Specify the CLASSES to be used for building the ISO via FAI. By default only
the classes GRMLBASE, GRML_MEDIUM and I386 are assumed, resulting in a small base
system (being about ~180MB total ISO size). If using a non-I386 system (like
-amd64) you should specify the appropriate architecture as well. Additionally you
+AMD64) you should specify the appropriate architecture as well. Additionally you
can specify a class providing a grml-kernel (see
<<classes,the 'CLASSES' section in this document>> for details about available classes).
So instead of GRML_MEDIUM you can also use GRML_SMALL and GRML_FULL.
+[IMPORTANT]
+All class names should be written in uppercase letters. Do not use a dash, use
+an underscore. So do not use "amd64" but "AMD64", do not use "FOO BAR" but
+"FOO_BAR".

+defaults of grml-live. Configurations via /etc/grml/grml-live.local are preferred
over the ones from /etc/grml/grml-live.conf. If you want to override settings
from /etc/grml/grml-live.local as well you have to specify them on the grml-live
commandline.
Instead use the GRML_LIVE_SOURCES variable inside /etc/grml/grml-live.conf or
/etc/grml/grml-live.local which modifies /etc/grml/fai/apt/sources.list
on-the-fly via grml-live then. If you want to generally adjust apt configuration
