I can see us releasing a single ISO, with a 32bit userland and kernels for 64bit and 32bit for maybe the next or next-next release. Ulrich is pushing hard for this, and (while I don't necessarily like it) I think that's the correct way forward for the time being (read: as long as i386 still lives). > I realise, that grml96 may contain a completely different set of > packages then the single-arch package.

(As others have pointed out, grml96 is basically the result of a grml2usb/grml2iso call.) -ch -- christian hofstaedtler _______________________________________________ Grml mailing list - [email protected] http://ml.grml.org/mailman/listinfo/grml join #grml on irc.freenode.org grml-devel-blog: http://blog.grml.org/
