i have installed grml successfully on my cf card. i'm searching a way how to write my new configurations and files on the disk. i've found a way how to sync an unionfs with the originaly readonly mounted directory... but i'm a bit confused. i don't now how it should look like in the grml debian derivate.

JFYI: If it's just configuration files and stuff inside $HOME you could use grml-saveconfig too, but your approach looks nice. :)

here is the original debian wrap script:

#!/bin/bash # halt-wrap mount -o remount rw /OLD_ROOT/real_root rsync --delete -abRvz --exclude "/sys" --exclude "/proc" --exclude "/dev" --exclude "/OLD_ROOT" / /OLD_ROOT/real_root/ halt

should i copy this script in /usr/sbin or put it in /etc/init.d/ and modifier the /etc/rc.conf ( or something i don't remember anymore... because i'm using the symlinking stuff )??

If you are using grml in live-mode (which you seem to do :)) you can use for example the configuration framework with grml.sh. Just place a grml.sh script on your device and check out the possibilities you have in the docs: http://grml.org/config/grml-config.html

If you have any further questions don't hesitate to ask. :)

JFYI: http://grml.org/faq/#init -> you mean /etc/runlevel.conf - but notice that adjusting runlevel.conf usually does not work as intented unless you are re-reading the file using 'telinit q'. ;)
