Not all ISO files detected #3

Closed JonnyTech closed 2 years ago

Is it possible to boot undetected files such as a Windows 10 installation ISO? After placing it in the ISOs folder, only some Linux ISO's are detected and displayed. Is it a case of making a config file for the missing images or can I force GRUB to display all files found?

Aha, I found the instructions for Windows 10: https://github.com/Mexit/MultiOS-USB/blob/master/config/win10_winPE/windows_support.md

How about other, non-dectected ISOs?

Also have one that shows message that it cannot start in loopback mode: Supet Grub2 Disk

Not yet. It is not that simple and it requires a lot of work.

That is correct.

can I force GRUB to display all files found?

This does not make sense. Displaying the ISO name in the GRUB list is not enough. Read above.

There are 2 possibilities. The first is "temporary" as it may not work with a newer version.

Super Grub2 Disk has similar functionality to MultiOS-USB. This is probably why. As far as I can see, it is no longer being developed. Theoretically you can load the sgd/main.cfg file and it should work.

I have not figured out how to make an ISO load a configuration file. Do you have a newbie tutorial?

Mexit commented 2 years ago

Grub loads the configuration file from the ISO. Menu example

I don't, just the internet and analysis of ISO images.
