grml-runtty used to fix most of the pre-systemd environment problems. It seems that it causes more troubles nowadays than it solved back then. First and foremost grml-runtty does not provide a (systemd) login session which prevents us from starting X reliably. Therefor replacing grml-runtty with agetty with autologin where a grml-shell is used so far. tty1 to tty4, where grml-runtty starts run-welcome (grml-quickconfig), two root- and a grml-GNU-screen session, should also be replaced with a proper systemd-unit. Relates to grml/grml#14 and grml/grml#20
