Its not possible for me to create a bootable grub2 cd with imgburn. I build the iso image and test it with a vmware and i get only a black screen at boot.
I take a grub2 image called super_grub_disk_hybrid-1.98s1.iso from here:
http://developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=10921 and take the grub folder from the iso for my data cd.
In the grub folder is a file called eltorito.img. I take this as bootimage with options no emu, load segment 07C0 and 1 sector. With cdrtools this works immediately - no problem, but with imgburn this doesn´t work.
Some infos from isoinfo.exe:
