grub cannot "boot ISO". What is possible is to access filesystem on ISO and load individual files. If loaded file can then access ISO image it is close enough to "boot from ISO image". > Can i find anywhere examples to boot an ISO with grub 2.02. > I don't understand the general structure how to specify the iso file on the > stick and initiate the loop to read and boot it? > > My most recent problem is to boot an freedos image to make an BIOS update. > When i look at the documentation there is no real hint how to do that? > http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#DOS_002fWindows > > An very special problem is to boot an iso image with an freedos in it that > has an bios updater. > That probably won't work without extra help. Loaded FreeDOS would need access to image as device, and this will require some resident driver to emulate access. There were reports that is works using Sylinux memdisk with Smart Boot Manager. They can be loaded by GRUB if needed. Almost identical question was discussed recently, you could search list archive for last couple of weeks for additional information. _______________________________________________ Help-grub mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-grub
