Here's an example to launch an iso of gpartedlivecd from Grub2. I always
add it on my 40_custom file :
menuentry "ISO Live - GParted Live" {
insmod loopback
insmod iso9660
set isofile="/iso/gparted-live-0.5.2-1.iso"
loopback loop (hd0,5)$isofile
set gfxpayload=800x600x16, 800x600
linux (loop)/live/vmlinuz locale=fr_FR keyb=fr console-setup/layoutcode=fr
gl_kbd=fr gl_lang=fr_FR gl_numlk=off gl_batch boot=live union=aufs noswap
noprompt ip=frommedia toram=filesystem.squashfs findiso=$isofile
initrd (loop)/live/initrd.img
}
There are others examples on this page :
http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/tutoriel/grub2_lancer_des_images_iso
You can use the soft here : http://liveusb.info/ to launch one or more
iso(s) from an USB key.
In short, Grub2 have made a great job yet.. Now to spread it, it depends
on linux distributions to implement it in their isos.

People,
I started this thread quite a while ago (I have asked LQ why it has
another user's name on it):
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/booting-of-raw-iso-from-grub-lilo-though-preferably-grub-367901/
but haven't ever gotten a workable response. I realise that ISOs from
different distros are set up differently but is it a
feasible/desirable feature to think about for GRUB2?
Thanks,
Phil.
