booting iso image having syslinux

2009-08-06 Thread J.Bakshi
Hello list, GRUB2 has a cool feature to boot .iso image. It is really a cool option as we can simply put the .iso and test it without making a cd. Some of the .iso has syslinux inbuilt. Like live .iso of gparted and dban. How can we manage those .iso ? We need to call the syslinux.cfg in those di
