Hmm, one solution is adjusting the modules of the image to match the
installed version of isolinux of the distribution. The other option
would be to ship the matching isolinux version with the grml2usb
package.

But I see a problem with this, if you want to support a lot of GRML
images and not only the most recent one ...

So what is the problem with non-Debian distros? Unresolved dependencies
to syslinux-common and maybe differing locations of the modules?
