Ok, thanks for rechecking! Let's investigate on issue520 :)

thanks && regards,
-mika-

Sorry, now the mount part works, I don't know what was wrong (multiple
times).
It remains the problem with `file=foobar.tbz' (issue 520):
it seems that is required a particular label, but I want to use a
partition
that has already another label for other uses.
See attachment, if you want.

Regards,
Diego

  No, should work with any filesystem the kernel is able to handle.
  We're just executing:

  mount -o ro -t auto $MOUNTDEVICE /mnt/grml

  where $MOUNTDEVICE is the given option to myconfig.

  Do you see:

  "Could not mount /dev/xyz to /mnt/grml - sorry."

  while booting? If so does manually executing the above mount command
  work for you?

  thx && regards,

I can only point to a partition using FAT?
If so, say that on `grml-cheatcodes.txt'.
