I downloaded grml96_2011.12.iso and I would be glad to boot this file without having to burn a CD or to write it down to a USB stick.

menuentry 'grmliso' { iso_virtuel / "grml96_2011.12.iso" set root=(iso) set iso_path=(iso) configfile /boot/grub/grub.cfg }
The problem is probably that you have to export the iso path otherwise the exported values won't be availabe in the other grub configs. This means you have to add export iso_path to your menu entry.
There are other small issues you should also be aware of:
1) You should use loopback.cfg instead of grub.cfg as loopback.cfg is a more standardized way e.g. ubuntu also supports loobpack.cfg 2) The released grml96 iso image has a wrong grub config (i think you only can boot either grml64 or grml32). You should generate your own grub config with the current grml2usb itself.
