Interesting. I'll await one of HPA's 4.10 test releases for this unless 
someone got a binary (.c32) handy somewhere.
My use case for an inner MEMDISK-loaded ISO would be to either suppress 
the menu or to start a default entry.

Slightly offtopic:
* is CHAIN.C32 working for FreeLDR (trunk) ? Mboot.c32 only partial, due 
to 'root' requirement.
* is an IsoHybrid image possible with only DOS in it?
I can imagine the script adding MBR, maybe partition layout, but not 
bootsector. It would also mean adding a kernel and config file at root 
of ISO. Think I opened some Isyhybrid file a while ago, WinImage wasn't 
happy with it at all.
