Successfuly booted slax using: [EDIT: did not work(see update)]
CODE
map /g4d/iso/slax.iso (hd32)
map --hook
root (hd32)
chainloader (hd32)
boot

from commandline

--Update--
Slax and tinyme (livelinux) both report fatal error when trying to mount the live cd or find the files it booted from. the mistake was I had the cd in the drive so it found the files.
Fix: use "from=/path/to/slax.iso" cheatcode in slax.cfg.


whats special here is that I did this on a very old laptop that does not boot usb. I used plop to boot from usb (it is very slow - usb1.1)

I also successfuly booted tinyxp_4_usb.iso which is a (slightly modded) version of tinyxp install it seemed to work. meaning it booted but I stopped it because I cannot install to usb because I only have one usb port.

--side note--
whenever I visit this site the page is frozen. I need maximize then restore (or opposite) to be able to scroll. am I the only one?
