Title: Jessie ISO booting with grub1
Post by: Dualityonme on February 14, 2016, 06:32:09 AM
I had tried 'dd bs=4M if=dCoreJessie.iso of=/dev/sdc3' before editing menu.lst of grub partition,So how can I possibly boot from ISO using grub(not 2nd one)?? :o :o

original dCorePlus-jessie.iso i got from forum has isolinux.bin that points to syslinux, so i should try that instead of grub. :D Cheesy

Is this a USB device?  More info is needed.

That being said, I will try to make this happen with dCore as I want to eliminate the barriers of entry for those coming to dCore from other distros.

nope,just grub mounting iso in a loop ;) At least that's what i think it occasionally does.
