It has been installed using one of the earliest versions of grml2hd (the program for installing grml to harddisk). Now it was time to install grml on my main developing machine: my laptop. That's the box where I'm doing my main work on grml. Steps:
That's it. It took not even 30 minutes to get a running and working Linux. Thursday, April 21. 2005grml zsh refcardThe grml-zsh-refcard (PDF, 24k) is available on grml.org/zsh/. This file documents aliases, functions and settings of zsh on the grml system. Thanks a lot to Julius Plenz for writing it! Thursday, April 21. 2005grml devel release 0.3-4
grml.superRelease 0.3-4 is available for grml developers and beta-testers. All the work of the last two weeks has been integrated. Two brand new features are: * xsay: run 'grml-x wmi', select some text via mouse and press 'ctrl-alt-v' - you will hear the text as sound. (German speaking people can get more information via my personal blog). BTW: % grml-version Saturday, April 9. 2005

Comments (0) Trackbacks (0) change language defaults on grmlsed -i 's#init=/etc/init lang=us#init=/etc/init lang=de#' grml_0.3.iso That's all you have to do if you don't want to manually set bootoption 'grml lang=de'. :-) Notice: Please verify md5sum of ISO (not just the ISO itself but also the CD-ROM via booting with 'grml testcd') before modifiying the ISO because the modification breaks the md5sum of course. ;-) Friday, April 8. 2005status report - grml 0.3-3Develrelease grml 0.3-3 is available for grml-developers and beta-testers since monday. In the last few days I fixed the reported bugs. I think I'll drop vesafb-tng because there have been more problems than benefits with it. Now I'm working on improving the bootup sequence, checking bootoptions and some more misc stuff. Saturday, April 2. 2005
