That was just *too* easy. For the record: mount Debian install CD at /media/cdrom0. Copy image to boot directory. Copy memdisk from syslinux. Add to /boot/grub/menu.lst. Thank you! dd if=/media/cdrom0/install/sbm.bin of=/boot/sbm.img bs=1k count=32 cp /usr/lib/syslinux/memdisk /boot cat >> /boot/grub/menu.lst <<woot title boot whatever CD is in the drive, via SBM kernel (hd0,0)/boot/memdisk initrd (hd0,0)/boot/sbm,img woot Of course if you don't like typing into cat(1), you can use a text editor.
