I just tried grml2hd from grml0.8 with:
grml2hd partion=/dev/sda4 mbr=/dev/sda4 filesystem=ext3 user=tong
You are using this from the booting command line (isolinux prompt), right?
- grml2hd said partion /dev/sda4 can't be found. Manually choose the sda4
from the provided menu entry works fine.
I assume you did provide "partition" and not "partion" as bootoption, right? What's inside /etc/grml2hd/config on your system when booting with "grml2hd ..."?
- "user=" parameter didn't work. grml2hd still prompts 'grml' as the
default user. The mbr & filesystem parameter seem to be working fine.
Huh, strange. Ok, I'll check that. Thanks.
- Since I don't have network access (due to no eth0), I run grml2hd as-is,
ie, without using the latest version. But it failed to create initrd, because it can't find the grml kernel module file, IIRC.
"grml kernel module file" - hm?! Please provide the error message you get when creating the initrd. In case you don't have that one any more manually invoke:
# update-initramfs -u -t -k $(uname -r)
- Installing lilo failed subsequently, because it can't find the initrd.
Sure. If you don't need an initrd just drop the initrd line in /etc/lilo.conf and rerun lilo manually.
