Topic: Similar Program to Easyboot for Harddisk

Hi,
it would be nice to have a program like Easyboot with that one can boot a multiboot image, that includes several bootable CD/DVD-Images (like ISOīs) from Harddisk.
The advantage would be that one can have more space for bigger or more images and that one can easyly change one image to a newer version whitout burning it.
I for example would use it for a "Test-PC".
If there is already a programm to boot CD/DVD-Images vom Harddisk it would be nice to get the name - i havenīt found any.

The only thing i found is a "virtual pc" like vmware but i dont want to use such a programm because it needs so much system resources an i need to boot an operating system before etc.

Thanks for any answer...

I'm going to second this suggestion.

I boot my BartPE from my USB drive (as well as from a MultiBootDVD) and I'd like to multiboot my USB drive (to various diagnostic image files....)   I've looked into other boot loaders, and probably will have to use one of them, but it would be great to use an EZBOOT like system.

Or if there were a way to use something like GRUB to boot to the *.ezb file... etc...

At present, a third-party free utility named ISOEMU can load bootable ISOs created by EasyBoot on harddisk.
