This matters, when + the output goes to a pipe, because then Python would buffer the + output, meaning that progress output gets delayed until the buffer + fills up, and that's useless. + +* The documentation is now formatted using Subplot. Previously, the + manual and the acceptance test suite were split into separate, but + confusingly named files (vmdb2.md vs vmdb2.mdwn); now they are + combined. The manual has been cleaned up a bit. + +* Add a `quiet` field to the **grub step** to configure the kernel + boot to be quiet or not. Default is now not quiet, which is a change + from before. + +* Add a `timeout` field to the **grub step** to configure grub menu + timeout. Default is now zero seconds, which is a change from the + Debian default of five seconds. + +* Symbolic links can now be used in the **mkpart step** for device + files, thanks to Tim Small. |
