Boot grml without CD ends with "No init found"
Hello
I have a Proliant DL380G3 that I would like to boot without a CD. The instructions (http://wiki.grml.org/doku.php?id=tips&s=tohd#boot_grml_without_cd) seem clear enough, but alas I'm not successful yet.
From the grml cdrom grub screen I can "grml noeject fromhd=/dev/cciss/c0d0p3" and boot successfully. From the grub screen on /dev/cciss/c0d0 I'm not so successful. Soon after displaying the "GRML" ASCII art I get the nasty error: "No init found. Try passing init= bootarg." and a busybox prompt, not a grml prompt. Maybe the initrd borked?
Any help with achieving a grml prompt would be appreciated.
Regards
Fog_Watch.

Please consider using grml-rescueboot. You just have to place an iso image in /boot/grml and run update-grub afterwards and everything will be setup auomtatically.

Ok, just a guess, add boot=live ignore_bootid to the parameters.

This is an old version. Please consider switching to Grml 2011.05
