I have been quiet, but I am still attempting to get this going here. I 
have an image that seems to work, gets to Booting... and does nothing. I 
will see if I can compile the new version and give it a go.

On a side note, It appears grub4dos has support for loading sdi files. I 
am currently looking at that to see if I can get my file working with 
it. I say it appears, because so far there is very little information 
about it.

The information I see, is that it is only mentioned in the command help 
output for chainload. I am hoping I can figure out grub quickly and post 
a success, otherwise I have no idea if this file is setup correctly. 
Using it in the fashion I am used to requires external files, and does 
seem to work correctly.
