I've successfully booted grml-full 2018.12 and I have a few "newbie" questions:
At the grml-quickconfig panel that appears, I wanted to see some info about grml, so I pressed the "i" key (to "show some info about grml"). But I didn't get any info: the only thing that happened was that the grml-quickconfig panel was printed again. Is this a bug?
This is indeed a bug, thanks for information, I've reported this as https://github.com/grml/grml/issues/134
Virtual terminals 2, 3 and 4 all have a nice status bar at the bottom of the screen, but virtual terminals 1, 5 and 6 do not have this status bar. How can I get that same status bar on virtual terminals 1, 5 and 6?
This is GNU screen, just invoke `SHELL=/bin/zsh screen` to get that on terminals not running with screen yet.
How do I get tab completion working? (It doesn't appear to be working when I drop to a shell by pressing "q" at the grml-quickconfig panel). After much searching, I found a blog post (https://michael-prokop.at/blog/2008/12/19/mikas-advent-calendar-day-19-zsh-c...) which suggests entering "autoload -U compinit && compinit" but even if I enter that line, I still only get literal tab characters inserted at the command prompt.
I can't reproduce this and have never seen this behavior. What version are you running? grml64-full or grml32-full? In what environment are you booting it? On baremetal/physical system? In VM? In what kind of VM and with what interface (web/virt-manager/virtualbox/vnc/....)?
Is it possible to get a "UK" (United Kingdom) keyboard layout? (Entering "grml-lang", without any argument, prints a list of country codes that does not include "UK").
Would executing `loadkeys i386/qwerty/uk.kmap.gz` provide what you're looking for on the console? Does `setxkmap gb` provide what you need in a graphical environment (execute it in a xterm in X.org). If so, it should be easy to add support for that.
