I'm the author of the El Torito (and extended floppy formats) patches (not applied yet to the official CVS) but if you (Robert) are refering to these patches, this allows to use GRUB on an El Torito CD, to boot in floppy emulation or hard disk emulation but GRUB doesn't deal with iso9660: one puts on the emulation (floppy or hd) a filesystem at the moment supported by GRUB. That's the El Torito compliant BIOS that deals with some aspects of the iso9660 to find the bootable entries. So whatever image in 1.20, 1.44, 2.88 or HD emulation will be fine: no need to install an iso9660 filesystem on them!
