  1. Hey I am trying to boot an ISO using the grub by following the steps in the following link: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1599293
  2.  
  3. It's a guide on how to boot an ubuntu-desktop-image from the grub2-menu.
  4.  
  5. What I'm trying to do is follow these steps but instead of using an ubuntu-desktop-image I'm use an ubuntu-server-image.
  6.  
  7. Because the content of the Ubuntu-server-iso is different from the content of the ubuntu-desktop-iso the paths for initrd and vmlinuz are different.
  8.  
  9.  
  10. What I've done so far is:
  11. ################################################################################################################################################################################################
  12.  
  13. set prefix=(hd0,msdos1)/boot/grub
  14.  
  15. insmod linux
  16. insmod iso9660
  17. insmod loopback
  18.  
  19. loopback loop (hd0,msdos1)/ubuntu-12.04.1-server-amd64.iso
  20.  
  21. set root=(loop)
  22.  
  23. linux /install/vmlinuz boot=vmlinuz iso-scan/filename=/ubuntu-12.04.1-server-amd64.iso -noprompt -noeject
  24.  
  25. initrd /install/initrd.gz
  26.  
  27. boot
  28.  
  29. ################################################################################################################################################################################################
  30.  
  31. The commands doesn't not give any kind of errors. When I hit the last command, boot, it just gives me an empty line. As if it is trying to load something but failing.
  32. Any ideas on what the problem may be? Thanks in advance.
