GRUB Live ISO Multiboot

GLIM is a set of grub configuration files to turn a simple VFAT formatted USB memory stick with many GNU/Linux distribution ISO images into a neat device from which many different Live environments can be used.

Special Case Distributions

OpenELEC

This is a special case, since OpenELEC isn't provided as ISO images, nor is it able to find the KERNEL and SYSTEM files it needs anywhere else than at the root of the filesystem. But it's useful to enable booting the OpenELEC installer by just copying both files from any single version (ION, Intel, Fusion, Generic, etc.) to the root of the USB memory stick, instead of first having to create a new separate USB memory just for the installer.
