AFAIK, grml uses file-rc instead of sys-rc, so better use update-rc.d to make sure that it can launch at boot. check the steps at http://xpt.sourceforge.net/techdocs/nix/virtual/vmware/vm03-VmwareInstallation/ar01s02.html#grml_speicific_configuration -- Tong (remove underscore(s) to reply) http://xpt.sourceforge.net/techdocs/ http://xpt.sourceforge.net/tools/ ___ Grml mailing list - Grml@mur.at http://lists.mur.at/mailman/listinfo/grml join #grml on irc.freenode.org grml-devel-blog: http://grml.supersized.org/

The new grml2usb script (rewritten from scratch, in python) provides multi-iso support, support for grub1/grub2 as well as syslinux as bootloaders, provides improved MBR handling,...

Yes. grml-network IIRC. > I have an Internet domain that I want GRML to be able to resolve to an > IP address, or at least realize that the domain exists. You should have a Nameserver for your domain, so that should have nothing to do with grml. Or am I missing anything? > What happens in grml if I add to resolv.conf: > search "domain.org" without quotations, (assuming) that domain.org existed? AFAIK this will only add a domain.org to any non-fully-qualified hostnames.

You unpack the tar (to /opt/vmware), and then run vmware-install.pl, which copies the files to the right places /usr/lib/vmware/, /etc/vmware/, /etc/init.d/...). So basically I would say the procedure is the same as with any other linux distribution. > I also hope, that I will be able to simply do an grml-x gnome and have > gnome launch directly and then run VMware workstation. Gnome should have any kind of autostart. Regards, OJ -- The day Microsoft makes something that doesn't suck is probably the day they start making vacuum cleaners.
