So sorry, wubi is a Windows based application. I don't do Windows by default.

So now I have to dredge about to find more special boot options. This 
really is irritating that default options that are documented in man 
page of the apt-get source version of casper have been removed 
without any indication. This is a silent fork of casper. Talk about 
let's make it really hard to do any non-standard install.

I'm doing the bootloader for the AppleTV, I use kexec to launch the 
target kernel/initrd/iniramfs/kernel params. None of the traditional 
bootloader (grub, syslinux, isolinux, lilo, elilo, rEFIt) can boot 
Linux on an AppleTV.

The AppleTV does not have a PC BIOS and cannot run Windows. Users of 
my bootloader want to install direct from an iso as it saves from 
having to purchase an USB CD/DVD drive. How does wubi or it's 
derivatives help me install Ubuntu/Mythbuntu/Kbuntu direct from an 
iso?
