Pop!_OS is broken #41

Description

First of all thanks for forking the original repo. I really loved the tool and I'm glad to see someone is willing to maintain it for a bit longer.

Having said that, the latest Pop!_OS iso does not contain a loopback.cfg file (also see pop-os/iso#243 and aguslr#159 ), so this does not work, sadly.

What worked for me was to manually copy the entry¹ from grub.cfg from the ISO to boot/grub/mbusb.d/pop-os.d/generic.cfg but that will break on the following release, so it would be nice to see if we can fix this in a generic way. If there is no such way, please remove this file to avoid confusion (it jumps back when you try to select the entry in the boot screen).
