|
---|
652 | - if user changes a partition's device, change it in raidtab too
|
---|
653 | - don't extrapolate from /etc/raidtab to /tmp/mountlist; editor does it already
|

|
---|
656 | - put quotes around chmod's parameter

669 | - when user selects RAID level, establish whether said level is available
|
---|
670 |
|
---|
671 | v1.32 (2001-12-09)
|
---|
672 | - if user creates ISO images, the default dest dir is /root/images/mondo now
|
---|
673 | - log_it() makes sure it only writes one \n on the end of each logged line
|
---|
674 | - detects if user is using GRUB/LILO/other; abort if neither LILO nor GRUB

|
---|
683 | - cleaned up compare + restore logging
|
---|
684 | - scratchdir is now [path]/mondo.scratch.$$; was just [path]/mondo.scratch

685 |
|
---|
686 | v1.31 (2001-12-04)
|
---|
687 | - turned on '-Wall' to find cruft; found lots of it; cleaned it up
|
---|
688 | - exclude each device's lost+found directory
|
---|
689 | - mountlist editor now permits advanced editing of RAID devices
|
---|
690 | - fixed a silly bug that was causing freeze-up on <1% of systems; if biggielist was empty then sometimes mondo-archive would freeze when backing up big files (cos there weren't any *g*)
|
---|
691 | - partition and set type in 2-stage process (was 1-stage)
|

|
---|
695 | - '--my-kernel SUCKS' has been replaced with '--my-kernel FAILSAFE'
|
---|
696 | - softlink mondo-restore to /usr/bin/ before calling Mindi, so that Mindi can pick up mondo-restore and its depdendencies easily
|
---|
697 | - copy mondo-restore to Mondo's temp dir before calling Mindi
|
---|
698 | - don't try to compress MP3's, MPG's, WMV's or RA's
|
---|
699 | - cleaned up mondo-newt.c; alphabetized the subroutines; moved some tools from there to mondo-tools.c
|
---|
700 | - mondo-tarme and mondo-restore are now compiled as dynamic executables; I have amended install.sh and mondo-1.31.spec accordingly
|
---|
701 | - now make boot/data floppies at end of backup, not beginning
|
---|
702 | - backup in alphabetical order now, not reverse-alpha
|
---|
703 | - if Compare Mode reports changed files /var/* and /etc/mtab only then tell the user their archives are good despite the differneces
|
---|
704 | - cut back on excessively verbose logging at backup-time
|
---|
705 | - when vacuum-packing a partition, describe it as "(max size)", not "(0 MB)"
|
---|
706 | - if swap is already mounted, don't abort: just say, 'swap already mounted'
|
---|
707 | - when unmounting all devices, don't try to unmount something if it's not even mounted; if it's not mounted, say so but don't try to unmount it: you'll just end up looking very silly :)
|
---|
708 |
|
---|
709 | v1.30 (2001-11-28)
|
---|
710 | - I have reorganized the C code, sorted the subroutines alphabetically, and re-jigged Mondo's installation routines (inc. the RPM spec file) to reflect the changes
|
---|
711 | - check for mondo-restore's presence; if absent then abort & ask user to check to see if Mondo was installed properly
|
---|
712 | - always exclude /var/log/pacct from backup
|
---|
713 | - optimal set size is now 24MB
|
---|

|
---|
715 | - after creating the mountlist, put a copy in Mondo's tmp directory
|
---|
716 | - each ext3 filesystem has a .journal file in its base directory; Mondo will now exclude each of these journal files automatically
|
---|
717 | - use the archived copy of LILO, not the copy from the restore-time ramdisk, to configure the MBR
|
---|
718 | - size_of_file() now returns long long, not long
|
---|
719 | - find mondo-archive and set MONDO_PATH accordingly
|
---|
720 | - scratchdir is /home/mondo.scratch by default
|
---|
721 | - at backup-time, run mondo-restore in test mode to make sure that the executable is sane & will run OK at restore-time
|
---|
722 |
|
---|
723 | v1.19 (2001-11-14)
|
---|
724 | - tested on Linux-Mandrake 8.0 and Red Hat 7.2; backup,wipe,restore went OK
|
---|
725 | - fixed a bug in is_this_device_mounted()
|
---|
726 | - at restore-time, always check for presence of decompressor; abort if notfound
|
---|
727 | - run 'chmod -r 1777 /mnt/RESTORING/tmp' after restoring
|
---|
728 | - fixed bugs in Compare Mode:- - missing else{} - erroneous 'cannot add archive' error; res+=retval should have read retval+=res (Tony Kim)
|
---|
