Great. Which version are you talking about?

Ah, it *might* be that it does not work if you are using grml
1.1-rc*/grml64 0.2-rc*/grml[64]-medium 0.1-rc*, see
http://bts.grml.org/grml/issue414

But when booting from USB that's easy to fix: just edit the APPEND
lines of boot/isolinux/syslinux.cfg on your usb stick, that's it. :)
