Tagging with won't fix for now. Should be fixed with the new implementation of
grml2usb later on.

Sure - due to wrong usage, as stated in manpage:

|  <path-to-the-mountpoint>
| This option specifies the mountpoint for your usb device, using the
| setup in /etc/fstab.
           ^^^^^^^^^^

Patches welcome, but I won't change this behaviour for current
grml2usb because I'm working on the redesign (fresh implementation
with different semantics) of grml2usb already.

running syslinux manual on the devices works without problems.

# syslinux /dev/sda1
#

grml2usb doesn't find /mnt/tmp -> /dev/sda1 and calls syslinux without device.

# mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/tmp
# grml2usb grml64-medium_2008.11.iso /mnt/tmp
grml2usb 0.9.1 - install grml-system to usb-device
