New Skolelinux CD image release candidate 1 (rc1)



I've made a new Skolelinux CD image, release candidate 1.  It is
available from <URL:ftp://developer.skolelinux.no/skolelinux-cd/>.
The image size is 649 MiB.

Major changes since the previous image:

  * In first stage installer (debian-installer):
      + Improved HW detection support.
      + Updated translations.
      + Removed manual partition to make sure the automatic partition
        is selected automatically in the normal case. This should be
        reverted when the selectoin bug is fixed.
      + We probably forgot to list something.
  * Changed user admin module to webmin-ldap-user-simple. (Andreas)
  * Changed webmin authentication method to PAM, removing the need for a
    separate user database in webmin. (Andreas/Petter) (Fixes bug #683)
  * Upgraded installed kernel to 2.4.26-1-386. (Werner)
  * Upgraded to XFree86 4.2.1-3.bunk.10 to get support for more video
    cards.  (Werner)
  * Dropped extra packages for XFree86 3.3.6, assuming that most cards
    are now supported in XFree86 4.2. (Petter)
  * Added rosegarden and sql-ledger to the CD. Not installed by
    default yet.  (Petter/Finn-Arne)
  * Added first draft on a documentation package. (Mari)
  * Security updates to: cvs (to 1.11.1p1debian-9woody2/ DSA-486-1),
    perl (to 5.6.1-8.7 / DSA-431), tcpdump (to 3.6.2-2.8 / DSA-478)
  * We probably forgot to list something.

I have testet that the CD is bootable and installable using VMWare.

A list of known bugs is available from <URL:http://bugs.skolelinux.no/>.

The following configuration for server and LTSP-server should work out
of the box:

 - Apache
 - CUPS
 - DHCP
 - DNS
 - LDAP
 - LTSP
 - NFS
 - NTP
 - SMTP/IMAP over SSL
 - SSH
 - Squid
 - Webmin
 - User administration
 - Backup
 - Host and service monitoring.

The following services do not work as they should:

 - SMB (lack LDAP authentication)
 - cfengine (need host netgroups)
 - SQL-server (unable to install automatically)

Test it and find out more. :-)

The disk usage for the different profiles (in KiB) is as follows.
Please take the numbers with a small grain of salt.

All in all there are 953 packages on the CD.  Since the last time
there has been 16 packages added, 145 packages changed/upgraded and 31
packages removed.  The details are at the end of this email, and
updated information is available from
<URL:http://developer.skolelinux.no/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/skolelinux/src/task-skolelinux/pkgdeblist.txt>.

Several packages are dropped either from our profiles, or from the CD.
These are listed on
<URL:http://developer.skolelinux.no/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/~checkout~/skolelinux/src/task-skolelinux/lists/task-skolelinux-dropped.txt>.

Some of the packages are missing on the CD, because they are missing
both in Woody and in our APT-source:

Some of the packages are missing for other reasons:

  iproute (v20010824-8 available)
  iptables (v1.2.6a-5 available)
  shorewall (v1.2.12-2 available)

Several packages did not fit on the CD.  These packages are listed as
extra packages, but did not fit:

I'm skipping the changelog since last release to keep this email at a
reasonable size.
