# Important: you definitely have to adjust the following variables!
################################################################################
-# target partition (where should Debian be installed to)
-# usage example:
+## The most important question: target of the new Debian system
+## Where should Debian be installed to?
+#
+# Usually you want to use a partition. If you specify a string *without* /dev/
+# in the beginning, grml-debootstrap assumes you want to install Debian into a
+# directory. If so then MKFS, TUNE2FS, GRUB, GROOT and FSCK won't apply, no
+# matter of the configuration variables. Make sure the TARGET-directory is on a
+# partition with present dev and exec mount options.
+#
+# usage examples:
# TARGET='/dev/hda1'
+# TARGET='/mnt/grml'
TARGET=''
-# where do you want to install grub to?
-# notice: hd0,0 is *first* partition on *first* disk (/dev/sda1 + /dev/hda1)
+## Do you want to install grub? Then adjust the variables GRUB and GROOT.
+## If you do not set the variables grub will not be installed.
+# Where do you want to install grub to? Use grub syntax for specifying
+# hints: hd0,0 is the first partition on the first disk
+# hd0 is the MBR of the first disk
# usage example:
-# GROOT='hd0,0'
-GROOT=''
+# GRUB='hd0'
+GRUB=''
-# partition for use with grub-install
+# specify root device for usage in grub (corresponds with $TARGET)
+# notice: if you install Debian for example to /dev/hda1 use hd0,0
+# hd0,0 is the first partition on the first disk
+# hd0 is the MBR of the first disk
# usage example:
-# MBR='/dev/hda'
-MBR=''
+# GROOT='hd0,0'
+GROOT=''

# Now the variables you might want to adjust, but need not to...
+# set mirror where debootstrap should download packages from

+# architecture (not yet officially supported by grml-debootstrap, work in progress)

-# kernel version