729 | - use 'umount /mnt/cdrom' instead of 'umount /dev/cdrom', to make it compatible with busybox's umount command
|
---|
730 | - fixed bug in mondo-archive which stopped Mondo from pausing to retry if the CD/ISO fails the verification phase
|
---|
731 | - modified compare_all_tarballs() in mondo-restore.c
|
---|
732 | - if running interactively then offer to modify fstab and lilo.conf if user says s/he has modified the mountlist
|
---|
733 | - if mondo-tarme segfaults (as it does, on a _very_ few systems) then Mondo picks up on the fact & reports it
|
---|
734 | - when restoring, create /mnt/RESTORING/tmp before _and_ after restoring data, just in case it is necessary; also set permissions okay
|
---|
735 | - C code is now compiled 'O0' (without optimizations)
|
---|
736 | - each CD's slices were being listed to screen; now, piped to /dev/null
|
---|
737 |
|
---|
738 | v1.18 (2001-10-28)
|
---|
739 | - changed minor error in documentation (mondo-archive's --help output)
|
---|
740 | - improved Mondo's compare phase for tape users
|
---|
741 |
|
---|
742 | v1.17 (2001-10-20)
|
---|
743 | - the deprecated scripts now work with LZO
|
---|
744 | - if mondo-restore cannot mount all devices, it will _unmount_ whatever it did mount, before it returns an error
|
---|
745 | - works with Red Hat 6.2 and 2.2.19 kernel
|
---|
746 | - cosmetic change to output (no more 'burning first/last CD' msgs)
|
---|
747 | - abort if user uses '--use-lzo' but doesn't install LZO(P) first
|
---|
748 | - changed --differential's \( and \) to ( and ) <-- thanks, Michael Moellney)
|
---|
749 | - added Marcus Oberhumer's LZO to Mindi and Mondo; use '--use-lzo' switch to activate this groovy new compression algorithm; it is not as efficient as bzip2 but it is can take up to 50% less time than bzip2 to compress data
|
---|
750 | - incorporated Bruno Cornec's "--cd-recovery" patch
|
---|
751 | - at restore-time, set biggiefiles to +x
|

|
---|
753 | - don't report non-existent differences/errors between archives and filesystem
|
---|
754 | - fixed bug in --differential switch (Michael Moellney)
|
---|
755 | - scripts will no longer function unless gawk and printf are included in Mindi's deplist.txt; add them if you want to use the scripts
|
---|
756 |
|
---|
757 | v1.16 (2001-10-10)
|
---|
758 | - default scratchdir is `pwd`/mondo.scratch.$$ (was mondo.scratch)
|
---|
759 | - when asking user to send me a log file, warn them that the log file may contain information which they do not want me to see but point out that I cannot help much unless I have a copy of their log file
|
---|
760 | - when comparing to or restoring from tape, only update the progree form if/when I've just restored files; otherwise, I would screw up the time est.s
|
---|
761 | - increase afio's block count from 256 to 1024 when restoring from tape
|
---|
762 | - plays nicely with devfs-enabled kernels and distros
|
---|
763 | - when restoring or comparing, track progress by the archive# (N out of M), not by the file#; the former is more reliable and useful than the latter
|
---|
764 | - has been tested successfully with the following distros - Linux-Mandrake 8.1 and its 2.4.8, devfs-enabled stock kernel --- tape / CDR - Red Hat 7.1 and its 2.4.2 stock kernel --- tape / CDR
|
---|
765 | - tape streamers are now supported; use the '--write-tapes <dev> <sizeMB>' switch, e.g. --write-tapes /dev/st0 4096
|
---|
766 | - LVM support is stabilizing
|
---|
767 | - when mounting/unmounting partitions to be restored, don't forget to mount/unmount the swap partitions
|
---|
768 | - when zeroing a drive, use plain old C fopen/fputc/fclose, not 'dd'
|
---|
769 | - after restoring data and running LILO, unmount (as usual) and then run label-partitions-as-necessary, to set the ext2fs LABELs if it is appropriate
|
---|
770 | - fixed bugs in selective restoration scripts and executable
|
---|
771 | - fixed silly bug in hack-lilo; bug was triggered when I moved to Mandrake 8.1; bug caused '/dev/fd0' entry in lilo.conf to become corrupted
|
---|
772 | - if user tries to make a bootable rescue CD with the '--no-bkpath' switch then politely direct them to Mindi :-)
|
---|
773 |
|
---|
774 | v1.15 (2001-09-28)
|
---|
775 | - serialized the call to mondo-filelistchop.c; helps to improve visual feedback (yeah, sounds weird but it's true)
