vmelilo (1.5.2) unstable; urgency=high

  * Removed canonicalisation of filenames referenced by loader file map,
    which broke the --root option. Restructuring needed to re-implement it.

 -- Nick Holgate <holgate@debian.org>  Mon, 23 Jul 2001 22:04:11 +0100

vmelilo (1.5.1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Rebuilt with GCC 2.95.4 and binutils 2.11.90.0.7. 

 -- Nick Holgate <holgate@debian.org>  Tue,  3 Jul 2001 14:13:56 +0100

vmelilo (1.5.0) unstable; urgency=low

  * Added 'optional' boot configuration option.
  * Added --quiet command line option.
  * Fixed problem with test mode and not yet created boot loader file.
  * Tidied up some output messages.
  * Improved accuracy of reported location of config file errors.

 -- Nick Holgate <holgate@debian.org>  Wed, 18 Apr 2001 00:26:33 +0100

vmelilo (1.4.0) unstable; urgency=low

  * Added facility to incorporate kernel command line parameters stored
    in boot ROM non-volatile storage.
  * Loader file map definitions use the canonicalised filename to ensure
    that a file is include only once and thus minimising the file map size.
  * BVME loader modified to call BVMBug using 'trap #15' calls, requires
    BVMBug revision G or later.

 -- Nick Holgate <holgate@debian.org>  Wed,  7 Mar 2001 23:16:54 +0000

vmelilo (1.3.2-1) unstable; urgency=high

  * Fixed problem where the default kernel is not added to the boot loader
    file map rendering any boot configuration relying on the default kernel
    unbootable.

 -- Nick Holgate <holgate@debian.org>  Thu, 18 Nov 1999 13:48:38 +0000

vmelilo (1.3.1-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Recomplied with GCC 2.95.2.
  * Standards 3.0.1.

 -- Nick Holgate <holgate@debian.org>  Sun, 10 Oct 1999 22:52:21 +0100

vmelilo (1.3.0-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Added new configuration file options:
       console
       root
       read-only
       read-write
  * Kernel command line parameters entered at boot prompt no longer replace
    options specified by config file 'cmdline' option, but are appended after.
  * Fixed off by one error when checking for full kernel command line.

 -- Nick Holgate <holgate@debian.org>  Wed,  7 Jul 1999 00:54:28 +0100

vmelilo (1.2.2-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fixed description of 'master-password' configuration option in man page. 

 -- Nick Holgate <holgate@debian.org>  Sun, 13 Jun 1999 23:19:19 +0100

vmelilo (1.2.1-1) unstable; urgency=high

  * Added support for SCSI_DISK[1-7]_MAJOR devices in 2.2 kernels.
  * Fixed incorrect machine type for MVME147.

 -- Nick Holgate <holgate@debian.org>  Fri, 14 May 1999 01:23:52 +0100

vmelilo (1.2.0-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * File I/O code in loader rewritten to support disks larger than 4Gb.
  * New IPL code for MVME.
  * BVME now uses an IPL to load the kernel loader.
  * Added MVME147 support.
  * Don't allow spaces in boot record name or alias.
  * Allow 'Yes', 'No' and numeric input for boolean config file parameters.
  * Abort if boot device not specified in either config file or command line.
  * Boot loader input timeout relaxed to mean idle time between key presses
    rather than time in which full input line must be entered.
  * Made larger portions of the loader code common to both BVME and MVME thus
    reducing the number of architecture specific functions required.
  * Converted Debian packaging rules to use debhelper.
  * Added VME specific bootinfo tags for future kernels.
  * Allow configuration file input lines to be continued with a backslash.
  * Configuration section marker '[options]' is no longer required at
    start of configuration file.
  * Reorganised source code directory structure to allow for conditional
    compilation of each supported sub-architecture.
  * A default value for the 'append' config parameter may now be specified
    in the global (options) part of the config file.
  * Modified the usage of 'cmdline', 'append' and boot prompt input to match
    that of tftplilo(8). i.e. 'cmdline' is used only if no boot prompt input
    is made then the 'append' parameter is appended.
  * Allow 'restricted' boot configurations without a password.
  * When listing boot configurations the loader now shows if configuration
    is restricted or needs a password.
  * Don't allow boot configurations with label or alias of 'su', 'help'
    or '?'.
  * Added master password configuration.
  * Entering ? or help at the boot prompt displays list of internal commands.
  * The following commands can now be entered at the boot prompt su, exit,
    debug, call, show and break.

 -- Nick Holgate <holgate@debian.org>  Mon, 10 May 1999 23:03:00 +0000

vmelilo (1.1.1-1) frozen unstable; urgency=high

  * Bootloader now displays version number.
  * Added 'callmonitor' usage warning in man page.
  * Fixed MVME IPL code to actually load at address 0x10000 like it's
    supposed to.

 -- Nick Holgate <holgate@debian.org>  Mon, 23 Nov 1998 00:53:00 +0000

vmelilo (1.1.0-1) frozen unstable; urgency=high

  * Recompiled using 68060 specific optimisations to prevent generation
    of unimplemented integer instruction exceptions when booting MVME172's
  * Fixed uninitialised field in MVME boot block.
    Courtesy of Richard Hirst <richard@sleepie.demon.co.uk>
  * Fixed MVME file read routines to cope with 'holes'.
    Courtesy of Richard Hirst <richard@sleepie.demon.co.uk>
  * Implemented 'callmonitor' configuration parameter for MVME.
  * Recoded MVME print formatter.
  * Bootloader now operates entirely in DRAM and loads at address 0x10000,
    this allows the bootroms to be configured to use the lower 64K for local
    storage instead of the battery backed SRAM.

 -- Nick Holgate <holgate@debian.org>  Fri, 20 Aug 1998 00:28:00 +0000

vmelilo (1.0.3-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Rewritten command line parser to use getopt_long().
  * Fixed problem where if --loader option was specified before --root
    the loader name would not be prefixed with the root directory name.

 -- Nick Holgate <holgate@debian.org>  Wed, 5 Aug 1998 10:27:00 +0100

vmelilo (1.0.2-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Removed dependency on 2.1.xx kernel includes.
  * Moved large I/O buffers in loader from stack to heap storage.
  * Removed arbitrary 2Mb minimum ram size requirement from loader.
  * Moved loader global variables into heap allocated storage to
    reduce loader file size.

 -- Nick Holgate <nick_h@bvmltd.co.uk>  Thu, 30 Jul 1998 13:40:00 +0100

vmelilo (1.0.1-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fixed problem with mvme loader disk read trying to read partial disk block
    at end of file if file size was not multiple of disk block size.
    Problem found and fixed by Richard Hirst <richard@sleepie.demon.co.uk>

 -- Nick Holgate <nick_h@bvmltd.co.uk>  Fri, 24 Jul 1998 10:20:00 +0100

vmelilo (1.0.0-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Initial Release.
