https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/ch05s01.en.html#boot-initrd
gives this sample Grub2 configuration.

menuentry 'New Install' {
insmod part_msdos
insmod ext2
set root='(hd0,msdos1)'
linux /boot/newinstall/vmlinuz
initrd /boot/newinstall/initrd.gz
}

No problem with vmlinuz and initrd.gz but the CD image is not found.

The configuration which worked in the past had parameters on the linux 
command. Similar to this.

linux /vmlinuz root=UUID=50e0fa4b-6c62-40f8-8a84-46ab1413eb5a ro from=hd fromiso=debian-10.6.0-i386-netinst.iso load=all reboot=bios

The instructions at the URL above appear incomplete. Does anyone 
happen to know how the ISO should be accessed?  Loop mount at 
/dev/cdrom?

Thx,               ... P.