|
---|
776 | - the switches --differential and --exclude-paths should play nicely now
|
---|
777 | - improved the logging a bit, esp. when ejecting or unmounting CD's
|
---|
778 | - improved the visual feedback (specifically, the bar and percentage figures indicating time spent & remaining)
|
---|
779 | - experimental LVM support
|
---|
780 | - fixed 'cannot eject CD' bug, which was caused by busybox's sync & umount
|
---|
781 | - fixed mount-me to allow for mountlists with >1 spaces between columns
|
---|
782 | - fixed documentation; param is --my-kernel <path>, not kernel-path <path>
|
---|
783 | - fail if user runs mondo-archive _from CD_; this is for the user's protection
|
---|
784 | - fixed silly bug in mount-me (a crucial line was disabled)
|
---|
785 | - working on stablilo-me, hack-lilo and hack-fstab to make sure they work with the new, busybox-based Mindi v0.41
|
---|
786 | - Mindi v0.41 is very different from v0.40, internally anyway; so, I had to do a lot of testing to make sure Mondo would play nicely with the new Mindi
|
---|
787 |
|
---|
788 | v1.14 (2001-09-18)
|
---|
789 | - if verify is enabled then verify each CD/ISO after writing it
|
---|
790 | - fixed a quasi-bug in mondo/mount-me; this script used 'sort +1' which is not supported by busybox; I've changed it to just plain old 'sort'
|
---|
791 | - Mondo now tells Mindi whether or not to use its stock kernel
|
---|
792 | - fixed bug in 'biggify-me' script; now, checksums will be verified
|
---|
793 | - fixed bug in checksum comparison code (mondo-restore.c)
|
---|
794 | - reimplemented '--verify' switch; now, user can verify ISO's or CD's against the live filesystem, just for 'belt and braces' emotional security
|
---|
795 | - improved the error-reporting at restore-time (if tarball cannot be accessed)
|
---|
796 | - if user does not specify CD-R(W) drive's speed or device then Mondo will try to locate the drive and will assume 4x speed
|
---|
797 | - user may now type 'edit-mountlist' after booting, if they want to edit the mountlist without risking accidentally wiping their hard disks
|
---|
798 | - fixed a few silly typos in the error messages in mondo-tarme
|
---|
799 | - updated the FAQ
|
---|
800 | - added code to verify ISO images
|
---|
801 | - used 'blank=fast' instead of '-blank fast' for backward-compatibility with older versions of cdrecord
|
---|
802 | - if nonzero value returned by Mondo, then Mondo creates a mondo.err.$$.tgz tarball containing log files & stuff, which it tells the user to e-mail me
|
---|
803 | - when debugging, don't pause before running mondo-tarme; just run it
|
---|
804 | - automatically exclude any file including '/vmmhiber.w9x' in its pathname
|
---|
805 | - added Minix support (although I doubt anyone needs it)
|
---|
806 | - ported mondo-tarme to C - prettier interface at run-time (backup), giving better feedback - obviates a mysterious, intermittent bug in bash itself - shows '% done' when burning CD
|
---|
807 | - afio now has a 12MB FIFO buffer (was 16MB)
|
---|
808 | - cdrecord now has a 20MB FIFO buffer (was 24MB)
|
---|
809 | - wipe [CD]/usr/share/mondo, as well as floppy images, if CD #2 or later
|
---|
810 | - up to 19 CD's may be created now
|
---|
811 | - fixed the 'stderr.txt not found' loop error in mondo-tarme.c
|
---|
812 | - fixed the weird 'segfault on finish() after archiving' bug
|
---|
813 | - modularized the install.sh and mondo-1.14-x.i386.rpm compilation sections
|
---|
814 |
|
---|
815 | v1.13 (2001-09-01)
|
---|
816 | - fixed some compiler warnings in mondo-newt.c; rearranged some code
|
---|
817 | - mondo-tarme now uses -M 16m -t 4k in its call to afio, to improve performance
|
---|
818 | - fixed mondo-restore.c's mkreiserfs call; ditto, prep-me's mkreiserfs call
|
---|
819 | - fixed mondo-restore.c's compare_a_biggiefile() subroutine, which would generate erroneous error messages
|
---|
820 | - fixed mondo-archive.c's restore_a_biggiefile() and restore_all_biggiefiles() subroutines; I can't get them to break but others can, so I've streamlined the code to make them easier to debug and in theory more stable too
|
---|
821 | - fixed 'hack-fstab' to make sure that non-LABELed partitions are correctly moved/changed, etc.
