+<title>GRUB 2 Bootloader Support (version 1.98)</title>
+<para>
+If an application is built with the GRUB startup type, it is
+configured to be loaded by the GRUB bootloader.
+</para>
+<para>
+GRUB 2 is an open source boot loader that supports many different
+operating systems.  GRUB 2 is the sucessor to the legacy GRUB boot 
+loader.  It has been rewritten and requires a new configuration 
+file that is different from the legacy GRUB loader.
+It is available from
+<ulink
+url="http://www.gnu.org/software/grub">http://www.gnu.org/software/grub</ulink>.
+The latest version of GRUB should be downloaded from there and installed.
+Cygwin users will need to install the GRand Unified Bootloader package on their
+system.
+</para>
+<para>
+To install GRUB 2 on a disk drive from Cygwin you will first need to
+format your disk.  Begin by launching a windows Command Prompt with 
+ADMINISTRATOR priviledges. This example assumes that your destination
+drive is E and the filesystem type is FAT32.
+</para>
+<screen>
+$ <userinput>format e: /fs:fat32 /q</userinput>
+
+The type of the file system is FAT32.
+WARNING, ALL DATA ON NON-REMOVABLE DISK
+DRIVE E: WILL BE LOST!
+Proceed with Format (Y/N)? y
+QuickFormatting 512M
+Initializing the File Allocation Table (FAT)...
+Volume label (11 characters, ENTER for none)?
+Format complete.
+</screen>
+<para>
+When your drive is finished formatting, Cygwin will automatically
+mount the drive under /cygdrive/e.  Next, launch a bash shell.  
+Cygwin users should run their shell as ADMINISTRATOR otherwise 
+the grub-install program will fail.  To install GRUB we need to
+know the device name for your disk.  A second disk drive is usually
+called /dev/sdb.  The C: drive is usually called /dev/sda.  Determine
+your device name by reading the /proc/partitions file.
+This example uses /dev/sdb as input to the GRUB install program.

+$ <userinput>cp redboot.elf /cygdrive/e/boot</userinput>
+</screen>
+<para>
+After installing GRUB 2, we need to a copy a configuration 
+file for grub to use.  The file <filename>grub.cfg</filename> is an example 
+configuration file that loads redboot.elf.  You should, of course, customize 
+this file to load your own application. Alternatively you can use the command-line 
+interface of GRUB to input commands yourself. Applications can be installed or 
+updated simply by copying them to the location expected by the 
+<filename>grub.cfg</filename> file. In this example the /boot directory is used.
+</para>
+<para>
+When installing GRUB on a hard disk, refer to the GRUB documentation. Be
+warned, however, that if you get this wrong it may compromise any
+existing bootloader that exists on the hard disk and may make any
+other operating systems unbootable. Practice on a spare disk or
+sacrificial hard disks first.
