GRUB for DOS - Bridging DOS/Windows to Unix/Linux

Jan 28, 2011 - How to fix 'GRUB4DOS' boot from ISO error (EasyBCD) - Duration: 3:32. Furulevi 31,419 views 3:32 Hiren's Boot CD to USB Flashdrive.

GRUB4DOS is an universal boot loader based on GNU GRUB. It can boot off DOS/LINUX, or via Windows boot manager/syslinux/lilo, or from MBR/CD. It also has builtin BIOS disk emulation, ATAPI CDROM driver, etc.

GRUB for DOS is free and open-source software, released under the GNU General Public License.

News: This project now has yet another new home at https://gna.org/projects/grub4dos/.

You can boot the GRUB4DOS boot-loader/boot-manager in different manners:

(1) Run GRUB.EXE at the DOS prompt or in AUTOEXEC.BAT
(2) In CONFIG.SYS of DOS/Windows9x, use DEVICE=GRUB.EXE or INSTALL=GRUB.EXE or SHELL=GRUB.EXE
(3) In BOOT.INI of Windows NT/2K/XP, use C:GRLDR='GRUB' (there should be a backslash between C: and GRLDR)
(4) Under Linux, use 'kexec -l grub.exe' and then 'kexec -e'
(5) In syslinux.cfg, use 'kernel grub.exe'
(6) Under GNU GRUB, use 'kernel (DEVICE)/PATH/grub.exe'
(7) In lilo.conf, use 'image=/boot/grub.exe'
All above methods won't touch the MBR nor the boot area of any partition.
(8) Boot from MBR(or floppy) by installing boot sectors onto it with the DOS/LINUX utility bootlace.com.

When GRUB4DOS gets running, you can boot other OSes:

(1) Boot Linux kernel with 'kernel (DEVICE)/PATH/vmlinuz'
(2) Boot MS-DOS7+ kernel with 'chainloader (DEVICE)/io.sys'
(3) Boot FreeDOS kernel with 'chainloader (DEVICE)/kernel.sys'
(4) Boot NTLDR of Windows NT/2K/XP with 'chainloader (DEVICE)/ntldr'
(5) Boot CMLDR of Windows NT/2K/XP with 'chainloader (DEVICE)/cmldr'
(6) Boot other OSes with 'chainloader (DEVICE)+1'
(7) Boot DOS/Windows9x disk image files with the memdrive feature.
(8) Boot Smart Boot Manager with the memdrive feature(SBM can boot CD-ROMs).
