Not yet :( but that's coming :) I'm doing it the Grub Legacy way of having a "stage 1" specifically for CD-ROM booting. So, instead of using diskboot.S, for "disk" booting, I use a cdboot.S which loads the kernel at the right address and boots it. > > The filesystem should automatically be detected.

I've been adding some debug prints in there... I've modified biosdisk.c to recognize drives like (cd0) which basically start at 0xe0 and have no partitions. When I try to do something like ls (cd0)/, QEMU freezes (and I don't see the prints I added), bochs quickly resets (and if the prints do show up, I don't have time to see them before it resets)... :( I'll probably step through with gdb or something... > > What you could do first is checking if grub-emu can read your > filesystem image.
