requirements. LP: #1030336.
- drops obsolete mention of 2.6 kernels in keyboard preseeding.
LP: #1000354.
- fixes wrong make-kpkg example invocation. LP: #1019906.
- fixes stale link to debian-installer subversion repo. LP: #1233732.
* Remaining changes:
- Extensive (although possibly incomplete) Ubuntu branding, adjustments
for our mirror layout, etc.
- Build only English (for now, until we figure out how to avoid trashing
translations quite so badly with Ubuntu branding etc.).
- Drop build-dependency on poxml for now, since we don't ship any
translations.
- Add "Ubuntu and Debian" and "What is Ubuntu?" section, text borrowed
from the Ubuntu web site. Disable the "What is Debian GNU/Linux?"
section.
- Build only Ubuntu architectures (amd64, arm64, armhf, i386, powerpc,
ppc64el, s390x).
- Direct installation reports to ubuntu-users for now.
- Document mounting /sys in various places.
- Update chroot-install guide for language packs; add
a bit more advice about installing grub.
- Document our root password and sudo arrangements.
- Adjust various memory and disk space requirements. Talk about the
default Ubuntu desktop and Ubuntu tasks rather than Debian tasks.
- Document network-console/authorized_keys_url feature
- Document mirror/udeb/components.
- Document scheme for preseeding the use of CC.archive.ubuntu.com
mirrors.
- Document how to override the weak password check.
- Document preseeding user-setup's home directory encryption facility.
- Document new simplified partman preseeding.
- Document partman-auto-lvm/guided_size.
- Document partman/default_filesystem.
- Document live-installer/net-image.
- Improve examples of tasksel/first preseeding to avoid mentioning
standard, which is installed by default.
- Document pkgsel/update-policy.
- Document pkgsel/updatedb.
- Document apt-setup/security_path.
- Disable documentation of win32-loader.
- Document netboot-style USB images. Still mention the hd-media images,
but they're downplayed since many USB sticks are too small for a full
Ubuntu ISO image.
- Retain delta for commented-out OldWorld Mac support because it's easier
than reverting it; but at this point OldWorld Macs will almost
certainly never be supported in Ubuntu or Debian.
- Remove comments about automatic installation methods that have been
removed from Ubuntu.
- Document Kickstart installations.
- Unset supports-floppy-boot for all our architectures.
- Don't recommend passing http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu to
debootstrap.
- Document that i586 processors and i686 without cmov are no longer
supported.
* Dropped changes, included in Debian:
- Update keyboard preseeding documentation for console-setup.
- Replace 'netcfg/disable_dhcp' with 'netcfg/disable_autoconfig'
throughout.
- Add a few more supports-floppy-boot and bootable-usb conditionals.
- Remove some 2.6 kernel specifics.
- Remove documentation of
base-installer/kernel/linux/initramfs-generators
- Update url-us-keymap
- Replace 'console-setup' with 'keyboard-config' in preseeding.
* Dropped changes:
- Rename armel manual to armhf: there are both armel and armhf manuals
in Debian, and the armel one contains information only relevant for
non-armhf systems.
- Documentation of X preseeding: hardware should now be automatically
detected, and xserver-xorg no longer uses debconf. LP: #881984.
- Don't suppress mention of using a CD as an archive even if the
system doesn't boot from CD; this is very relevant for s390x, for
instance.
- Drop comment about Ubuntu desktop CDs, since this manual is not
applicable to non-di images at all and we no longer have an Ubuntu
alternate CD.
- Drop unnecessary delta to debian/rules which causes e.g. preseed
file to show the wrong target release name. LP: #1316242.
* Translate '&debian;' and '&debian-gnu;' xml entities to 'Ubuntu', allowing
us to significantly reduce the branding delta.
* Bump names for xenial.
* Bump kernelversion to 4.3.
* Disable all the documentation of loadlin, not just half of it.
* Never enable the "new-arch" status for any Ubuntu archs.
* Set the archive url dynamically based on the architecture, to cover
ports.u.c vs. archive.u.c. LP: #1391019.
* Revert installation guide changes that say to use /etc/adjtime instead of
/etc/default/rcS; /etc/adjtime is evilbadwrong and not used in Ubuntu.
* Don't include information about tasks that Ubuntu doesn't have.

