GRUB Installation
Installation of GRUB is a twostep process. The first step is to install or build GRUB in a host OS environment, and for this we will, of course, use Linux. The second step is to install and configure GRUB as the boot loader for your system. Compile GRUB Source Code The first step is the usual: download the source archive, untar it, configure and make install. Assuming you have found a source mirror (see www.gnu.org/software/grub/grub.html) and downloaded the source distribution into a suitable working directory, continue with: tar -xzvf grub-0.97.tar.gz cd grub-0.97 ./configure make make install This should create the executables: grub, grub-install and mbchk; install support files in /usr/lib/grub/i386-pc/, and install the GNU information manual and man pages.
For the second step of installation, we will first build and work with a GRUB bootable CD. Preparing a GRUB Bootable CD Follow the steps and build your GRUB Bootable CD mkdir iso mkdir p iso/boot/grub cp /usr/lib/grub/i386pc/stage2_eltorito iso/boot/grub mkisofs R b boot/grub/stage2_eltorito noemulboot bootloadsize 4 bootinfotable o grub.iso iso Install GRUB on MBR Reboot your system with “GRUB Installation CD”, after load stage1 you find a grub shell.

(hd0,1) then you install the GRUB on your Hard Disk Master Boot Record (MBR). The steps are as following. grub>root (hd0,1) grub>setup (hd0) grub>quit The GRUB Install process is now complete. Reboot your system.
