Repost:

I have the following in my /etc/grml/grml-live.local

-----------------------------------------
$ grep -1 OUTPUT /etc/grml/grml-live.local
# Skip download of pageant, plink, pscp, psftp, putty and puttygen
# using wget to store it inside $BUILD_OUTPUT/windows/?
NO_WINDOWS_BINARIES="1"
--
# Main output directory
OUTPUT="/dev/shm/gl" # mount -o remount,suid,dev,rw /dev/shm

# Where do want to find the chroot of the buildprocess files?
# CHROOT_OUTPUT="$OUTPUT/grml_chroot"
# Where do you want to find the compressed chroot, bootstuff,...?
# BUILD_OUTPUT="$OUTPUT/grml_cd"
# Where do you want to find the final ISO?
ISO_OUTPUT="/lfs/cache12/systems/distros"
-----------------------------------------

and I invoked grml-live as

% rm /dev/shm/gl/grml_isos/depen64.iso
% grml-live -a $ARCH -c $CLASSES -g $USE_NAME

However, the iso is still generated at /dev/shm/gl/grml_isos/depen64.iso.

-----------------------------------------
% grml-live -a $ARCH -c $CLASSES -g $USE_NAME

Is this ok for you? [y/N] ^C

2nd, I found that the DISTRI_INFO variable might have no effect as well (fine
with me if you can't duplicate the problem).

Thanks
