Barry, try this.......

Sorry, no <path> at (loop)/isolinux/vmlinuz
So...
menuentry "PCLOS live iso" {
loopback loop (hd0,x)/<path>/pclinuxos-lxde-2010.1.iso
linux (loop)/isolinux/vmlinuz findiso=/<path>/pclinuxos-lxde-2010.1.iso

The message wrap is ah, so unreadable. Sorry.

Hi Goh
Since the .iso is in the root of sda1, the <path> is not actually needed.
I have tried many variations on this:-
menuentry 'PCLOS live iso' {
loopback loop (hd0,1)/pclinuxos-lxde-2010.1.iso
linux (loop)/isolinux/vmlinuz findiso=/pclinuxos-lxde-2010.1.iso
boot=isolinux quiet noeject noprompt
initrd (loop)/isolinux/initrd.gz
}
I changed to boot=boot, livecd=livecd, boot=livecd and the result is
always the same:-
ACPI: Aborted because no cpio magic.
Kernel panic - not syncing: No init found. Try passing init= option to
kernel.
I tried adding noacpi but no change.
With the findiso= the initrd won't boot - without it it runs and gets as
far as detecting all hardware, then searches all devices for the "loop
image" by which I am guessing it means livecd.sqfs ?
I tried livecd=(loop)/livecd but no change.
I have only 1GB ram - just a thought.

Yes - I did say "Off topic" that is another issue. It happens if I try
to use the motherboard SATA controllers (nforce3). I have no problems at
all using a PCI Silicon Image SATA card with the grub.cfg I paste binned
earlier. Forget that issue for now!
