Special Information

Grml is an operating system based on Debian.

It is primarily designed to run from a Live CD, but can be made to run from a USB flash drive, as well.

Grml aims to be well-suited for sysadmins and other users of text tools.

It includes an X server along with a few minimalist window managers such as wmii, fluxbox, and openbox in order to use the graphical programs like Mozilla Firefox which are included in the distribution.
