| + | ===== Bugs/Problems ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | You found a bug in the grml [[http://linuxtage.at/|GLT06]] release not yet mentioned on this page? [[http://grml.org/bugs/|Please report it!]] (Please don't forget to add your name and mailadress so we contact you if we have further questions.) | ||
| + | |||
| + | ==== losetup ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Due to problems with losetup on unionfs it is not possible to create a loop device with files on the live-cd _EXCEPT_ if the file is in /home/grml, /tmp or /ramdisk. You'll notice an error like 'ioctl: LOOP_SET_FD: Invalid argument' [mika] | ||
| + | * Notice: this is not a grml specific problem. See INSTALL file in unionfs sources: "If you want to use losetup, then you need to define -DSUPPORT_BROKEN_LOSETUP. You will be able to use it read-only, but when you try to use it read-write, you will get an Oops. This should eventually be fixed when we have our own address-space operations (so that we can support sendfile)." [mika] | ||
| + | |||
| + | ==== isolinux fails with 'Could not find kernel image: grml' ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Another warning you might get is 'Unknown keyword in config file'. Your BIOS seems to be broken. The problem has been [[http://syslinux.zytor.com/archives/2006-April/006784.html|reported to isolinux/syslinux upstream]]. Try to boot with 'linux26'. If this still does not work try to boot via [[http://btmgr.webframe.org/|btmgr]]. [Notice taken from [[problems|problems-webpage]]] [mika] | ||
| + | |||
| + | ==== some PCMCIA WLAN cards don't work out of the box ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Deprecated pcmcia-cs was removed with grml 0.6. Now pcmciautils is state-of-the-art. Some kernel drivers (like for example PCMCIA WLAN cards) are not autoloaded by default now. They should work anyway by loading the module manually. Run for example 'hwinfo --netcard' to figure out which network module has to be loaded. (Some more information regarding the device is available via 'udevinfo -a -p /sys/class/net/eth0/'). [mika] | ||
