Well done! grml has been and will be an indispensable tool.

Here are the results of the Badenian jury for grml-small.

(1)
boots fine on Dell Server hardware that used to need the
mgag200.modeset=0 in the past. Cosmetic output issues are persent
(github issue #23).

(2)
boots fine on VMware

(3)
boots fine on KVM (with and without nodhcp)

(4)
boots fine on KVM with serial console (modulo #21)

(5)
boots fine from CD toram on Dell Server and KVM

(6)
boots fine via PXE to KVM (with and without serial console)

(7)
unfortunately, I botched up when booting an APU (forgot to start grml
with serial, therefore machine unaccessible and cannot reboot from
remote). I will report back if it doesn't work fine. my bad.

(8)
grml-rescueboot works fine (on KVM)

(9)
Zg-grml-boot (see
http://blog.zugschlus.de/archives/825-grml-als-eigenes-Rescuesystem.html)
works fine, up to the network script (on KVM)


Solid work! Thanks! Please release.

Grüße
Marc
