[Grml] Starting ssh server

[John G. Heim]

I got it to work. I used my iphone with an app called SeeingAI to read 
the screen to me. So then I knew when the boot menu came up. After only 
a couple of attempts, i found that if I hit the tab key, then typed 
'ssh=password', it worked.

I think the problem I was having was probably not starting to type at 
the right time -- either too early or too late. I wasn't really sure if 
i had to press tab and then type or just type. So not knowing exactly 
when to type and not knowing exactly what to type, I couldn't get it to 
work. But once I figured it out, it works fine.
