Thanks a lot for keeping grml alive for so long! I´ve started using it around 2006. I still am using it.
It does not get in your way if you need to save the day really fast, but has all the bells and whistles somewhere, if you need them.

grml, the sysop powerhouse standing on Debian's giant shoulders, is my go-to distro for diagnosing/fixing all kinds of broken computery things for what has been much more than a decade. Be it hardware/hosts that are acting up, or broken GNU/Linux installations of all kinds - grml offers all the tools that can help make things right again (or at least arrive at the definite conclusion that stuff is FUBAR ;)).
We've recently started using its commercial sister project, grml-forensic (https://grml-forensic.org/) at work, and my colleagues in forensics love it!
I highly recommend everything the grml devs touch :)

I have Grml on a USB stick, in case I need it. I chose to have it many years ago because Grml, unlike most live images, included a compiler. But the latest release was from November 2022, which is worrying.

I learned about GRML only a few years ago. Absolutely love the mixture of power and minimalism. Here is the only ISO which increases my mileage even more: https://netboot.xyz
These are the resources Which are quietly there for when you need them, surprising with their fitness for purpose.

How does it compare to system rescue cd?
