    hello.
    somebody tried to boot minios ?
    minios.dev
    looks simple but can not get it work.

    search --no-floppy --file --set=root /minios-live/minios/boot/vmlinuz-6.1.0-41-amd64

    set kernelpath='/minios-live/minios/boot/vmlinuz-6.1.0-41-amd64'
    set initrdpath='/minios-live/minios/boot/initrfs-6.1.0-41-amd64.img'

    set bootparams="boot=minios from=/minios-live/ root=live rw noprompt noeject"

    linux $kernelpath $bootparams
    initrd $initrdpath

    Any booting error messages?

    Where did you get the menu commands?

    How did you install the OS Svai? Have you installed it before?

    Have you looked at the minios's grub.cfg file in the ISO's /EFI/debian/ directory? It's almost like a grub2 ISO boot menu!

    And certainly shorter than the ISO's /minios/boot/grub/grub.cfg file.

    The /minios/boot/syslinux/bootinst.bat file is an interesting read also.

    file `/boot/grub/unicode.pf2' not found

    What I got with this menu:

    menuentry " minios" --class debian --class icon-debian {

     set iso="/ISOs/minios-trixie-xfce-standard-amd64-5.1.1.iso"
    

    # search -f $iso --set=root
    set root='(hd0,gpt4)'
    insmod part_gpt

     loopback loop $iso
    

    # From ISO's /minios/boot/grub/x86_64-efi/grub.cfg file.
    # GRUB EFI bootstrap configuration

    insmod part_acorn
    insmod part_amiga
    insmod part_apple
    insmod part_bsd
    insmod part_dfly
    insmod part_dvh
    insmod part_gpt
    insmod part_msdos
    insmod part_plan
    insmod part_sun
    insmod part_sunpc

    search --file --set=root /.disk/info
    source /minios/boot/grub/grub.cfg

    }
