You can also boot grml_iso from HD without grml_CD.
Condition: you must have a linux partition with grub as linux loader on your HD.

Here is a way to do so:
1-copy grml_iso to a partition on HD: (hda5 as example).
              grml tohd=/dev/hda5

2-reboot to your linux box.(my / is on /dev/hda5).

3-create  grml  directory  in  /boot of your linux partition : as root
              mkdir /boot/grml

4-copy the files "linux26" and "minirt26.gz" from grml_CD/boot/isolinux to /boot/grml

5-edit  /boot/grub/menu.lst to add entry for grml.
here is as example the entry of grml in my /boot/grub/menu.lst

         # this entry boot grml from iso_image  on /dev/hda5
         title   Grml
                root  (hd0,4)
kernel /boot/grml/linux26 fromhd=/dev/hda5 lang=fr vga=797 ramdisk=100000
                initrd  /boot/grml/minirt26.gz

6-it's all. reboot and pick Grml at grub menu.

Thanks Grml team for the great work.
