How to get grub to launch isolinux/syslinux boot menu.
Hello,
I'm trying to get a multi-boot setup going for a USB.
I have different vfat-32 partitions I have copied ISOs of several linux distros.
The first one I installed using unetbootin, which works great and uses syslinux, but syslinux can't boot other partitions. So, I have grub installed.
I have gotten so far as to be able to get the grub menu up, but trying to load the partition's isolinux (which is how the Linux Mint LDXE distro boots) gives me an grub error 13.
Here is my menu.1st:
Not exactly sure what to call for the kernel.
I have also tried the isolinux.bin, but still get the grub error 13.
Can anyone help me figure how to get grub to boot an isolinux menu?
Here is the listing of the /isolinux directory:
And the /boot/grub/:
Thanks,
Narnie
