a while ago i bought one of the nice 32/64bit dual usb keys and since it

i would like to update it, but i haven't found a procedure in the wiki
or anywhere else...and i would like to avoid having to do to much
reading of docs and/or doing it by trial and error the hard way.
can anybody point me in the right direction?
Same question I wanted to ask since 2010.12 came out (as I also have
one of these shiny grml.org usb-keys with 2010.04~rc-something on it).
After searching the grml-wiki (after your trigger - thx!) I found
this:
[1] http://wiki.grml.org/doku.php?id=usbs=usb
[2] http://grml.org/grml2usb/
So it seems that downloading both ISOs (32bit/64bit) and
% grml2usb ${GRML64BIT_ISO} ${GRML32BIT_ISO} ${USBDEVICE_PARTITION}
should do the trick. The usb-stick should be partitioned and formatted
mit fat16 (or you can use the --fat16 option).
According to [3] everything else[tm] (e.g. memtest, freedos) should be
on the stick automatically.

Please be aware that I have not tested it (yet). Please tell me if
that worked! (Or if anyone knows better, let me know.)

Re: [Grml] How to setup Xorg keyboard layout ?

Variants of keyboard layouts (currently) does not seem to be implemented: [1] http://qr.cx/J1ri One need to add a new bootoption (e.g. xkeyvariant) and introduce a new variable (e.g. XKEYVARIANT) in '/etc/grml/autoconfig.functions' to write this into '/etc/sysconfig/keyboard'. After that this variable needs to be parsed by 'grml_keyboard' in '$HOME/.xinitrc.d' resp. '/etc/skel/.xinitrc.d'. With these changes it should be possible to set xkeyboard=fr xkeyvariant=bepo. I've attached two (untested) patches (against the files in grml 2011.05) to get an idea. Maybe it can be helpful or even useful.. ;) Thanks for your quick reply ! I don't know well grml yet, only tested the ISO, so I don't know what to do with your patches yet :-) Perhaps it could be simpler to add a new choice in the console menu proposing different keyboard layouts ?
