I have the same problem,
I am trying to make kali i386 iso boot from hdd with grub2(on a dedicated NTFS partition,).
40_common.cfg
menuentry "Kali Linux 1.0 i386" {
insmod ntfscomp
iso="/kali-linux-1.0-i386.iso"
bootoptions="findiso=$iso boot=live noconfig=sudo username=root hostname=kali quiet splash"
search --set -f $iso
loopback loop (hd0,7)$iso
linux (loop)/live/vmlinuz $bootoptions
initrd (loop)/live/initrd.img
}
menuentry "Kali Linux 1.0 i386 (forensic)" {
insmod ntfscomp
iso="/kali-linux-1.0-i386.iso"
bootoptions="findiso=$iso boot=live noconfig=sudo username=root hostname=kali noswap noautomount"
search --set -f $iso
loopback loop (hd0,7)$iso
linux (loop)/live/vmlinuz $bootoptions
initrd (loop)/live/initrd.img
}

both don't work
And I get a screen full of:
modprobe: module swap not found in modules.dep

i didn't try much, as I have only started using linux,
Loading Live Ubuntu Iso works fine

Iso on NTFS is uncompressed, althrough the rest of the partition is.
