If you are using the commonly used GRUB2, then consider yourself lucky:

Boot an ISO via Grub2
http://michael-prokop.at/blog/2009/05/25/boot-an-iso-via-grub2/

loopback loop (hd0,1)/grml/grml-small_2008.11.iso
linux    (loop)/boot/grmlsmall/linux26 isofrom=/dev/sda1/grml/grml-
small_2008.11.iso boot=live quiet vga=791 noeject noprompt 
initrd   (loop)/boot/grmlsmall/initrd.gz
boot

Just an idea. adjust to your case.
