Simply remove the argument "APPEND" and then try whether your modified ISO
still does what you expect from it.

(As said, i think you carried it from an ISOLINUX example to the GRUB2
 configuration file, were it is not especially interpreted by GRUB2 but
 forwarded as kernel option to vmlinuz. There i expect it to be ignored.
 But i also expect it to be mistaken as essential by people who are in
 the same situation as you were a week ago and searching the web for
 solutions.)


Have a nice day :)
