grml debs=path-name-wildcard Install Debian packages from DCS directory (see myconfig=,
typically the root of your ISO image). If path does not contain a
"/" the package(s) will be installed from directory "debs" of the
- DCS directory instead. The "path-name-wildcard" can contain
- wildcards (e.g. debs=rat* will install a packages starting with "rat"
- from directory debs/).
+ DCS directory instead. The "path-name-wildcard" can contain
+ wildcards (e.g. debs=rat* will install a packages starting with "rat"
+ from directory debs/).
grml scripts=path-name Execute script (defaulting to grml.sh) inside DCS dir. Path names
allowed. If path-name points to a directory, all scripts found in
the directory are executed.
grml config=path-name Unpack archive that path-name points to
grml noautoconfig Disable searching for device labeled GRMLCFG
+grml nobeep Disable welcome chime, sounded before grml-quickconfig starts.
Notice: Take a look at http://grml.org/config/ and 'man 1 grml-autoconfig'
for more information regarding the configuration framework of Grml.
[Note: releases before 2011.05 didn't support DNS but IP only.]
grml live-media-path=live Sets the path to the live filesystem on the medium
By default, it is set to /live
+grml nostats Don't send any information to the Grml project at startup.
+ Parameters sent are Grml version, if the cpu supports 64bit,
+ anonymized boot parameters and boot source (remote or local).
+ [Note: only available since release 2011.12]
grml module=grml Instead of using the default "$name.module" another file can
be specified without the extension ".module"; it should be placed
on "/live" directory of the live medium
grml nogpm Disable GPM daemon
grml noconsolefont Disable setting of console font (using consolechars)
grml noblank Disable console blanking
-grml tsplash Text based bootsplash
grml noquick Disable grml-quickconfig startup script
grml small Do not start that many consoles
grml wondershaper=eth0,1000,500 Set up basic traffic shaping
startup of X again. (This bootoption is relevant for grml based derivatives
which decide to enable startx by default only, plain grml does not use
automatic startup of X by default.)
+grml vnc=password Start VNC server with startup of X.org and sets the password to the specified
+ one. To automatically start the VNC server use the startx bootoption.
+grml vnc_connect=host[:port] Connect to a listening VNC client ("vncviewer -listen" reverse connection).
+ Can be used to connect from devices behind firewalls as connection is
+ initiated from the VNC server instead of the VNC client. Has to be
+ combined with the vnc bootoption.
+ [Note: only available since release 2011.12]

Installation related settings:
------------------------------
-Caution: do *NOT* use the grml2hd and/or debian2hd bootoption if you do not know what you are doing!
+Caution: do *NOT* use the debian2hd bootoption if you do not know what you are doing!
Install plain Debian via debian2hd bootoption (which runs grml-debootstrap in non-interactive mode):
See http://grml.org/grml-debootstrap/ for more information.
-Install grml via grml2hd bootoption (which runs grml2hd in non-interactive mode):
-
-grml2hd <options> ... whereas valid options for grml2hd are:
-
- user= user name for user which should be used at hd-install
- filesystem={ext2|ext3|reiserfs|reiser4|jfs|xfs} filesystem to be used
- mbr=/dev/... partition where MBR should be installed (default:=partition)
- partition=/dev/... partition where grml should be installed
-
- Usage example for booting:
- grml2hd partition=/dev/sda4 mbr=/dev/sda filesystem=ext3 user=mika
-
- Passwords of user root and user are "grml" - please adjust after hd-install!
-
- See http://grml.org/grml2hd/ for more information.

Additional notes:
-----------------
*) In case of a failing hardware autodetection, try booting with any of
the "no-" options as shown in the table above, like in
- grml noagp noapm noapic acpi=off nodma
+ grml noagp noapic acpi=off nodma
to skip some critical parts of the autodetection system.
*) Some boards (especially those with E-ISA slots) apparently don't pass
