Package description for 'grub'

GNU GRUB, the GRand Unified Bootloader

 GNU GRUB is a very powerful boot loader, which can load a wide variety
 of free operating systems, as well as proprietary operating systems with
 chain-loading. GRUB is designed to address the complexity of booting a
 personal computer; both the program and this manual are tightly bound
 to that computer platform, although porting to other platforms may be
 addressed in the future.

 One of the important features in GRUB is flexibility; GRUB understands
 filesystems and kernel executable formats, so you can load an arbitrary
 operating system the way you like, without recording the physical position
 of your kernel on the disk.
