Public bug reported:

I am able to boot ubuntu 13.04 desktop from DOK using following grub2
config:

menuentry "Ubuntu 13.04 Desktop amd64 ISO" {
 loopback loop /boot/ubuntu-13.04-desktop-amd64.iso
 linux (loop)/casper/vmlinuz.efi boot=casper 
iso-scan/filename=/boot/ubuntu-13.04-desktop-amd64.iso noeject noprompt splash 
--
 initrd (loop)/casper/initrd.lz
}

Ubuntu 13.04 server boots, but then fails to find CDROM image. If
manually mount the iso at /cdrom, I am able to skip the step and
continue the installation. (it fails later for a different reason, so I
am forced to use netinstall for now anyway)

menuentry "Ubuntu 13.04 Server amd64 ISO" {
 loopback loop /boot/ubuntu-13.04-server-amd64.iso
 linux (loop)/install/vmlinuz boot=casper 
iso-scan/filename=/boot/ubuntu-13.04-server-amd64.iso noeject noprompt splash --
 initrd (loop)/install/initrd.gz
}

Here is a working stanza for netinstall:

menuentry "Ubuntu 13.04 Server amd64 netboot" {
 loopback loop /boot/ubuntu-13.04-server-amd64.iso
 linux (loop)/install/netboot/ubuntu-installer/amd64/linux 
 initrd (loop)/install/netboot/ubuntu-installer/amd64/initrd.gz
}
