In my disk imaging project include a script that allows adding g4l 
to grub2 similar to memtest86+

The g4l-lite-fc43.zip has the kernel and initramfs.lzma files and all 
the grub4dos bios and grub4dos. 
For the grub2 the kernel file bz7x0.1 and initramfs.lzma need to be 
added to /boot, and the /boot/loader/entries/needs to be created.


cat mkefiloader.sh 
#!/usr/bin/bash
unzip g4l-lite-fc43.zip linux/bz7x0.1 linux/initramfs.lzma -d /boot
# puts kernel and initramfs in /boot directory
# create /boot/loader/entries for option to load from grub2

machineid=$(cat /etc/machine-id) 

{
echo title G4L 0.70
echo version 0.G4L
echo linux /$(ls bz* | grep -v .config)
echo initrd /initramfs.lzma
echo grub_users \$grub_users
echo grub_arg --unrestricted
echo grub_class fedora
} >/boot/loader/entries/"$machineid"-0-G4L.conf


Don't see what is so complicated in that.
