New submission from Marc 'Zugschlus' Haber <mh+bts-grml at zugschlus.de>:

Hi,

when grml is started with
/grml-medium-20090123/boot/grmlmedium/linux26 
live-media-path=/grml-medium-20090123/live/ toram=grml-medium.squashfs 
boot=live scripts
the scripts are ignored as they are not copied over to the ram disk.

This feature is important when grml is used as a rescue system, the CD contents 
is copied to /grml in an ordinary linux filesystem and booted alternatively to 
the "real" system by group. If the system is located remote in a network where 
no dhcp server is present and does not have a serial console, a grml.sh script 
may be needed to properly initialize the network to allow access to the system.

"toram" without a file given on the command line works, but copies the entire 
root file system into ram which may not fit in all cases.
