I diagnosed problem - it was vga=791 kernel option

I am booting physical and virtual machines from LAN using iPXE:

  set url http://10.146.146.22/pub/Linux/GRML/2013.09		# mount point of iso
  kernel ${url}/boot/grml64full/vmlinuz  fetch=${url}/live/grml64-full.squashfs boot=live \
    apm=power-off nomce noprompt noeject vga=791 tz=Europe/Warsaw lang=pl
  initrd ${url}/boot/grml64full/initrd.img
  boot

without vga= all is OK.

I have another (old) problem with Logitech USB Unifying receiver (connects kbd+mouse)
It is not working. The same under Debian Live 7.0.0 so it is not GRLM specific.
Any clue ?

regards,
-a
PS
Any url/example how to generate and use encpasswd= ?
