Dear list,
I'm trying to boot GRML over ipxe's sanboot. It fails when mounting
root:
Begin: Mounting root file system ...
(initramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system
This is probably no surprise because sanboot is similar to booting using
memdisk but without a download delay.

"The good news is that Grml supports the memdiskfind/phram/mtdblock
approach out-of-the-box."
Meaning you do something like
modprobe phram phram=memdisk,$(memdiskfind)
modprobe mtdblock
as mentioned here http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php/MEMDISK#Linux.
But memdiskfind returns nothing.
My ipxe config contains
:grmlsan
sanboot ${url}/iso/grml32-small_2014.03.iso || goto failed
Any hints to boot Grml over sanboot?

Hi,
we just released Grml 2014.11 - Gschistigschasti
This Grml release provides fresh software packages from Debian
testing (AKA jessie). As usual it also incorporates up2date hardware
support and fixes known bugs from the previous Grml release.
More information is available in the release notes of Grml 2014.11:
http://grml.org/changelogs/README-grml-2014.11/
Grab the latest Grml ISO(s) and spread the word!

PS: Special thanks to Christian Hofstaedtler for helping us in
solving a big release stopper caused by udev's net.agent on systems
without systemd (AKA http://bugs.debian.org/754987 )
Thanks everyone and happy grml-ing,
-mika-