Changes:
installation-guide (20150528ubuntu1) xenial; urgency=low
.
* Merge from Debian unstable; LP: #887663.
- fixes a wrong init script name for dhcpd. LP: #666726.
- fixes a typo in the table of memory requirements. LP: #1030336.
- drops obsolete mention of 2.6 kernels in keyboard preseeding.
LP: #1000354.
- fixes wrong make-kpkg example invocation. LP: #1019906.
- fixes stale link to debian-installer subversion repo. LP: #1233732.
* Remaining changes:
- Extensive (although possibly incomplete) Ubuntu branding, adjustments
for our mirror layout, etc.
- Build only English (for now, until we figure out how to avoid trashing
translations quite so badly with Ubuntu branding etc.).
- Drop build-dependency on poxml for now, since we don't ship any
translations.
- Add "Ubuntu and Debian" and "What is Ubuntu?" section, text borrowed
from the Ubuntu web site. Disable the "What is Debian GNU/Linux?"
section.
- Build only Ubuntu architectures (amd64, arm64, armhf, i386, powerpc,
ppc64el, s390x).
- Direct installation reports to ubuntu-users for now.
- Document mounting /sys in various places.
- Update chroot-install guide for language packs; add
a bit more advice about installing grub.
- Document our root password and sudo arrangements.
- Adjust various memory and disk space requirements. Talk about the
default Ubuntu desktop and Ubuntu tasks rather than Debian tasks.
- Document network-console/authorized_keys_url feature
- Document mirror/udeb/components.
- Document scheme for preseeding the use of CC.archive.ubuntu.com
mirrors.
- Document how to override the weak password check.
- Document preseeding user-setup's home directory encryption facility.
- Document new simplified partman preseeding.
- Document partman-auto-lvm/guided_size.
- Document partman/default_filesystem.
- Document live-installer/net-image.
- Improve examples of tasksel/first preseeding to avoid mentioning
standard, which is installed by default.
- Document pkgsel/update-policy.
- Document pkgsel/updatedb.
- Document apt-setup/security_path.
- Disable documentation of win32-loader.
- Document netboot-style USB images. Still mention the hd-media images,
but they're downplayed since many USB sticks are too small for a full
Ubuntu ISO image.
- Retain delta for commented-out OldWorld Mac support because it's easier
than reverting it; but at this point OldWorld Macs will almost
certainly never be supported in Ubuntu or Debian.
- Remove comments about automatic installation methods that have been
removed from Ubuntu.
- Document Kickstart installations.
- Unset supports-floppy-boot for all our architectures.
- Don't recommend passing http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu to
debootstrap.
- Document that i586 processors and i686 without cmov are no longer
supported.
* Dropped changes, included in Debian:
- Update keyboard preseeding documentation for console-setup.
- Replace 'netcfg/disable_dhcp' with 'netcfg/disable_autoconfig'
throughout.
- Add a few more supports-floppy-boot and bootable-usb conditionals.
- Remove some 2.6 kernel specifics.
- Remove documentation of
base-installer/kernel/linux/initramfs-generators
- Update url-us-keymap
- Replace 'console-setup' with 'keyboard-config' in preseeding.
* Dropped changes:
- Rename armel manual to armhf: there are both armel and armhf manuals
in Debian, and the armel one contains information only relevant for
non-armhf systems.
- Documentation of X preseeding: hardware should now be automatically
detected, and xserver-xorg no longer uses debconf. LP: #881984.
- Don't suppress mention of using a CD as an archive even if the
system doesn't boot from CD; this is very relevant for s390x, for
instance.
- Drop comment about Ubuntu desktop CDs, since this manual is not
applicable to non-di images at all and we no longer have an Ubuntu
alternate CD.
- Drop unnecessary delta to debian/rules which causes e.g. preseed
file to show the wrong target release name. LP: #1316242.
* Translate '&debian;' and '&debian-gnu;' xml entities to 'Ubuntu', allowing
us to significantly reduce the branding delta.
* Bump names for xenial.
* Bump kernelversion to 4.3.
* Disable all the documentation of loadlin, not just half of it.
* Never enable the "new-arch" status for any Ubuntu archs.
* Set the archive url dynamically based on the architecture, to cover
ports.u.c vs. archive.u.c. LP: #1391019.
* Revert installation guide changes that say to use /etc/adjtime instead of
/etc/default/rcS; /etc/adjtime is evilbadwrong and not used in Ubuntu.
* Don't include information about tasks that Ubuntu doesn't have.

[ Christian Perrier ]
* Remove obsolete reference to the replicator package
Closes: #597983
.
[ Maximilian Attems ]
* Remove obsolete reference to kernel-img.conf
.
[ Colin Watson ]
* Fix "/etc/init.d/dhcpd3-server" typo (should be

[ Joey Hess ]
* Updated USB stick documentation to describe the much simpler, more
flexible, and likely more robust use of isohybrid images. All i386
and amd64 ISO images are now isohybrid.
* Remove documentation of no longer supported
grub-installer/grub2_instead_of_grub_legacy preseed. Closes: #610739
