    temporary removal of crypto modules.

  [ Frans Pop ]
  * Assume amd64 needs similar limits as i386.
  * Update lowmem settings for Etch Beta 3; settings are somewhat conservative
    and can hopefully be lowered again in the future. Main culprit for
    increased memory usage is the number of supported languages which also
    explains the large differences between level 1 and 2 limits.

 -- Frans Pop <fjp@debian.org>  Mon, 31 Jul 2006 13:33:05 +0200

    anna-install requires a functional debconf and will fail to install
    lowmem otherwise.

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Wed, 18 Jan 2006 13:38:23 +0000

lowmem (1.15) unstable; urgency=low

    you should use standard workarounds to avoid svn directories.
  * Clean up kernel fuzz in minimum memory checking.
  * Update mipsel lowmem levels to match the numbers in the changelog for
    1.07.

  [ Christian Perrier ]
  * Set the locale to C in lowmem mode. Closes: #341540 (with localechooser

    debian-installer/locale as seen
    Closes: #329175

 -- Christian Perrier <bubulle@debian.org>  Tue, 20 Sep 2005 18:12:08 +0200

lowmem (1.10) unstable; urgency=low

  * Mark debian-installer/locale seen to properly preseed it and avoid the
    localechooser questions being asked.

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Mon, 20 Jun 2005 22:28:00 -0400

lowmem (1.08) unstable; urgency=low

  * Joey Hess
    - Try to reword the templates to avoid referring to installation, since
      the system may be used in rescue mode.
    - Set a "low memory mode" info message (rescue mode comes after and
      beats this message). Requires cdebconf-udeb 0.75 and main-menu 1.03.

lowmem (1.02) unstable; urgency=low

  * Joey Hess
    - Add Sylvain Ferriol's lowmem level patch.
    - Modifed to store the level in /var/lib/lowmem. Level 1 is default
      lowmem mode, level 2 is super lowmem mode. The file still doesn't exist
      in non-lowmem mode.
    - Documented this.
    - Add error message if the machine doesn't have even the minimum
      supported memory. Closes: #266984

lowmem (1.00) unstable; urgency=low

  * Thiemo Seufer
    - Increase userspace RAM trigger for mips to 33 MB.

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Thu, 29 Jul 2004 23:31:55 -0400

lowmem (0.14) unstable; urgency=low

  * Martin Michlmayr
    - Before running the "kill" command, check whether there is actually
      any suitable "tail" process to kill; otherwise the postinst will
      fail when there is no such process which is always the case in
      serial console installs and might be the case when the postinst
      is run twice.  Closes: #260949
    - Also, be super cautious and use kill $pid || true because there
      is the possibilty for a race occuring; thanks, Joey Hess.
    - Increase needed ram on mipsel from 25 to 33: installations on
      Cobalt machines without lowmem do not work with 32 MB but work
      with 36 MB, so enable lowmem when less than 36 MB are found.
      (Machines with 35 MB RAM are shown to have 32, 32 MB are shown
      as 29, so pick 33 for needed ram.)

lowmem (0.13) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fixes for when countrychooser is not installed, as in a floppy install,
    and for general robustness if other debconf questions are missing.
    Closes: #260628

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Wed, 21 Jul 2004 20:05:54 -0400

lowmem (0.12) unstable; urgency=low

  * Move the stuff in S31lowmem to S10lowmem, so it runs before the code that
    decides whether to enable framebuffer. I think this code moved during
    recent rootskel changes.
