oops seems we don't know if he ever succeeded to get it going?
Hope it is okay if I ask how one do it without using unetbootin.

I have a grub4dos menu.lst and want to boot CentOS frugally.

this is my code for ubntu like os. I have currently four (7 actually) booting
such variations of ubuntu working in frugal iso install on NTFS internal hdd.

Can you please suggest what code to use for CentOS?


title Netrunner 2011 frugal iso boot of netrunner-3.2.iso
find --set-root --ignore-floppies --ignore-cd /netrunner-3.2.iso
kernel /netrunner/casper/vmlinuz rw file=/cdrom/preseed/netrunner.seed boot=casper iso-scan/filename=/netrunner-3.2.iso noeject noprompt
initrd /netrunner/casper/initrd.lz
