You want to set some boot parameters permanently? That's possible via adding a directory named 'bootparams' to the Grml ISO which has to be located at the root-directory -/bootparams/ (note: the directory is known as /live/image/bootparams/ on a +/bootparams/ (note: the directory is known as /lib/live/mount/medium/bootparams/ on a _running_ Grml system then). Place a textfile inside the directory containing the boot parameters which should be appended to default ones (this corresponds to booting without any special parameters).
