Huh?! grml provides a dialog for building an initrd within grml2hd.
Booting from USB should work stright forward, with grml2hd for hd
installations and grml2usb for grml in live-cd mode on usb devices.

,---- [ % grml-tips initramfs ]
| Install initrd via initramfs-tools for currently running kernel:
|
| # update-initramfs -u -t -k $(uname -r)
