No it doesn't because it directly loads the linux image, but what I wanted to do is very specific to multiboot disc because in this case you already have config files to load linux images, and usually these config files contains some precious info that are only loaded at boot prompt. And the only way to load again the boot prompt with these info is indeed the CONFIG option.

But it depends on the use you plan for your multiboot project. If you want to create a customized disc that will show your logo and infos and hide the original bootscreens it's better to use KERNEL/APPEND , but if you prefer to make what I call a true multiboot disc keeping original infos and bootscreens available then CONFIG is the way to go.

BTW thank's for the link I didn't know there was a wiki, I'll post my tutorial there when I'll get some spare time :D
