• When booting grml inside qemu does not work please try booting with 'grml noapic', if that still fails try booting with 'failsafe'.

• grml does not boot on Virtual PC 2007 (for Windows). You have to boot either using “failsafe noreplace-paravirt” or “nofb noudev noreplace-paravirt”. Report and solution by Michael Schierl.

• When selecting the 'grml-small2ram' bootoption it fails with: “Target Filesystem doesn't have /sbin/init. /init: line 233: 6: Bad file descriptor”. Bug reported by Wernfried Haas and Frank Prochnow. Fixed with grml2usb 0.9.7. Fix:
  • either upgrade to grml2usb 0.9.7, or
  • use 'grml toram=grml-small.squashfs' on the bootprompt
