Hello!
Incoming from johannes swoboda:
Hello! I'm actually using grml with harddisk-installation.I've also installed some debian packages. My question: What are the main goals or the differents between grml and a "normal" debian installation?
Grml tries to mitigate Unstable's instability by testing upstream stuff from Sid before allowing it into Grml. This way, they hope for the best of both worlds: relative stability as well as bleeding edge software.
So which software repository is actually used? I have a stock debian and added the GRML repo, to have a look what´s in there. I found 29 packages and wondering now, which part of debian you are using. Is this just added to make the "pure" debian unstable a bit more convenient and userfriendly?
It's not perfect; nothing is. It's more perfect than stock Debian Sid, and way more up to date than Debian Stable.
Is it possible to set up grml with "testing"? Thats what i have right now, but i dont like the debian installer, and i dont want to download all the KDE-libs when choosing "desktop-install" and so on (when doin a new install on another machine). You know the hassles of the Installer :-)
Thanks in advance, Frank
