On my USB stick I have entries like this for some Ubuntu images in the
file "/boot/grub/grub.cfg":

menuentry "Mini Raring i386" {
 loopback loop /isos/raring-i386-mini.iso
 linux (loop)/linux iso-scan/filename=/isos/raring-i386-mini.iso initrd=initrd.gz -- quiet
 initrd (loop)/initrd.gz
}

The images are in a folder "/isos" but you probably guessed that already.