|
---|
822 | - fixed the 'space in big filename' bug (I think)
|
---|
823 | - make Interactive Mode sort the mountlist (by partition size) before creating the dirs and mounting the partitions to them
|
---|
824 | - fixed a slew of bugs related to Red Hat's LABEL= extensions
|
---|
825 | - cleaned up mondo-restore.c and mondo-newt.c; replaced lots of arbitrary limits and lengths with a small number of #define's
|
---|
826 | - added some sample RAID0/1/5 raidtab (config) files to restore-scripts.tgz, which will be restored to the ramdisk's /etc dir when the user boots from the CD; this will only take up an extra 50K or so & will help any user who is moving from non-RAID to RAID
|
---|
827 | - changed FIFO size to 20MB
|
---|
828 | - only use the VFAT kludge on /dev/hda1 or /dev/sda1; otherwise, even if the partition type is VFAT, do a regular mkfs.vfat
|
---|
829 | - if mkfs.vfat doesn't exist, use mkfs.dos
|
---|
830 | - only try to add 'LABEL=' to ext2 and ext3 partitions
|
---|
831 | - moved a bunch of scripts from Mindi's rootfs.tgz to our restore-scripts.tgz
|
---|
832 | - fixed bugs in mondo-restore.c, which would sometimes just sit there when trying to compare or restore big files that were spread across CD's
|
---|
833 | - Interactive Mode goes straight to 'mondo-restore --interactive' now, i.e. the user doesn't have to choose Interactive once at boot and once within mondo-restore
|
---|
834 | - better post-run clean-up
|
---|
835 | - improved mondo-restore.c's error-reporting a little bit
|
---|
836 | - stablilo-me (the script) now supports Red Hat's "LABEL=" extensions to /etc/fstab, via the script, 'label-partitions-as-necessary'
|
---|
837 | - added a user-friendly mountlist editor to mondo-restore.c
|
---|
838 | - added lots of sanity-checking to mountlist editor
|
---|
839 |
|
---|
840 | v1.12 (2001-08-18)
|
---|
841 | - changed cdrecord's FIFO size to 8MB
|
---|
842 | - removed -pad and -sort from the call to mkisofs
|
---|
843 | - amended the .spec file to be saner when building RPM's
|
---|
844 | - archives are named '.afio.bz2' instead of '.tar.bz2'
|
---|
845 | - mondo-archive, mondo-tarme, mondo-restore.c and the DEPRECATED scripts have been amended accordingly
|
---|
846 | - should be able to create up to 20 CD-R's per backup set now
|
---|
847 | - moved a line within prep-me that was in the wrong place (thanks, Fran Boon!)
|
---|
848 | - runs 'df -m' and saves it to a text file 'df.txt' on the CD
|
---|
849 | - added 10-second delay before mondo-restore's Nuke Mode, to let the user abort
|
---|
850 | - really fixed the '/mnt/RESTORING/tmp' permissions bug (thanks, Ang Tan!)
|
---|
851 | - sometimes, bash gets all screwed up & won't let the user type 'continue' when Mondo asks them to; if that happens, Mondo will detect it & use a different kind of mondo-askme; the new mondo-askme will check every 10 minutes for a blank CD; if it's there, then the burn continues
|
---|
852 | - abort if isodir or scratchdir is a softlink
|
---|
853 | - replaced mondo-askme with a good shell script, to work around flaws in bash and/or kernel (don't know which)
|
---|
854 | - added a failsafe kernel to Mindi, which means you don't have to make sure your kernel is suitable for a boot disk; you can just use Mindi's instead
|
---|
855 | - make+chop filelist _after_ calling Mindi
|
---|
856 | - updated the FAQ
|
---|
857 |
|
---|
858 | v1.10 (2001-08-12)
|
---|
859 | - changed cdrecord's FIFO size back to 4MB
|
---|
860 | - added -pad -sort to the call to mkisofs
|
---|
861 | - stop saying, "N files differ so far" after comparing each tarball
|
---|
862 | - updated the FAQ, to remind users that they can boot from floppy images if their kernel does not have the right support of CD-ROM's, filesystems, etc.
