I've been hacking on the GCT (an old Internet Appliance) with its Compact flash drive in the last couple of weeks and with that using a FAT partition and SYSLINUX has worked sort of. (Puppy Linux will load but I still haven't gotten DSL to load correctly.) This might be an option since ISOLINUX and SYSLINUX are essentially the same. You might be able to chain load the SYSLINUX partition from Grub. Just some stray thoughts. I'm sure others will come up with a reason or two why it won't work. ;-) Jack -- Jack Ungerleider The Ungerleider Group jack at jacku.com http://www.jacku.com
