Well, for me the choice is easy. Since I use grml mostly as an emergency
boot system, I do not need LaTeX. And when I use grml as a regular
working base, I can install LaTeX via some installation sources quite
quickly.

Of course you can build a "grml-big" (grmbl :-)) version of grml with
all those things some users would like to add to grml ;-). Or build a
"personal grml" via web interface - the grml base plus checkboxes for
umpty application packages :-)

Regards,
Werner
