Description: 
 grml2usb   - install grml system / ISO to usb device
Changes: 
 grml2usb (0.9.8) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Support installation on /dev/loop*-devices.
   * Generate configuration for syslinux and grub by default, no
     matter which bootloader the users chooses.
   * Added options --skip-syslinux-config and --skip-grub-config
     if someone wants to skip the generation of any bootloader
     configuration files.
   * Make sure grub-install is available before executing it.
   * Display information about default grml flavour and the other
     available grml flavours at the end of the grml2usb run.
   * Use /sbin/blkid (e2fsprogs) instead of vol_id as vol_id is going to be
     removed from udev. Thanks for the patch to Andras Korn!
   * Use rsync instead of cp. Thanks for the patch to Andras Korn!
     [Closes: issue683]
   * Use 'forensic' and 'readonly' in the forensic bootoption itself.
   * Spelling fixes (thanks to Thorsten Glaser <tg at mirbsd.org>).
   * Write GRUB2 config even if the target is a directory (thanks, Thorsten)
   * All these "set root=" are not needed for GRUB2 (thanks, Thorsten)
   * Switch order of check whether the specified device is a directory
     and check for usb device (as the usb device check will fail if
     it's a directory).
   * Add grml2iso for creating a bootable DVD:
     - thanks once more to Thorsten Glaser for helping and patches
     - thanks to Ernesto Domato for reporting the issue regarding
       i386<->amd64 with grub-mkimage
   * Move syslinux check to install_syslinux_mbr()
   * Drop the reference to --grub option (thanks for the bugreport
     to Peter Palfrader)
   * Update documentation:
     - mention the dd approach
     - mention grml2iso
     - improve section link names for the online version
     - add 'grub-probe: error: unknown filesystem'
   * Support use with python version 2.4.
   * Bump Standard Version to 3.8.2 (no further changes).
   * Depend on debhelper >=5 (using compat version 5).
