installing dhcpcd requires removing grml packages
by Peter 25 Sep '08

25 Sep '08

Hi I would like to say: aptitude install dhcpcd but aptitude wants to remove pump which in turn want to remove : grml grml-autoconfig grml-debugtools grml-etc grml-x grml2hd This seems like a lot of change. Is it possible to use dhcpcd without making grml unstable ? Also, I was wondering, according to various threads I read, if dhcpcd is not superior to pump, so why has it not been selected for the distribution ? Thank a lot Peter

file-rc
by T o n g 17 Sep '08

17 Sep '08

Hi, During my recent (massive) 'aptitude safe-upgrade', my file-rc was automatically removed. Is grml still using file-rc? I want to use back the file-rc. Any precautions I should take? I.e., how do I find out what is the current ??-rc that I'm using? thanks -- Tong (remove underscore(s) to reply) http://xpt.sourceforge.net/techdocs/ http://xpt.sourceforge.net/tools/

[grml2usb] Minimize the number of files in the root directory on the usb drive
by Sebastian Krause 16 Sep '08

16 Sep '08

Hello! When I copy grml to a usb pen drive with grml2usb, it puts 30 files and directories into the root directory of that drive. Since I also want to use that drive for other stuff (like portable apps, multimedia files etc.) it's not nice to see my drive cluttered with dozens of files when I access it in some file manager. I've seen some live systems (I guess it was http://sidux.com/) which only need very few files to boot and put almost all of them into some subdirectory so that my directory structure stays pretty clean. It would be nice if grml could achive something similar, or are there any good reasons against this? Sebastian

Hi, Is it ok to use a plain directory as the '--target' parameter for grml-debootstrap? Seems so to me according to the grml-debootstrap(8) and the debootstrap/config file. But this is what I get: * Running grml-debootstrap on a directory, nothing to mount. * Running grml-debootstrap on a directory, nothing to mount. * Error: /lfs/cache12/systems/distros/test-sys not mounted, can not con [ !! ] Ps, I'm using the lastest grml-debootstrap released today: $ apt-cache policy grml-debootstrap grml-debootstrap: Installed: 0.20 Candidate: 0.20 Version table: *** 0.20 0 683 http://deb.grml.org grml-testing/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status thanks -- Tong (remove underscore(s) to reply) http://xpt.sourceforge.net/techdocs/ http://xpt.sourceforge.net/tools/

grml and grml64 on one CD?
by Thorsten Strusch 18 Aug '08

18 Aug '08

Hi! I have several i386 and amd64 debian servers. So I have to use grml-medium and grml64-medium CDs. It would be great, if I can have just one CD/DVD with both versions on it. How can I achieve this? Is grml-live able to produce such an multiarch CD? Or if I could change /live to /live64 for grml64, I could use syslinux to select the version to boot... thanks for your help Thorsten
