I want to try booting ISO with Another Kernel outside ISO.ie vmlinuz,initrd.gz extracted from a working installation and make grub2 to use this kernel to boot as well as continue the ISO loop mounted, to Boot.
Currently,below is the menuentry on grub2:
^^^^ How Can I make Another Kernel to Boot For this Debian ISO?Code:menuentry "Debian ISO on /dev/sdb7" { insmod ext2 set root=(hd0,7) loopback loop /debian-testing-amd64-netinst.iso linux (loop)/install.amd/vmlinuz boot=install.amd iso-scan/filename=/debian-testing-amd64-netinst.iso noeject noprompt -- initrd (loop)/install.amd/initrd.gz }
Thank You

I think you could add the kernel to the iso file. then just change it accordingly in your grub menu.
