If I remove the argument APPEND,the only other chance that I have to pass the preseed file is to add it inside the initrd file. But this is not the official method suggested by the cubic developers. If you will read on the preseed tab on cubic you will see that they suggest to prefix the preseed file with the word "cdrom" in the boot configuration. This seems to be exactly what I'm doing. And I don't understand why you are talking about ISOLINUX,when I have added the preseed file in another folder,in the /boot/grub.cfg file...and I told you that the preseed file is not ignored anymore from since I have added it on the grub.cfg file.

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 :)
