Reported by Michael Gissing on the grml user mailinglist:
I'm using grml2usb (0.9.25) from grml repo on a Debian Squeeze system. grml2usb
fails with the message
Installing syslinux as bootloader
sh: mcopy: not found
syslinux: failed to create ldlinux.sys
That's because syslinux package in Debian Squezze just 'suggests' mtools·
package. I filed a Bug in Debian BTS requesting syslinux at least to·
recommend mtools package but it was closed... (Bug#594331 [1])
Maybe grml2usb could catch this error and give a more user friendly explanation
why the command failed.
