i tried testing android x86 9.0 r2 release. it integrates just fine. but from grub2, except advanced options, nothing appears. A fix is required for this one. And I tried integrating gandalfs windows 10 pe rs5 which is a 5gb bootable iso and it doesn't get integrated due to being over 4gb in size. So I guess you can make some readjustments in the auto detect mechanisms for files weighing over 4gb.

The latest version already supports Android-x86 9.0.
Currently I have no solution for WinPE files larger than 4GB on FAT32 partition. But you can try FAT32 & NTFS option. FAT32 to support UEFI boot and NTFS to store files.

You can also try adding theme features and also try some unique stuff grub2 offers. Like using any partition format ex. exfat to store iso files. I found a tool a named ventoy which offers almost abundance of features grub2 has to offer. but in your case, that might not be an issue. As you use easier way of integrating isos and menuentries of grub2. You can check his source codes for finding a way out. Trust me, he almost has it all. I have waited for a long time for you to provide fixes but just in few days ago, I migrated to his methods. It has few issues but it directly loads the isos instead of extracting them and almost all file system is supported for iso loading and even storing personal datas on the disks.

aioboot uses hotkeys so the user can access the menu quickly. using a naked theme will help show more entries.
i cannot bring ventoy special features into the aioboot as it is beyond my capabilities
