[Clonezilla-release] Stable Clonezilla live (2.0.1-5) Released

[Steven S. <st...@nc...>]

This release of Clonezilla live (2.0.1-5) includes minor enhancements 
and bug fixes.
*** ENHANCEMENTS and CHANGES ***
     * The underlying GNU/Linux operating system was upgraded. This 
release is based on the Debian Sid repository (as of 2012/Nov/26).
     * Linux kernel was updated to 3.2.32-1.
     * Package drbl was updated to 2.1.34-drbl1, and clonezilla was 
updated to 3.1.22-drbl1. The new paths for the files in these two 
packages are in /usr/sbin, /usr/bin, /usr/share/drbl/sbin, and 
/usr/share/drbl/bin. No more under /opt/drbl/. Hence, the new pre-run 
and post-run paths are /usr/share/drbl/prerun/ocs/ and 
/usr/share/drbl/postrun/ocs/, respectively.
     * A KMS mode was added in the boot menu.
     * Partclone was updated to 0.2.56.
     * Packages tcplay and mpg123 were added.
     * Boot parameter "ocs_lang" is now replaced by "locales" from 
live-config.
     * Boot parameter "ocs_live_keymap" is now replaced by 
"keyboard-layouts" from live-config.
     * Boot parameters "echo_ocs_prerun" and "echo_ocs_postrun" were 
added. This can be used to disable echoing the ocs_prerun and 
ocs_postrun command.
     * An option to use "autohostname" to create the image name was 
added. Thanks to tererecool (David Bauer) for this idea.
     * The command to save an image will be saved in the image dir as 
file Info-saved-by-cmd.txt.
     * Another partition table file, e.g. sda-pt.parted.compact, will be 
saved in image dir when saving an image. It's easier for human to read.
     * //NOTE// From Clonezilla live 1.2.6-24, if you manage the boot 
parameters by yourself, you have to put the extra boot parameter 
"config" or "live-config" to make live-config to work.
     * //NOTE// From Clonezilla live 1.2.6-24, due to the change in 
Live-boot, the boot parameter to assign static IP address has been 
changed. The new format is:
       ip=**[DEVICE]:[CLIENT_IP]:[NETMASK]:[GATEWAY_IP]:[NAMESERVER] 
[,[DEVICE]:[CLIENT_IP]:[NETMASK]:[GATEWAY_IP]:[NAMESERVER]]***::
       e.g.
       ip=eth0:192.168.100.1:255.255.255.0:192.168.100.254:8.8.8.8,eth1:
       192.168.101.1:255.255.255.0::

*** BUG FIXES ***
     * A better mechanism was implemented to decide the restored OS is 
using grub 1 or 2. Thanks to Robert Weir for reporting this issue on 
Fedora 17 restoring.
     * The *.mod files for grub2 are not fixed in the path /boot/grub/. 
It could be in /boot/grub/i386-pc/. Function install_grub_hd failed in 
this case.
     * Program ocs-lvm2-stop did not work on Ubuntu Linux due to the 
udevd rules 85-lvm2.rules from Ubuntu.
     * The function install_grub_hd in ocs-live-dev should skip checking 
the boot loader on the USB flash drive, because it might be new, empty one.
     * To avoid the KMS and vmwgfx conflict issue 
(http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=686939), some 
blacklist boot parameters were added.
     * The VOL_LIMIT for splitting image file could not larger than
       20000000000000. Ref: 
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=671650&aid=3567350&group_id=115473
     * Saving mode should enable ncurse interface by default, too. 
Otherwise it's confusing.
     * Program run-parts is confusing, there now we use drbl-run-parts.
     * The description using space key to mark the selection for disk to 
disk clone is not required. Thanks to sabrehagen 
(https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=671650&aid=3552271&group_id=115473).
