memtest86+ in grml 2022.11
by Sebastian Bachmann 19 Okt '23

19 Okt '23

Hi! I just had the issue that the memtest86+ on my grml usb stick always froze during testing. I had this issue now several times with newer hardware and it is certainly a problem with old memtest86+. My stick had 2021.07 on it and I replaced it by 2022.11 now. The release notes say that apparently memtest86+ v6 should be integrated, but it still boots v5.01? To check the memory now, I grabbed another stick and dd'ed the memtest image for v6.2 - which works perfectly and the memtest is currently running. I just wondered if grml 2022.11 should ship memtest86+ v6 but still ships 5.01 by mistake or if this is a mistake in the documentation (or perhaps means something different)? Best, Sebastian

fstab-entry change
by Hans Schneidhofer 14 Sep '23

14 Sep '23

hi, on a PC with Debian 11 installed, an SSD can neither be read nor written. I have now restarted the PC with a grml. How can I change the entry in /etc/fstab on this PC with the help of grml so that this defective SSD is not taken into account when restarting? Unfortunately, I can't quite get along with the new grml. I used to be able to log in with a password and mount the file system of the PC system with root rights, e.g. on /mnt /computername/ and then edit /etc/fstab. How can I do this with the new version grml-64-full 2022 ? Any help ist welcome bye hans

Can't get ssh=password to work
by John G. Heim 08 Mär '22

08 Mär '22

Hi, I'm blind and I am trying to start grml64-full_2021.07.isoin a VirtualbBox virtual machine. I cannot seem to get the ssh daemon started. There doesn't seem to be much time to type in the "ssh=password" boot configuration parameter. What I do is to take a screen shot via the VirtualBox command. Then I run it through a optical char recognition program. This gives me a pretty good sense of what is on the screen. But no matter how fast I do it, I never seem to get a boot prompt. I am thinking that maybe the process of typing in boot parms has changed since the switch to grub. onfiguration -- ### John G. Heim, 608-263-4189, jheim(a)math.wisc.edu

Running GRML in a VirtualBox virtual machine
by John G. Heim 07 Mär '22

07 Mär '22

I am having trouble running grml64-full_2021.07.iso in a VirtualBox virtual machine. It starts up okay but when I press q to exit the menu, the virtual machine becomes unresponsive and I lose control of my GUI on the host. The host is Ubuntu mate 21.10. The virtual machine has 4Gb of ram and 2 CPUs. Any tips on special configuration items that grml might like in a virtual machine? ### John G. Heim, 608-263-4189, jheim(a)math.wisc.edu
