ssh=password doesn't work

When the syslinux boot screen comes up, am I supposed to type "ssh=password" to start the ssh server? Or is it "grml ssh=password". I've tried both and neither seems to work. I am using grml-full_2014.11.iso.

Just "ssh=password", but did you press the tab key to be able to enter the "ssh=password"?

No, that was it. I didn't mention it in myoriginal message because I didn't think it was relevant but I'm blind. Turns out it was relevant. Soon as I got someone who could see in to help me, she saw that I had to press a tab and then I remembered. After that, it probably took me about 15 minutes to rescue the server.
Boy, did I feel stupid. Nobody's fault except my own. Although, like I said to someone else this weekend: Being blind isn't as bad as most people thing. However, I would not recommend it.

Yeah, I recalled about it, that's why I was asking. :)

No worries. :)

Did you hit tab before typing?
