Hi,
* Gregory Amaudruz [Tue Dec 04, 2018 at 01:24:28PM -0800]:
I put the iso file in a direcotoy of my usb stick and installed grub to boot it from
in the Grub file
I put:
submenu "GRML 2014.11 ---> " { menuentry "Grml Rescue System 64bit" { iso_path="/boot/iso/grml64-full_2014.11.iso" export iso_path loopback loop (hd0,1)$iso_path set root=(loop) kernelopts=" ssh=foobarbaz toram " export kernelopts configfile /boot/grub/loopback.cfg }
for that verson
But that BIG problem with that once I am on the linux and I open a terminal and type:
fdisk -l
The entire drive is looped.
So, I have multiple partitions of the USB Stick and I want to make it so that it loops only the first partition NOT the entrie drive. So, that I can mount septrate partions that are on the drive and have access to reading file and puting files on it.
So what you're talking about is the "toram" boot option.
What to I need to put in the grub file as the description like what is above, So that it loops only the first partion on the drive and NOT the entire drive????????
It's not possible to select a specific partition, but you can restrict it to loading just the underlying rootfs. This should do the trick: "toram=grml64-full.squashfs" (instead of the "toram")
Alos, if you can give me the GRUB descrption for the NEW GRML you have on your website, rather then the 2014 one. having the new Full version of the 64-bit, would be great.
Sould be enough to just replace the ISO and update iso_path accordingly.
