If I do mind the boot from CD... then I must be able to copy the Knoppix ISO to a disk partition and boot it with Grub2 which will boot an ISO directly. I have used the 'tohd / fromhd' method in the past and its bullet proof, but it seems, today, that the Grub2 ISO boot would be nice. Any idea what kind of menu entry I would need to add to the Grub2 "40_custom" script to get it to work...?

Here's what I've tried but it gets stuck looking for a USB device

Code:
menuentry "Knoppix 2 ADRIANE V6.2.1 ISO (on /dev/sda1)" {
insmod ext2
set root=(hd0,1)
loopback loop (hd0,1)/Downloads_BACKUP/adriane-knoppix.iso
linux (loop)/boot/isolinux/linux iso_filename=/Downloads_BACKUP/adriane-knoppix.iso ramdisk_size=100000 lang=en vt.default_utf8=0 apm=power-off vga=788 xmodule=fbdev initrd=minirt.gz nomce quiet loglevel=0 tz=localtime
echo 'Loading initial ramdisk ...'
initrd (loop)/boot/isolinux/minirt.gz
}
Any ideas (or pointers about where to look) would be great! Thanks...
