Boot Loader Information

Grub Grub is an acronym for Grand Unified Bootloader.

An excellent overview of Grub and how to use it is located at

http://sdb.suse.de/en/sdb/html/fhassel_grub_overview.html

For now, here is some general information on the configuration file,

grub.conf:

Edit the file /etc/grub.conf to add/remove menu items, and adjust the default.

The default is indicated by the line default x, where x is the number of the

title you want to boot, beginning with 0 (zero). Get it? Didn’t think so.

How about this explanation then?

The following example shows the structure of the menu file /etc/grub.conf.

In this example, /dev/hda5 is the Linux boot partition, /dev/hda7 is the root

partition, and /dev/hda1 contains a Windows operating system.

gfxmenu (hd0,4)/message

color white/green black/light-gray

default 0

timeout 8

title linux

kernel (hd0,4)/vmlinuz root=/dev/hda7 vga=791

initrd (hd0,4)/initrd

title windows

root (hd0,0)

makeactive

chainloader +1

title floppy

root (fd0)

chainloader +1

title failsafe

kernel (hd0,4)/vmlinuz.shipped root=/dev/hda7 ide=nodma

apm=off acpi=off vga=normal nosmp maxcpus=0 3

initrd (hd0,4)/initrd.shipped

The entries have the following meaning:

• As you can easily guess, the first two lines cover the configuration of

the splash menu: the background image is located in /dev/hda5 and

has the name "message". Foreground: white, background: green,

selection: black, background of the selection: light gray.

• The entry "default 0" in the third line indicates that the first menu

entry ("title linux") is the default selection for booting.

• Line 4: The timeout is 8 seconds.