|
---|
863 | - erroneous error-reporting by /mondo/biggify-me; fixed (David Granz)
|
---|
864 | - don't estimate the time remaining unless >20 sets processed already
|
---|
865 | - default set size (uncompressed) is now 8MB (was 12MB); when 8MB, seems to run more smoothly & a little quicker, too, at restore-time
|
---|
866 | - chmod 1777 /mnt/RESTORING/tmp after restoring/creating /tmp
|
---|
867 | - dropped mondo-askme.c; using regular 'read' instead
|
---|
868 | - mondo-restore.c uses newt instead of ncurses; much prettier that way
|
---|
869 | - cdrecord now uses a 16MB FIFO buffer (was 8MB)
|
---|
870 | - fixed floating point error in mondo-restore (when showing progress)
|
---|
871 | - when mondo-restore is called without params (e.g. by Interactive Mode), it lets the user choose between nuke, interactive or compare (or abort)
|
---|
872 | - updated the FAQ
|
---|
873 | - working on Cuckoo Mode...
|
---|
874 |
|
---|
875 | v1.09 (2001-08-02)
|
---|
876 | - default compression level is now 3 (was 2)
|
---|
877 | - retry/fail/abort loop bug fixed
|
---|
878 | - calls mindi with "--custom $TMP $scratchdir/images" to force mindi to use my temp dir and to put the images in my 'images' folder
|
---|
879 |
|
---|
880 | v1.08 (2001-07-28)
|
---|
881 | - offer to Retry/Fail/Abort if an error occurs when Mondo tries to burn a CD-R
|
---|
882 | - warn if kernel is 2.4.[0-5] (could have buggy loopfs code)
|
---|
883 | - tested with RAID-5 --- works fine :-)
|
---|
884 |
|
---|
885 | v1.07 (2001-07-22)
|
---|
886 | - fixed cosmetic mistake in an error msg in mondo-tarme ('continue'-related)
|
---|
887 | - hack-fstab now uses "defaults 0 0" instead of "default 1 3" when making a new entry in /etc/fstab
|
---|
888 | - /mondo/restore-me always makes /mnt/RESTORING/tmp; so does mondo-restore.c
|
---|
889 | - cosmetic changes to mondo-restore.c's screen output
|
---|
890 | - RAID-related enhancements to mondo-restore.c - RAID bkp/restore appears to be stable - it is possible to move from non-RAID to RAID by backing up, wiping, creating /etc/raidtab, modifying /tmp/mountlist.txt and then restoring - mondo-restore.c works well - the only weakness is that the kernel's messages are written to the current console, not to a separate console... HELP? :-)
|
---|
891 | - updated README (esp. FAQ) and TODO
|
---|
892 | - tested with Linux 2.4.7; works fine
|
---|
893 | - mondo-1.07.spec and install.sh compile every C program with -lncurses, just in case some programs (besides mondo-restore.c) need the NCURSES library
|
---|
894 | - mondo-restore.c is now compiled statically
|
---|
895 |
|
---|
896 | v1.06 (2001-07-19)
|
---|
897 | - now software-RAID compatible
|
---|
898 | - install.sh only compiles mondo-restore.c once now
|
---|
899 | - if scratchdir or isodir contain more than one path (each), abort
|
---|
900 | - mondo-restore.c creates dummy partitions if the user starts the official etc/fstab table at /dev/hda7 or something; so, partitioning should work, even if the mountlist has some gaps
|
---|
901 | - for each /dev/md* device in the mountlist, run raidstop before mkraid
|
---|
902 |
|
---|
903 | v1.05 (2001-07-16)
|
---|
904 | - patch from DoJ to make install.sh compile with -O2, not -O
|
---|
905 | - cosmetic changes to the biggiefile-slicing code
|
---|
906 | - fixed install.sh
|
---|
907 |
|
---|
908 | v1.04 (2001-07-15)
|
---|
909 | - make-me-bootable only "boot-makes" each partition ONCE now
|
---|
910 | - cosmetic changes to mondo-restore's logfile output
|
---|
911 | - mondo-restore.c makes /mnt/RESTORING/tmp if necessary
|
---|
912 | - should be able to cope with Red Hat's "LABEL=" messages in /etc/fstab
|
---|
913 |
|
---|
914 | v1.03 (2001-07-14)
|
---|
915 | - looks for /etc/lilo.conf; aborts if it cannot locate it
|
---|
916 | - abort if burning CD's & verify level>=2 (must be 1 or 0 if burning CD's)
|
---|
917 | - catch errors in MakeIsoFS, if any
|
---|
918 | - added 'mondo-restore.c'
|
---|
919 | - C program, to replace the old restore scripts
|
---|
