Changes:
boot-floppies (3.0.23) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Falk Hueffner:
- Alpha: Use newer MILO images for pc164, ruffian and xlt. The older ones
didn't work at all, so this shouldn't break anything
- add myself as Alpha maintainer, remove inactive maintainers
* Eduard Bloch:
- German dbootstrap translation updates
- documented keytimer option, USB keyboard instructions
- changed the f6 boot message to show the keytimer option
- changed f5 to show noapic option, and more general comment about modules
- German release notes updated
- changed SUITE (dbootstrap_settings) to woody
- reviewed and repaired the initrd creating code (broken linuxrc handling,
broken size calculation, broken real-root calculation, nowadays useless
anyways); closes: #143046, #105621
- modified udbootstrap to export TERM=vt102 where needed,
closes: #142357, #142305
- rewrote the other-boot-partitions-show dialog to look less confusing,
closes: #140980 since we do not add new features
- removed -q option from mkreiserfs call (obsolete)
- made the mount routine fall back on reiserfs/ext2/3 check when XFS mount
failed, closes: #142481
- support for i2o-scsi devices, still needing a newer/patched makedev
- changed german string in i18n chooser, request from Thomas Bliesener
* Guido Guenther
- add myself to the maintainers file for MIPS
- remove addinitrd source from boot-floppies - we have a mips-utils
package for that now
- remove last references to mips-specials
- mips: make sure we pick the correct linux.bin in release.sh
- mips: someone changed linux to linux.bin in run_dvhtool; this "breaks"
hd booting on mips, change reverted
* Adam Di Carlo
- docs: talk about language chooser step for those arches which have
it; correct some problems in "supports dhcp" list; many SGML fixups
in the translated manuals; move URLS into language-independant
urls.ent; fix some URLS thanks to notification from James A. Treacy
- Maintainers: small updates
- alpha: build fix, the whole linux -> linux.bin thing
- remove stale release notes from the sources, they were so old as to
be useless anyhow; removed were de hr ja pl ru sk

better

- stamp out linux*.bin from .changes file on arm
- docs: update package counts in defaults.ent
* Ethan Benson

* Stefan Gybas
- s390: remove unneeded linux*.bin files in release directory
- s390 documentation updates
* Adam C Powell: belated credit for arm boot instructions
* David Kimdon
- add some more menuBox TRANS hints, changed suggested length
from ~70 to ~63 characters so boxes don't extend off the screen
* Josip Rodin: changes to help with the production of web site docs
* Matt Zimmerman
- note use of rarpd for 2.4 kernels rather than kernel module;
closes: #141102
- correct debootstrap log path in S/390 issue; closes: #144566
* Ben Collins
- debootstrap msg was wrong -- SILO can and always has handled ext3
- use piggyback for sparc tftp images instead of TILO
* Erik Andersen: dbootstrap prevents kernel msgs from showing on console
* Richard Hirst
- change PA/RISC to PA-RISC; closes: #143991
