Configuration settings:
-----------------------
-grml myconfig=/dev/fd0 Execute "grml.sh" and extract config.tbz from a partition:
+grml myconfig=/dev/fd0 Set the DCS dir (debs, config, scripts) to the root of this device
+ DCS dir defaults to the live image or a device labeled GRMLCFG
+ 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 netconfig=server/config.tbz Download file and extract configuration archive
+grml netscript=server/file Download and execute file [Note: only available in releases >2009.05]
grml partconf=/dev/hda2 Copy files specified in /etc/grml/partconf from /dev/hda2
to booting grml system
grml file=foobar.tbz Use specified file as name for configuration archive
grml home=/dev/sda1/grml.img Mount loopback file as /home/grml
grml home=scan Automatic search for grml homedir (using file grml.img)
grml hostname=... Set hostname
+grml nodhcphostname Do not to set the hostname according to the dns information
grml distri=... Set distribution name to given argument. If a jpg file named like the
given distri name can be found in directory desktop on the ISO
- (/cdrom/desktop/"$DISTRI") it will be taken as wallpaper for grml
+ (/cdrom/desktop/"$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 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
+grml debs=path-name-wildcard install Debian packages matching the path-name-wildcard in the
+ DCS dir
+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
-Notice: Take a look at http://grml.org/config/ and /usr/share/doc/grml-saveconfig/grml-config.html
+Notice: Take a look at http://grml.org/config/ and 'man 1 grml-autoconfig'
for more information regarding the configuration framework of grml.
Booting related options:
grml bootfrom=/dev/sda1 Use the squashfs file from directory 'live' of the specified device
Setup can be done booting 'grml tohd=/dev/sda1' or
running 'rsync -a --progress /live/image/live /mnt/sda1/'
+grml bootfrom=removable Restrict search for the live media to removable type only.
+grml bootfrom=removable-usb Restrict search for the live media to usb mass storage only.
grml isofrom=/dev/sda1/grml.iso Use specified ISO image for booting
Useful when booting as a rescue system from harddisk - just boot
the according grml kernel and initrd using the bootoptions
grml gcc=3.4 gpp=3.4 Link /usr/bin/gcc, /usr/bin/cpp and /usr/bin/c++ to specified version
grml startx{=windowmanager} Start X window system automatically
Default window manager (if not provided): wm-ng (wrapper around fluxbox)
+grml nostartx If using startx as default bootoption the nostartx *disables* automatic
+ 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.)
Accessibility related settings:
-------------------------------
grml nolvm Disable scanning for Logical Volumes (LVM)
grml lvm Automatically activate Logival Volumes (LVM) during boot
grml readonly Make sure all harddisk devices (/dev/hd* /dev/sd*) are forced to read-only mode
+grml ethdevice=... Use specified network device for network boot instead of default (eth0)
grml xmodule=ati|fbdev|i810|mga Use specified X.org-Module (1)
grml xmodule=nv|radeon|savage|s3 Use specified X.org-Module (2)
grml xmodule=radeon|svga|i810 Use specified X.org-Module (3)

grml ide2=0x180 nopcmcia Boot from PCMCIA-CD-ROM (some notebooks)
grml mem=128M Specify Memory size in MByte
-grml dma Enable DMA accelleration for ALL IDE-Drives
-grml nodma ide=nodma Disable DMA accelleration for ALL IDE-Drives
+grml libata.force=[ID:]VAL Force configurations for libata.
+ Usage example: grml libata.force=1:pio4
+ to force pio4 mode on device "ata1:00:"
+grml libata.dma=0 Disable DMA on PATA and SATA devices
+grml libata.ignore_hpa=1 Disable host protected area (which should enable the whole disk)
grml vga=normal [video=ofonly] No-framebuffer mode (does not influence X)
grml vga=ask [video=ofonly] Display menu for framebuffer mode
