Will Grub2 boot Windows w/o NTLDR?

If not, it would ba nice feature, for a bunch of reasons, not the least 
of which is to boot from non-traditional devices and in to an embedded 
environment.

I thought about it but when I saw the size of ntldr and ntdetect.com I 
gave up the idea to rewrite it. But I thought about the kind of adaptor 
that forces ntldr to read kernel from specificed memory location instead 
of file. Other idea is to have a llok at freeloader of ReactOS but I 
don't know if it's compatible with kernel of Windows from Microsoft. 
Anyway I have other prioritary features to realise at the moment. Later 
after some other things I'll try but not right now

Thanks Vladimir,

If I had enough documentation I would give it a try. Alas I have other 
priorities as well.
