Follow-up Comment #1, bug #55118 (project grub):
Hi,
> linux (xyz)/syslinux/isolinux.bin
This is the SYSLINUX/ISOLINUX boot image for El Torito. Isn't that a
use case for chain loading rather than for OS start by "linux" ?
https://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub/html_node/Chain_002dloading.html
https://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub/html_node/GNU_002fLinux.html#GNU_002fLinux
But i somewhat doubt that isolinux.bin will work with a loopback device
from GRUB. Further, to properly start an operating system, it would need
a SYSLINUX menu definition, not a definition for GRUB.
Have a nice day :)
Thomas
