file not found is CORRECT, that is not the bug, as the initrd seems to be renamed to

initrd (iso)/casper/initrd.lz

then it would work, but the bug is that it is impossible to select the entry twice. On 2nd try it ignores the initrd and boots the kernel it seems.

When i try this:

menuentry "Ubuntu Live" {
        search -sf /ISO/karmic-desktop-i386.iso
        loopback iso /ISO/karmic-desktop-i386.iso
        linux (iso)/casper/vmlinuz iso-scan/filename=/ISO/karmic-desktop-i386.iso boot=casper quiet splash
        initrd (iso)/casper/initrd.gz
}

Then the file is not found, which definitely is in (hd0,1) partition (on ntfs), even using

set root=(hd0,1)

instead of search -sf does not change anything. After first selection i get the file not found error and after that only the search line is shown in edit mode and a selection of that entry results in a pc lock.
