Here is the grub stanza I used this time:

find /isolinux17/vmlinuz
pause have finded

pause kernel /isolinux17/vmlinuz kernel /isolinux17/vmlinuz

find /isolinux17/initrd.img
pause have finded
initrd /isolinux17/initrd.img

Adding noacpi to the kernel line didn't allow booting,
but it did change the final screen.
