Using grml1.0 to boot from grml1.0's iso is easy, just use the bootfrom
cheat code, or check this out:
boot grml_iso from HD

Grub on USB Stick

To locate the booting USB is more difficult than HD, so you might want to
check out grml's booting with UUID option:

To use grub or grml as a general purpose iso-file boot loader, I doubt
that it is possible, but I'm ready to listen.
FYI, you might also find the following urls helpful.
