This works here as expected, just checked it again. But I think I
found the reason for your problem.¹

No, definitely works too.¹

¹ I think you are using grml2hd wrong. "grml2hd partion=/dev/sda4
mbr=/dev/sda4 filesystem=ext3 user=tong" is what you would have to
use at the boot prompt for automatic installation (if you really
know what you are doing, please read the docs) and not at the shell
command line. Please read the documentation, to manually install
grml via grml2hd just invoke grml2hd without any further options.
