Hi,
I need to do something I didn't do for years: booting grml from a hard disk without findiso and/or isofrom (since both options don't seem to work when the disk is /dev/cciss/c0d0p1).
I tried many times with different boot options, but the boot invariably stops at the "Searching for GRML file, this might take a few seconds" and dumps me to a shell after a few minutes.
What are the parameters needed to point grml directly to the squashfs file?
I think that this:
menuentry "grml64-medium" { insmod ext2 set root=(hd0,1) search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 612d104f-2721-4b2a-93d4-69acac9cacd4 linux /grml/grml64-2009.10/boot/grml64medium/linux26 quiet lang=de boot=live noeject noprompt keyboard=de live-media-path=/grml/grml64-2009.10/live/ toram=/grml/grml64-2009.10/live/grml64-medium.squashfs nodhcp myconfig=/dev/cciss/c0d0p1 scripts=boot/grml/network.sh serial console=ttyS0,115200n8 initrd /grml/grml64-2009.10/boot/grml64medium/initrd.gz }
is correct for this directory layout:
/boot/grml/ /boot/grml/grml64-2009.10 /boot/grml/grml64-2009.10/cdrom.ico /boot/grml/grml64-2009.10/GRML /boot/grml/grml64-2009.10/GRML/index.html /boot/grml/grml64-2009.10/GRML/images /boot/grml/grml64-2009.10/GRML/images/favicon.png /boot/grml/grml64-2009.10/GRML/images/button.png /boot/grml/grml64-2009.10/GRML/images/logo.png /boot/grml/grml64-2009.10/GRML/images/linux.jpg /boot/grml/grml64-2009.10/GRML/grml-version /boot/grml/grml64-2009.10/GRML/md5sums /boot/grml/grml64-2009.10/GRML/README.txt /boot/grml/grml64-2009.10/GRML/style.css /boot/grml/grml64-2009.10/GRML/grml-cheatcodes.txt /boot/grml/grml64-2009.10/GRML/LICENSE.txt /boot/grml/grml64-2009.10/autorun.pif /boot/grml/grml64-2009.10/live /boot/grml/grml64-2009.10/live/filesystem.module /boot/grml/grml64-2009.10/live/grml64-medium.squashfs /boot/grml/grml64-2009.10/autorun.bat /boot/grml/grml64-2009.10/autorun.inf /boot/grml/grml64-2009.10/boot /boot/grml/grml64-2009.10/boot/grml64medium /boot/grml/grml64-2009.10/boot/grml64medium/initrd.gz /boot/grml/grml64-2009.10/boot/grml64medium/linux26
/dev/cciss/c0d0p1 is mounted to /boot in the running Debian system that I use to install the grml.
Exchanging toram=/grml/grml64-2009.10/live/grml64-medium.squashfs against toram=grml64-medium.squashfs doesn't work either.
What am I doing wrong here?
