Version 0.6  -  2008/04/20
===========

Compressed the linux kernel with upx. Even if I wanted to avoid upx this is
still a good idea because this will not affect the system once booted. And
the system still boots happily with 4MB RAM. There is exactly the same
amount of free ram like before. And there is a little more disk space.

Added ms-sys 2.1.3 (statically linked).

Since partition tools like fdisk and the e2fsprogs are included into busybox
and we include separately dosfsprogs, gpart and ms-sys we now habe a pretty
complete rescue system for computers with very low ram.

Supported filesystems are ext2, ext3, iso9660 and vfat.

The system should boot on any 386 (fpu not neccessary) with at least 4 MB RAM.

Released the first Floppy Version.
Please report bugs to BG-TLB@Giannone.de


Version 0.5
===========

Added a little welcome message to the beginning of the boot process. So the
user knows what system he is starting...

Added dosfsprogs 2.11-2.3 with debian patches (statically linked).
Added gpart 0.1h-4.1 with debian patches (statically linked).

Recompiled lilo 22.8 and removed some unneeded config options:
-DEVMS -DREISERFS -DVIRTUAL -DDEVMAPPER

This version was never released.


Version 0.4
===========

Added linux kernel 2.4.36.2 with the patches from BG-Rescue Linux.

Added a little kernel patch to make it possible to boot without user
interaction. This would be needed normally because when one uses /dev/fd0 as
root device the kernel change_floppy mechanism is activated.

Added /sbin/help a little utility to list the available programs. This is a
good idea because there are no bisybox symlinks to save space. So one would
assume that there are almose no programs included.

Added many new keyboard layouts for the user to choose one at boot time. The
used ones are the familiar ones from BG-Rescue Linux. This does not waste
much space and is very comfortable. At least it does not use additional ram.

This version was never released.


Version 0.3
===========

Changed the bootloader to extlinux a version of syslinux which is suited to
boot from an ext2 file system.

Added the vfat filesystem along with the needed codepages for accessing
dos/windows filesystems.

Removed serial port support.
Removed devfs support.

Using an old style static /dev directory again. This saves quite a lot of
ram. Unfortunatelly it uses space on the floppy but fortunatelly not too
much ;-) ...

This version was never released.


Version 0.2
===========

Addes some new busybox applets: loadkmap, devfsd.
Switched the logging modes to silent.

Not using devfsd because it needs too much ram. The goal is to use only 4 MB
of RAM for the whole system.

Updated the scripts in etc and some symlinks in /sbin and /bin. The system
is more comfortable now.

Using german keymap.

This version was never released.


Version 0.1
===========

This is the initial release of BG-TinyLinuxBootdisk (BG-TLB) my fork of Tiny
Linux Bootdisk (TLB). The functionality should now be almost the same. 

BG-TLB is a very small rescue linux system which runs from one single floppy
disk without using a ramdisk. So it can run on systems with *very little*
ram. The negative part is that you can't remove the floppy disk.

The advantage is that we use a newer busybox version and static linking.
Therefore we can save much space and achive the same functionality without
compressing with UPX on a single 1.4MB floppy disk. And we have some free
space left for cool things.

Included the following programs:
busybox 1.3.2 (statically linked akainst uClibc 0.9.24)
lilo 22.8 with some tlb patches (statically linked akainst uClibc 0.9.24)

This version was never released.
