Flashing
You can flash Grml onto an SD-Card using bmaptool and PGP verification using the following command:
sudo bmaptool copy --fingerprint 3AC6EB840FA5CE3FF31BAD80EF93221F8A44FEB2 --keyring /usr/share/keyrings/debian-keyring.gpg https://reform.debian.net/grml/reform-system-any.img /dev/mmcblkX
Make sure to replace /dev/mmcblkX with the name of your SD-Card device of your
computer. bmaptool
will make sure not to accidentally overwrite any drive
which is currently in use. For more guidance, see either directly below or the instructions about flashing.
Summary
Grml is a bootable live system based on Debian. Grml provides a selection of
software packages for installation, deployment and system rescue. The images
will boot on all MNT Reform platforms but are customized with extra
functionality for i.MX8MQ classic Reforms as those are the only platform
supporting X11 with a special Xorg.conf for etnaviv. This makes it possible to
start Fluxbox via grml-x
. The image comes with U-Boot for i.MX8MQ (which will
be ignored by the other platforms).
