With thanks to Samuel Thibault. | |||
2010-03-27 | partman now asks a slightly different (and less scary) confirmation | Colin Watson | |

2010-03-10 | Using D-I: add subsection intruducing supported partitioning options | Frans Pop | |
It includes a list of supported file systems which is generally useful, but also more important now that reiserfs support is optional. | |||
2010-02-24 | Drop requirement for TFTP server support of 'tsize' option for PXE booting | Frans Pop | |

2010-02-22 | Update information on setting up a TFTP server | Frans Pop | |

2009-12-27 | Update the appendix on chroot installs to not recommend mapping 127.0.0.1 | Steve Langasek | |

2009-12-01 | Reword section on installer's support of wireless. | Joey Hess | |
Be more specific about what is not supported (notably better enctyption than WEP), and link to firmware loading documentation. In particular avoid the "still under development", which has a typical end-user stigma of "can not possibly work". | |||
2009-11-20 | Update for changes in localechooser 2.18 | Frans Pop | |
- Selecting a different country is now always possible at high priority. - Selection of a preferred locale if a combination of language and country was selected for which no locale exists. - Various other minor improvements. | |||

2009-11-06 | x86 USB boot: mini.iso is not usable as ISO image for hd-media | Frans Pop | |
Make this more explicit. Apparently listing the images that can be used is not sufficient. Also add a link to section explaining how to get CD images. | |||
2009-11-06 | x86 usb-boot: two improvements suggested by Timo Juhani Lindfors | Frans Pop | |
- hd-media and netboot use different names for kernel binary: the first uses 'vmlinuz', the second 'linux' - when repartitioning the stick, don't forget to set bootable flag | |||
