It provides a script for update-grub which looks for Grml ISO images in \fI/boot/grml\f1, and automatically adds an entry for each image. The purpose is to use one of those images to boot a Grml rescue system without using a CD, USB stick or network boot (PXE). \fIupdate-grml-rescueboot\f1 is a script which checks for the latest stable version of Grml (via download.grml.org), ensures there's enough free disk space in \fI/boot/grml\f1 and downloads the ISO to \fI/boot/grml\f1. It verifies the ISO signature and upon success executes update-grub then. Everything should be ready for booting a Grml ISO via GRUB then. This script makes integration of a Grml ISO into GRUB via grml-rescueboot even easier. All that needs to be done is install grml-rescueboot and invoke update-grml-rescueboot afterwards. Using the \fI-a\f1 and \fI-t\f1 options it's possible to use specific Grml ISOs. If none of those options is specific it defaults to the grml-full flavour, matching the currently running hardware architecture (i?86 or x86_64). +.SH OPTIONS +.TP +\fB-a \fIarg\fB\f1 +Choose Grml architecture, specified via \fIarg\f1. Supported flavours are '32', '64' and '96'. If unset defaults to the currently running architecture. +.TP +\fB-f\f1 +Force execution, ignoring, e.g. existing ISO files and disk space checks for \fI/boot/grml\f1. +.TP +\fB-h\f1 +Display usage information and exit script. +.TP +\fB-t \fIarg\fB\f1 +Choose Grml flavour, specified via \fIarg\f1. Supported flavours are 'small' and 'full'. If unset defaults to 'full'. +.SH AUTHOR +update-grml-rescueboot was written by Michael Prokop, based on a script by Felipe Sateler. +.SH BUGS +Please report them towards Debian's BTS, see https://bugs.debian.org/grml-rescueboot.