920 | - Mindi will incorporate it in the data disks, if it can find Mondo - Mindi will also incorporate the old restore scripts (from Mondo) just in case the new C program doesn't work
|
---|
921 | - calls the script, 'stablilo-me' to run LILO if desired
|
---|
922 | - added 'restore-scripts.tgz', which contains the /mondo scripts that used to live in Mindi; now, Mindi grabs them from here if necessary
|
---|
923 | - cleared up Mode-related scripts & the executable to replace them
|
---|
924 | - if mkisofs fails, ABORT, don't just warn
|
---|
925 | - added '--differential' option, to backup the files changed during the last N days (N specified by user)
|
---|
926 |
|
---|
927 | v1.02 (2001-07-07)
|
---|
928 | - retract the CD tray after asking user to enter 'continue' (PauseAndAskForCDR)
|
---|
929 | - uses C program instead of bash loop for PauseAndAskForCDR; some bash versions go into an infinite loop for no reason; hopefully, outsourcing to C will help
|
---|
930 | - when slicing, indicate progress ("N slices...")
|
---|
931 | - when told to '--burn-cds', Mondo pipes mkisofs's output to cdrecord, instead of saving the ISO file to disk first; this change will save time and space (not in the Star Trek sense, however *smile*)
|
---|
932 | - default set size (native) is now 12MB
|
---|
933 | - copy /usr/share/mondo to correct directory within CD
|
---|
934 | - all calls to gawk have been replaced with calls to awk
|
---|
935 | - RPM and SRPM published
|
---|
936 | - delete $TMP at end; don't just delete $TMP/*
|
---|
937 | - can accept multiple parameters in the '--bkpath' switch
|
---|
938 |
|
---|
939 | v1.00 (2001-07-04)
|
---|
940 | - thanks to recent changes to Mindi, Mondo is now compatible with the filesystem formats JFS, ext3, ReiserFS, XFS and ext2 (if your own kernel is)
|
---|
941 | - CDs [2-N] do not have boot floppy images on them; only CD#1 does (although CDs [2-N] do have the El Torito boot image, just in case...)
|
---|
942 | - modified the --burn-cds switch; now it takes 3rd param, 'cdrw' (optional) to let you wipe and rewrite CDRWs instead of wasting CDRs ;-)
|
---|
943 | - removed that PID thing; doesn't work; please don't run Mondo twice at once :)
|
---|
944 | - removed that "filenames contain '|'" error & associated problems
|
---|
945 | - got rid of 'UNSAFE' warning/shortcut
|
---|
946 | - removed --xerox-dev, --include-tarball, --skip-tildes, --ide-opt, --use-bzip2
|
---|
947 | - mondo-archive doesn't make/hack/edit mountlist anymore; that's Mindi's job
|
---|
948 | - uses Mindi Linux to make boot disks & data disks based on your distro
|
---|
949 | - boot&data stuff goes in $scratchdir/images now
|
---|
950 | - bzip2 is used by default to compress archives
|
---|
951 | - don't make MD5 checksums if verify_level==0
|
---|
952 | - when archiving, make N.tar.bz2 and cklist.txt (tarball+checksums) in parallel
|
---|
953 | - at end of mondo-archive, remove scratchdir and TMP completely IF they were created by Mondo (e.g. /home/mondo.scratch or /home/tmp.mondo.12345)
|
---|
954 | - fill CD/image up to 1MB less than its max size; was being filled up to about 8MB less than its max size, which wasted 8-10MB of storage space per disk
|
---|
955 |
|
---|
956 | v0.99 (2001-03-15)
|
---|
957 | - /proc and /tmp removed --- i.e. added to exclude list :)
|
---|
958 | - Mondo now uses 2.4-series kernel and modules (Bruno Cornec)
|
---|
959 | - minor typos fixed (Bruno Cornec)
|
---|
960 | - older, restore-related fixes merged w/Bruce's work (Maciej Kulasa)
|
---|
961 | - better RPM spec file (Bruno Cornec)
|
---|
962 | - incorporated Mondo v0.977's restore scripts' bugfixes (Maciej Kulasa)
|

964 | v0.981 (2001-03-06)
|
---|
965 | - put 'dd' in coolstuff.tgz (Art Wells)

968 | - INSTALL script renamed to install.sh
|
---|
969 | - tarball cleaned up and re-tarred (Art Wells)
|
---|
970 | - trailing CR/LF's cleaned from scripts (Art Wells)
|
---|
971 | - work is underway to make Mondo compatible with the Linux kernel's 2.4 series
|
---|
972 |
|
---|
973 | v0.977 (2001-02-26)
|
---|
974 | - based on v0.976

977 | - Mondo is being actively developed again (yippee!)
