Hi,
i'm trying to convert these entries from grub4dos to grub2 starting with UEFI

In my lst I've

 

find --set-root /boot/InSeven.iso
map --heads=0 --sectors-per-track=0 /boot/InSeven.iso (hd32)
map --hook; chainloader (hd32)

And

 

kernel memdisk
    append iso
    INITRD /boot/InSeven.iso

I just tried to launch grub.exe using this entry
 

menuentry "GRUB4DOS" {
 set root='(hd0,1)'
 set g4d_dir="/boot/Grub045"
 linux $g4d_dir/grub.exe --config-file=$g4d_dir/menu.lst
}

But don't find the menu.lst

Can any one hel me to find the solution?

Thanks

Davide

Try first a plainer approach:

 

menuentry "GRUB4DOS" {
set root='(hd0,1)'
set g4d_dir="/boot/Grub045"
linux $g4d_dir/grub.exe --config-file=(hd0,0)/boot/Grub045/menu.lst
}

Remember that grub4dos numbers partitions with base 0 whilst GRUB2 numbers them with base 1.

Thanks for reply but don't works

From grub2 you are loading grub4dos (grub.exe), which does not support UEFI at all.

Thanks for reply,
I've to launch one ISO that contain one ima with freedos.
I don't have to launch EFI but one ISO large 1.44 mb.
I Just tried with memdisk with the same result.
I Just tried to put standard menu of Grub4Dos with the same result (not found menu.lst)

I've to launch one ISO that contain one ima with freedos.

I doubt freedos at UEFI environment. Freedos won't run at UEFI.
A BIOS is required.

Revalutate your question:
which application do you like to run at UEFI?


Some hints

http://askubuntu.com...o-file-in-grub2
http://askubuntu.com...live-iso-images

I doubt grub2 to launch a Windows ISO image at UEFI.

I've to launch this ISO file.
My test is with this file but my issue born before coming to load the ISO.

I'm usigng the bootx64.efi taken from gparted and 
linux16 isn't a command recognized.
memdisk.mod isn't found
