Then I put a dosfloppy image and memdisk on the image:

mkdir -p /mnt/boot/grub
cp dos622.IMA /mnt/boot/
cp /usr/lib/syslinux/memdisk /mnt/boot
/mnt/boot/grub/grub.cfg contains:

problem booting msdos with memdisk
...Thinkpad machines with syslinux's memdisk - Dell machines work fine though. I reported this problem almost 2 years ago but no solution was found then.
Use grub4dos v 0.4.1 - it is the most stable at the moment. Here is an example syslinux.cfg:
default grub.exe --config-file="map --mem dosfloppy.gz (fd0); map --hook; chainloader (fd0)+1; rootnoverify (fd0); boot"
Good luck,
Quinn

Can this work?
I would like to develop a system where by I can boot any of the
machines on my system - and select from a menu what I would like that
particular client to do. For example, maybe load a bootdisk image from
a network share, and boot that. Or boot the first partition on the
local disk.
