Hi, just in time we have a present for you! The first release candidate of the upcoming Grml version 2018.12, code-named 'Gnackwatschn' is available. This Grml release provides fresh software packages from Debian testing (AKA buster). As usual it also incorporates current hardware support and fixes known bugs from the previous Grml release. For detailed information about the changes between 2017.05 and 2018.12 have a look at the official release announcement: https://grml.org/changelogs/README-grml-2018.12-rc1/ You can download Grml 2018.12-rc1 from: https://grml.org/download/prerelease/ Please test the ISOs and everything you usually use and rely on, and report back so we can complete the stable release soon. If no major problems come up, the next iteration will be the stable release, which is scheduled for the end of December (2018 *cough* :)). Thanks to all our wonderful contributors! regards, -mika- - for the Grml.org project

There's a "Get Checksum/Signature" URL on https://grml.org/download/prerelease/ available, doesn't this provide what you need? Anyway, I took this as a chance to sync content of https://grml.org/download/ with https://grml.org/download/prerelease/ and hope it's better now! If you have any ideas how to improve this please let us know, or even better just provide a pull request against https://github.com/grml/grml.org/ :) > Many thanks for providing this awesome peace of software ;-) \o/ :) regards, -mika-
