I would like to know if one can extract an ISO into a folder and then add an entry into the bootloader pointing to initrd and kernel and boot into this linux distro?
I know booting into linux ISO mounted as loop device is possible but I could not find a way to extract ISO or copy installed system into a folder and run that OS.
If this does not work, then please tell the reasons?
