# Release notes for v-i
-This file summarizes changes between releases of v-i, the vmdb2-based
-installer of Debian onto bare metal systems.
+This file summarizes user-visible changes between releases of v-i, the
+vmdb2-based installer of Debian onto bare metal systems.
+# Version 0.2, released 2022-08-07
+
+## New or changed features
+
+* New script `configure-installer` allows configuring an installer
+ image that has been written to a USB drive or other block device. It
+ replaced the older `set-authorized-key` script. It adds support for
+ SSH CA and host host certificates for the installer, and accepting
+ user certificates for logging into the installer.
+
+* The tutorial is a little improved and will hopefully be possible to
+ understand even if you don't already know everything.
+
+* The installer image now boots a little faster: it now uses
+ `systemd-networkd` instead of `iupdown` to bring up the network, and
+ the persistent `journald` system log is disabled.
+
+* The `/etc/v-i-version` file contains information about the version
+ of the `v-i` repository used to build the installer image.
+
+## Bug fixes
+
+* `ping` now works on the installer.
+
+## Other notable changes
+
+* The `rootfs.tar.gz` tarball that used to be included in the
+ installer image is gone. It wasn't useful for anything but building
+ an installer image.