|
---|
978 |
|
---|
979 | v0.976 (2000-09-01)
|
---|
980 | - technical changes - 12MB ramdisk - repackaged: now, Mondo comes in big tarball/RPM with all overhead-files - each Mondo CD has a 15MB administrative overhead; used to be 50-60MB - definitely 386-compatible now (RH 6.2 binaries) - Linux-Mandrake 7.1 (2.2.16) kernel w/ReiserFS & Supermount - modules.conf / conf.modules support (whichever you've got) - user may include their own copies of modules, if Mondo doesn't come with the requisite modules already
|
---|
981 | - extra facilities - ReiserFS support - '--load-modules <foo> <bar> ...' will allow you to force Mondo to load key modules at boot-time, e.g. aic7xxx for SCSI-only users
|
---|
982 | - bugfixes - path-exclusion code (mondo-backup) - bogus 'flaws=1' message has been eradicated - CDRW-finding code is now much better at finding the CDRW correctly - dummy burn mode is working again - fixed security hole (thanks, Matija); now, user will be warned if Mondo is configured to execute /tmp/mondo-tarme - changed lots of 'grep " $string "' to 'grep -w "$string"' (thanks, Matija)
|
---|
983 |
|
---|
984 | v0.975 (2000-07-03)
|
---|
985 | - made mondo-tarme use 'ask-me-a-question' to pause for new, blank CD-Rs
|
---|
986 | - don't deeply search isodir for ISO files to wipe: maxdepth should be 1
|
---|
987 | - 386-compatible kernel and modules (should be, anyway...)
|
---|
988 | - applied Doug Nordwall's calc-disk-size patch to fix SCSI hdd size calc'n bug
|
---|
989 | - applied Michael Ralph Pape's SCSI (2nd floppy) patch
|
---|
990 | - removed devdump from overhead-list
|
---|
991 | - mkisofs no longer called with '-quiet' switch
|
---|
992 | - changed '--burn-cds' format: now it's --burn-cds <speed> (<device>)
|
---|
993 | - added '-L' to LILO's call, so that >8GB hard disks overcome 1024-blk limit
|
---|
994 | - mondo-compare runs check-mountlist-sanity before mounting partitions
|
---|
995 | - ramdisk is now 14MB
|
---|
996 |
|
---|
997 | v0.972 (2000-06-16)
|
---|
998 | - auto-archive, mondo-archive and mondo-tarme updated to make them more friendly towards mult-disk sets
|
---|
999 | - if multiple CDRW drives, user is asked which mondo-archive should use
|
---|
1000 |
|
---|
1001 | v0.971 (2000-06-14)
|
---|
1002 | - auto-archive now passes CD size to mondo-archive
|
---|
1003 | - mondo-tarme, in conjunction with auto-archive, now handles CDRW boot/burn sharing much better than before
|
---|
1004 |
|
---|
1005 | v0.970 (2000-06-10)
|
---|
1006 | - kernel now creates 12MB ramdrive (was 16MB)
|
---|
1007 | - lots of silly bugs & overhead problems fixed; 2nd floppy closer to working
|
---|
1008 | - restore scripts all log to /var/log/mondo-restore.log
|
---|
1009 | - auto-archive:- - offers Low, Medium or High compression - no longer needs a spare hard drive for scratch space; uses loopfs on existing hard drive (if possible) instead - handles weird (multi-CDROM) PCs more gracefully now - handles PCs with CDRW but without CDROM more gracefully now - deletes each ISO after burning it to a CD-R (if it _is_ burning them) - asks if PC is old & crappy; if it is, IDE optimizations are disabled at backup-time and restore-time - lets user use CDRW for booting _and_ burning, thanks to reroute-softlinks
|
---|
1010 | - selective restore is finally fixed
|
---|
1011 | - nicer help screens on boot floppy
|
---|
1012 |
|
---|
1013 | v0.965 (2000-06-03)
|
---|
1014 | - 2MB of space left empty at end of every CD (e.g. 650MB is only 648MB full)
|
---|
1015 | - Suzhe & Lonius's SmartBootManager (sbminst) is used instead of Win98's MBR
