Lethal Possum Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Hello, I am trying to make the following ISO images boot from a USB hard drive using GRUB 2: "Knoppix 6.0.1" KNOPPIX_V6.0.1CD-2009-02-08-EN.iso "BackTrack 4 Pre-final" bt4-pre-final.iso "System Rescue CD 1.2.3 i386" systemrescuecd-x86-1.2.3.iso "Kon-boot 1.1" konboot-v1.1-2in1.iso "Memtest x86 3.5" Memtest86_3.5.iso "DBAN i386 beta 2006042900" dban-beta.2006042900_i386.iso Did anyone succeed with any of these ISOs? For Knoppix, BackTrack, System Rescue CD, I tried a minimal menuentry similar to : menuentry "Knoppix 6.0.1" { loopback loop /boot/iso/KNOPPIX_V6.0.1CD-2009-02-08-EN.iso linux (loop)/boot/isolinux/linux -- initrd (loop)/boot/isolinux/minirt.gz } For Kon-boot, Memtest and DBAN I was not able to figure out the structure of the ISO and what to put on the Linux and initrd lines. Any suggestions? Cheers, LP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netshroud Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 You need the kernel parameters. If you open up the Isolinux config (which is what most of them use) you can find it pretty easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am still having some issues with Memtest and DBAN but hopefully I'll figure it out from here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jobe Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Thanks, it did help indeed. I am still having some issues with Memtest and DBAN but hopefully I'll figure it out from here. Can you please post the working configs, and add it to the google doc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
