grml localtime Use local time (UTC=no)
grml tz=Europe/Vienna Use specified timezone for TZ
grml keyboard=us xkeyboard=us Use different keyboard layout (text-console/X)
-grml setkeycodes Set some special function keys for MS/HP keyboards
Configuration settings:
-----------------------
If a file /config.tbz exists, it is extracted from there.
/dev/fd0 for floppy disk
/dev/sda1 for USB-stick/first SCSI-device
+grml autoconfig=SOMELABEL Set the DCS dir to the root of the device labeled with SOMELABEL.
+ If undefined search for a device labeled with GRMLCFG.
grml netconfig=server/config.tbz Download file and extract configuration archive
grml netscript=server/file Download and execute file
-grml partconf=/dev/hda2 Copy files specified in /etc/grml/partconf from /dev/hda2
+grml partconf=/dev/sda2 Copy files specified in /etc/grml/partconf from /dev/sda2
to booting grml system
grml file=foobar.tbz Use specified file as name for configuration archive
instead of the default one (config.tbz)
(/cdrom/desktop/"$DISTRI") it will be taken as wallpaper for grml
grml debnet Search through local partitions for file /etc/network/interfaces,
copy /etc/network to local system and restart networking then
+grml dns=8.8.8.8,8.8.4.4 Set DNS resolvers during boot and for live system.
+grml ip=... Standard Linux kernel ip= boot option. Arguments:
+ clientip:nfsserverip:gwip:netmask:hostname:device:autoconf
+ Valid values for autoconf: off, on, dhcp, bootp, rarp, both.
+ Almost everything is optional. Most common form: ip=dhcp
grml mypath=... Add specified option into $PATH of Zsh
For example when using "grml mypath=/foobar" then /foobar
will be added to the end of $PATH inside Zsh
looks for the .squashfs file (so you don't have to know the device name
as in isofrom=....).
grml fetch=$IP/filename.squashfs Download a squashfs image from a given url, copying to ram and booting it.
- Due to current limitations in busyboxs wget and DNS resolution, an URL
- can not contain a hostname but an IP only.
+ [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 module=grml Instead of using the default "$name.module" another file can

-Caution: do *not* use the grml2hd and/or debian2hd bootoption if you do not know what you are doing!
+Caution: do *NOT* use the grml2hd and/or 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):
debian2hd <options> ... whereas valid options for debian2hd are:
- target= target partition/directory of the new Debian system, e.g.: target=/dev/hda1
- grub= where to install grub to? Use grub syntax for specifying, e.g.: grub=hd0
- groot= specify root device for usage in grub (use grub syntax), e.g.: groot=hd0,0
+ target= target partition/directory of the new Debian system, e.g.: target=/dev/sda1
+ grub= where to install grub to, e.g.: grub=/dev/sda
release= specify release of new Debian system (default is stable), e.g.: release=sid
- mirror= specify mirror for apt-get/aptitude, e,g.: mirror=ftp://ftp.tugraz.at/mirror/debian
+ mirror= specify mirror for apt-get/aptitude, e,g.: mirror=http://cdn.debian.net/debian
password= set passwort of user root without prompting for it, e.g.: password=AiTh5ahn
Usage example for automatic installation:
- debian2hd target=/dev/hda1 grub=hd0 groot=hd0,0 mirror=ftp://ftp.tugraz.at/mirror/debian password=foobar
+ debian2hd target=/dev/sda1 grub=/dev/sda mirror=http://cdn.debian.net/debian password=foobar
See http://grml.org/grml-debootstrap/ for more information.
partition=/dev/... partition where grml should be installed
Usage example for booting:
- grml2hd partition=/dev/hda4 mbr=/dev/hda filesystem=ext3 user=mika
+ grml2hd partition=/dev/sda4 mbr=/dev/sda filesystem=ext3 user=mika
Passwords of user root and user are "grml" - please adjust after hd-install!
