[Bug 1851311] Re: Grub 2.04 Out of memory error, No server error

[PJSingh5000]

Does anyone know which package contains the iso9660 module for grub?

Would it be possible to copy the iso9660 module from the the 19.04 or
18.04 Ubuntu releases (e.g. grub 2.02), and explicitly load it before
executing the loopback command?

Title:
  Grub 2.04 Out of memory error, No server error

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Trying to loop mount ISO.

  Installed grub 2.04 to flash drive in UEFI mode from 19.10
  Flash drive does not boot and gives Out of memory error & no server error. Must load kernel first.

  Re-installed grub from 18.04 to same flash drive using same boot stanza.
  Booted without issue.

  From 18.04
  fred at Bionic-Z170N:~$ grub-install -V
  grub-install (GRUB) 2.02-2ubuntu8.13

  from 19.10
  fred at fred-Z170N-eoan:~$ grub-install -V
  grub-install (GRUB) 2.04-1ubuntu12

  Boot stanza that works in 2.02 but not in 2.04

  menuentry "Focal Live ISO" {
  set isofile="/ISO/focal-desktop-amd64.iso"
  loopback loop (hd0,1)$isofile
      linux (loop)/casper/vmlinuz boot=casper iso-scan/filename=$isofile toram noeject
      initrd (loop)/casper/initrd
  }
