Booting ISO's with MEMDISK 
================
Source  by jaclaz

Now that netbooks without floppy/CD/DVD drives are so popular it's important to be able to boot from USB sticks. In the past I've had a few minor problems with Grub4DOS 0.4.2 and 0.4.3 but 0.4.4 2008-11-19 seems much better. 

The mapping of ISO images to (hd32) is a powerful facility that I've tested with both an Acronis Trueimage 9 Recovery CD and the Ultimate Boot CD 4.1.1 without any problems whatsoever. The essential code fragment is simply

title Ultimate Boot CD
map /images/ubcd411.iso (hd32)
map --hook
chainloader (hd32)

and a similar set of commands for Acronis. Alternatively the following code works equally well.

title Acronis Trueimage

kernel /acronis/kernel.dat vga=791 ramdisk_size=32768 quiet

initrd /ramdisk.dat /s

Of course it's possible that there could still be hidden problems which my (limited) testing hasn't revealed, but I'm using 4 different sticks ranging in size from 512mb to 4gb, all formatted as FAT32 with the HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool based on DOS 7.10 system files (ie the Windows 98SE ones). They also boot XP, Vista, Ubuntu, BartPE, and DOS itself for using Partition Magic outside of Windows. So far I've yet to find anything that Grub4DOS can't boot, but a serious weak spot has always been its documentation. In this respect Diddy's recent tutorial is a very welcome arrival.
Hopefully this post may save a few people some time and effort

EDIT by jaclaz
Second way does not work with newish releases, see here:
With the recent newish builds, the INITRD command does not accept command-line switches any longer. You will have to write it this way:

title Acronis Trueimage
kernel /acronis/kernel.dat vga=791 ramdisk_size=32768 quiet
initrd /ramdisk.dat

=========================
Acronis True Image 10/Disk Director 10.
Use Bootable Rescue Media Builder to build the ISO. Name it acronis10.iso, copy it wherever you want.
Menu.lst for it:

title Acronis media
find --set-root /acronis10.iso
map /acronis10.iso (hd32)
map --hook
root (hd32)
chainloader (hd32)

Paragon HD manager 8.0 Special Edition. This is still available with a free registration:
http://www.vnudownlo...203-0000-en.exe
http://registry.para...e.com/hdm8pers/

When you install it get the ISO from \Program Files\Paragon Software\Hard Disk Manager 8 Special Edition\ISO\bootcd.iso.
If it's not there, open the program and tools->recovery media builder and make it.

I renamed the ISO to hdmanager.iso, copy it wherever you want. Menu.lst for it:

title Paragon HD manager 8.0
find --set-root /hdmanager.iso
map /hdmanager.iso (hd32)
map --hook
root (hd32)
chainloader (hd32)

For both of them- if you change map --mem /hdmanager.iso (hd32) / map --mem /acronis10.iso (hd32)
you will be able to manipulate the partition, even overwriting the respective ISO or partition, as they the ISO will be running entirely from RAM.
