Hi,
Is it a good idea to put Grml's version in /etc/issue?
I have a bunch of Grml test installations in my VMware disks, and I've forgot which is which now. That's why I'm wondering...

Yes.

PS: Some day, I will actually get around to making an official proposal to LSB that every distro needs an /etc/version which nicely encodes all relevant information. Until then, /etc/issue is nice :)

Hm, very nice idea.
JFTR: It's in our BTS now: http://bts.grml.org/grml/issue423
JFYI: /etc/grml_version always contains exact information about the grml version. If you run 'grml-version' it's nothing else then a simple "cat /etc/grml_version". :)
