Details:
I am trying to boot from an iso that resides on a USB drive (FAT32
formatted), using the following config:
----------------------------------------
menuentry 'GRML' {
iso_path=/iso/grml_2010.04.iso
export iso_path
loopback loop $iso_path
set root=(loop)
configfile /boot/grub/grub.cfg
}
----------------------------------------
Selecting the entry causes the machine to reboot.
When I enter the commands on the grub commandline, it reboots at
"set root=(loop)".
Using "configfile (loop)/boot/grub/grub.cfg" correctly shows the
corresponding boot menu but, of course, without changing the root, all paths
referenced in this file won't work.