|
---|
1016 | - Mondo may now resize Windows-only backups when restoring
|
---|
1017 | - silly bugs in prep-me... fixed
|
---|
1018 |
|
---|
1019 | v0.964 (2000-06-02)
|
---|
1020 | - VFAT partitions >8GB handled OK now
|
---|
1021 | - 2nd floppy (optionally) created for SCSI users <--- not working yet
|
---|
1022 | - better calc-disk-size algorithm (thanks, Doug Nordwall)
|
---|
1023 | - Mondo can now backup and restore Windows-only PCs! :-)
|
---|
1024 | - silly prep-me and format-and-kludge-vfat bugs fixed
|
---|
1025 | - 'resize hack' retitled as 'vacuum-pack'
|
---|
1026 |

|
---|
1028 | - ISO images are no longer padded
|

1029 | - all currently-loaded modules are backed up to custom hboot.img & installed at restore-time before CD is accessed
|
---|
1030 | - '--burn-cd <speed>' switch added
|
---|
1031 | - '--no-opt' switch added; use it in the call to mondo-archive if you don't want IDE optimization when restoring
|
---|
1032 | - lots of work done on auto-archive
|
---|
1033 | - mondo-extras-1.5 created; excludes mondo-zfile but includes hlib.tar.bz2
|
---|
1034 | - boot floppy image now includes kernel w/lots of SCSI stuff
|
---|
1035 | - slice* deleted (WipeArchives); was 'slices*' (bug!)
|
---|
1036 | - restore scripts all use 'lastbit-me' to find the 'X' part of '/dev/X' device; this will make it easier to port Mondo to kernel 2.4.x
|
---|
1037 | - I cannot make SCSI-based CDROMs boot from Mondo CDs properly... but SCSI hard drives and ZIP drives should be handled ok from now on
|
---|
1038 | - with a little coaxing, Mondo will backup Windows-only PCs (as well as Lin/Win and Linux-only PCs)
|
---|
1039 |
|
---|
1040 | v0.962 (2000-05-25)
|
---|
1041 | - silly bug in mondo-checksum fixed
|
---|
1042 | - stale tmp dirs are now definitely deleted (bug fixed)

|
---|
1047 | - mondo-archive doesn't try to delete loopfs unless it exists
|
---|
1048 | - mondo-restore's "hack-softlinks" - silly bug ($1/ missing) fixed
|
---|
1049 | - boot floppy image now includes mkdir and rmdir
|
---|
1050 | - user may specify temp directory using '--tempdir <path>'
|
---|
1051 | - mondo-archive now includes a copy of 'buffer' for future use
|
---|
1052 | - Mondo will now archive and restore Linux AND LinWin systems ok. W00H00! :-)
|
---|
1053 |
|
---|
1054 | v0.961 (2000-05-23)
|
---|
1055 | - mondo-checksum ignores files <2k in length
|
---|
1056 | - default compression level is 4
|
---|
1057 | - default verify level is 2
|
---|
1058 | - files <3k in size aren't compressed
|
---|
1059 | - filelist no longer includes bashbug, dosfsck or dir
|
---|
1060 | - bs-me is disabled in mondo-restore
|
---|
1061 | - fixed bug in 'hack-fstab' which stopped processing fstab if blank line found
|
---|
1062 |
|
---|
1063 | v0.960 (2000-05-22)
|
---|
1064 | - mondo-vfat-1.0 package released, to provide kludging for VFAT bootables
|
---|
1065 | - logfile now saved at /var/log/mondo-archive.log (not `pwd`/mondo-archive.log)
|
---|
1066 | - pid registered/checked _after_ command line processed... so you can do --help without being shouted at ;)
|
---|
1067 | - restore-me broken into 2 scripts: untar-me and biggify-me
|
---|
1068 | - restore-subroutine-me now renamed untar-subroutine-me
|
---|
1069 | - bzip2 decompression should work again ;) ... a missing '-Z' was added to the afio call, and the usr/lib/libbz* libraries are now included on CD ISOs
|
---|
1070 | - fixed hack-lilo to ignore blank lines
|
---|
1071 | - really ugly boot kludge has been implemented, using embleer files to make newly-formatted VFAT partitions bootable
|
---|
