Thread: Grub2 mount windows iso

is there way mount windows-xp.iso image grub2 not have burn cd?

know burning cd not cost, thought mounting images grub great, crashed on first round.
after tries, discovered examples found mounting linux images, not windows images. there restriction?

last entry in /etc/grub.d/35_windows_iso as:

code:

#! /bin/sh -e  cat << eof  menuentry "windows iso" {  loopback loop (hd0,1)/soseg.iso  chainloader (loop)  }

and after sudo update-grub, reboot, , there new line in grub menu, says no such file '' when entering.

perhaps can linux images, have not found saying so...

sorry, have not explained first attempt:

code:

#! /bin/sh -e  cat << eof  menuentry "windows iso" {  set root=(hd0,1)  loopback loop /soseg.iso  linux (loop)/casper/vmlinuz boot=casper iso-scan/filename=/soseg.iso  initrd (loop)/casper/initrd.lz  }

and says: have load kernel first
