vtoy amazing |

I followed the instructions for adding a virtualbox machine as vtoy. This is amazing. It does not work in UEFi either but it works splendidly on legacy. I have to wonder if there is a need for linux systems with persistence anymore. I guess if you are cramped for space.
Any thoughts?

Linux vDisk Boot Plugin + vdiskchain |

First of all, thanks for releasing this brilliant software/utility - seriously, its exactly what many of us needed.
Now for the problem:
So i have Elementary OS 6.1 installed on a VHD using the latest VirtualBox 6.1
The VHD is 16Gb with a 280 MB EFI and balance Ext4
Ran vtoy shell script and it ran successfully.
OS boots fine and after changing the filename of vhd to *.vhd.vtoy i can copy it to any ventoy usb and boot.
Created vlnk.vtoy to the above vhd saved on my harddisk /SSD (using latest ventioy 1.0.80) and copying that file to any ventoy usb boots the linux vhd from my hard disk.
Added: chainloader (hd0,1)/EFI/vdiskchain vdisk=/VMs/eOS62/eOS62.vhd.vtoy
to grub.cfg using grub-customizer and also by directly typing it on a grub shell or pressing 'e' to edit grub menu during boot.
Now when it boots i get a blank screen. Both vdiskchain & vhd are found and loaded
And on checking the console I can see its not going ahead on: "loading initial ramdisk ..."
So i ran vtoyboot.sh again.
Somehow, the grub.cfg on the EFI partition of this VHD shows me different things while the vtoyboot.sh script makes changes in some different grub.cfg
If i run grub-customizer and make some changes then i can see them in grub.cfg but on booting the grub menu that comes up is different (its the one that vtoyboot.sh is editing/creating)
So i have tried a few times to mount the EFI partition and try to see from where the vtoyboot.sh grub.cfg is coming but nothing yet.
Any idea what i should check ?
