Hi there,

the 64bit version from the grml96-iso (`dd`ed onto a USB-stick) boots fine on Dell Precission T3400, T3500, T3600 with the default-boot-entry with added parameters "toram" and "nonetworking".

On a Lenovo X230 this combination gets stuck* after copying everything to RAM, but the 64bit debug-entry boots fine (and `rsync`ed 120gigs of data from internal SSD to a USB3-disk w/o any problems). I guess I didn't try default 64bit w/o adding "toram nonetworking"...

On a Dell Precission T1500 64bit default + "toram nonetworking" also gets stuck* after copying everything to RAM, but works fine without those added parameters.

I've attached the output from `lspci` from the T1500 (in case you guys know some HW like USB-ctrlers which cause trouble). `lshw` currently hangs on SCSI as I'm running `hdparm --sercurity-erase` on the disks right now and they won't response to anything until they're done.

I don't have the X230 at hand but can ask its user for the output of `lspci`, `lshw` and friends as it's running Ubuntu 12.04.

*) "gets stuck" as in "can't even toggle num-lock anymore or use magic SysRq to reboot".

Regards, Florian

Hi,

so we did it again, the first release candidate of the upcoming Grml version 2013.09, code-named 'Hefeknuddler' was released.

This Grml release provides fresh software packages after the Debian stable release (AKA wheezy) has been released. As usual it also incorporates up2date hardware support and fixes known bugs from the previous Grml release.

For detailed information about the changes between 2013.02 and 2013.09 have a look at the official release announcement:

http://grml.org/changelogs/README-grml-2013.09-rc1/

Please test the ISOs and everything you usually use and report back so we can complete the stable release soon. If no major problems come up, the next iteration will be the stable release, which is scheduled for the end of September.

Thanks!

On a lenovo s10-3c netbook (which has a buggy BIOS), booting locks the keyboard unless the kernel options 'noapic acpi=off' are passed as a workaround. I don't seem to be able to pass them in a previous version of grml. Is it possible now? Sorry I can't test it right now as I don't have the netbook with me at the moment.
