The Debian Installer team[1] is pleased to announce the fourth release
candidate of the installer for Debian 12 "Bookworm".
Improvements in this release
============================
* cdebconf:
- Improve banner display when the installer logo's width is smaller
than the GTK window's width (#745359): instead of scaling, expand
the banner on the side(s) specified in the theme (#1036321).
* debian-installer:
- netboot/x86: fix colors in GRUB submenus (#1036771).
- netboot/x86: add /splash.png symlink to make GRUB load the splash
screen (#1036215).
* grub2:
- When also installing to the removable media path, include the
relevant mokmanager binary (#1034409).
- Allow multiple initrd parameters (#838177, #820838).
* partman-auto-raid:
- Add support for LVM-on-LUKS-on-RAID, via a new "crypto-lvm"
keyword, similar to the existing "lvm" (#1036347).
* partman-basicfilesystems:
- Install dosfstools if we have a FAT ESP.
* rootskel-gtk:
- Add banner metadata (#745359, #1036321).
- Align dark banner colors with dark/high-contrast theme.
- Fix document viewport, avoiding 1-pixel offsets.
Hardware support changes
========================
* finish-install:
- Add bochs/cirrus to the initramfs if detected (#1036788).
