Dear ILUGC,
I have a few ISO images of various GNU/Linux and BSD installer CDs
(minimal). I was wondering whether I could use GRUB to boot them from
my existing GNU/Linux system, avoiding the need to burn them onto a CD
to start the installation procedure. Is there a way to do this?
Definitely possible, I have installed that way many times.
The procedure is like this:
1. loop mount the iso image and copy the kernel, ramdisk image, and the
modules to some partition accessible from grub.
