It +complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft +license designed for free software. + +We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for free +software, because free software needs free documentation: a free +program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms that the +software does. But this License is not limited to software manuals; +it can be used for any textual work, regardless of subject matter or +whether it is published as a printed book. We recommend this License +principally for works whose purpose is instruction or reference. + +@item +APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS + +This License applies to any manual or other work, in any medium, that +contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can be +distributed under the terms of this License. Such a notice grants a +world-wide, royalty-free license, unlimited in duration, to use that +work under the conditions stated herein. The ``Document'', below, +refers to any such manual or work. Any member of the public is a +licensee, and is addressed as ``you''. You accept the license if you +copy, modify or distribute the work in a way requiring permission +under copyright law. + +A ``Modified Version'' of the Document means any work containing the +Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with +modifications and/or translated into another language. + +A ``Secondary Section'' is a named appendix or a front-matter section +of the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the +publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall +subject (or to related matters) and contains nothing that could fall +directly within that overall subject. (Thus, if the Document is in +part a textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not explain +any mathematics.) The relationship could be a matter of historical +connection with the subject or with related matters, or of legal, +commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position regarding +them. + +The ``Invariant Sections'' are certain Secondary Sections whose titles +are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in the notice +that says that the Document is released under this License. If a +section does not fit the above definition of Secondary then it is not +allowed to be designated as Invariant. The Document may contain zero +Invariant Sections. If the Document does not identify any Invariant +Sections then there are none. + +The ``Cover Texts'' are certain short passages of text that are listed, +as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice that says that +the Document is released under this License. A Front-Cover Text may +be at most 5 words, and a Back-Cover Text may be at most 25 words. + +A ``Transparent'' copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy, +represented in a format whose specification is available to the +general public, that is suitable for revising the document +straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images composed of +pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely available +drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to text formatters or +for automatic translation to a variety of formats suitable for input +to text formatters. A copy made in an otherwise Transparent file +format whose markup, or absence of markup, has been arranged to thwart +or discourage subsequent modification by readers is not Transparent. +An image format is not Transparent if used for any substantial amount +of text. A copy that is not ``Transparent'' is called ``Opaque''. + +Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain +@sc{ascii} without markup, Texinfo input format, La@TeX{} input +format, @acronym{SGML} or @acronym{XML} using a publicly available +@acronym{DTD}, and standard-conforming simple @acronym{HTML}, +PostScript or @acronym{PDF} designed for human modification. Examples +of transparent image formats include @acronym{PNG}, @acronym{XCF} and +@acronym{JPG}. Opaque formats include proprietary formats that can be +read and edited only by proprietary word processors, @acronym{SGML} or +@acronym{XML} for which the @acronym{DTD} and/or processing tools are +not generally available, and the machine-generated @acronym{HTML}, +PostScript or @acronym{PDF} produced by some word processors for +output purposes only. + +The ``Title Page'' means, for a printed book, the title page itself, +plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the material +this License requires to appear in the title page. For works in +formats which do not have any title page as such, ``Title Page'' means +the text near the most prominent appearance of the work's title, +preceding the beginning of the body of the text. + +A section ``Entitled XYZ'' means a named subunit of the Document whose +title either is precisely XYZ or contains XYZ in parentheses following +text that translates XYZ in another language. (Here XYZ stands for a +specific section name mentioned below, such as ``Acknowledgements'', +``Dedications'', ``Endorsements'', or ``History''.) To ``Preserve the Title'' +of such a section when you modify the Document means that it remains a +section ``Entitled XYZ'' according to this definition. + +The Document may include Warranty Disclaimers next to the notice which +states that this License applies to the Document. These Warranty +Disclaimers are considered to be included by reference in this +License, but only as regards disclaiming warranties: any other +implication that these Warranty Disclaimers may have is void and has +no effect on the meaning of this License. + +@item +VERBATIM COPYING + +You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either +commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the +copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License applies +to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you add no other +conditions whatsoever to those of this License. You may not use +technical measures to obstruct or control the reading or further +copying of the copies you make or distribute. However, you may accept +compensation in exchange for copies. If you distribute a large enough +number of copies you must also follow the conditions in section 3. + +You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above, and +you may publicly display copies. + +@item +COPYING IN QUANTITY + +If you publish printed copies (or copies in media that commonly have +printed covers) of the Document, numbering more than 100, and the +Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must enclose the +copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all these Cover +Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and Back-Cover Texts on +the back cover. Both covers must also clearly and legibly identify +you as the publisher of these copies. The front cover must present +the full title with all words of the title equally prominent and +visible. You may add other material on the covers in addition. +Copying with changes limited to the covers, as long as they preserve +the title of the Document and satisfy these conditions, can be treated +as verbatim copying in other respects. + +If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit +legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit +reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto adjacent +pages. + +If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document numbering +more than 100, you must either include a machine-readable Transparent +copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with each Opaque copy +a computer-network location from which the general network-using +public has access to download using public-standard network protocols +a complete Transparent copy of the Document, free of added material. +If you use the latter option, you must take reasonably prudent steps, +when you begin distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure +that this Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated +location until at least one year after the last time you distribute an +Opaque copy (directly or through your agents or retailers) of that +edition to the public. + +It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of the +Document well before redistributing any large number of copies, to give +them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the Document. + +@item +MODIFICATIONS + +You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document under +the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you release +the Modified Version under precisely this License, with the Modified +Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing distribution +and modification of the Modified Version to whoever possesses a copy +of it. In addition, you must do these things in the Modified Version: + +@enumerate A +@item +Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title distinct +from that of the Document, and from those of previous versions +(which should, if there were any, be listed in the History section +of the Document). You may use the same title as a previous version +if the original publisher of that version gives permission. + +@item +List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or entities +responsible for authorship of the modifications in the Modified +Version, together with at least five of the principal authors of the +Document (all of its principal authors, if it has fewer than five), +unless they release you from this requirement. + +@item +State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the +Modified Version, as the publisher. + +@item +Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document. + +@item +Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications +adjacent to the other copyright notices. + +@item +Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license notice +giving the public permission to use the Modified Version under the +terms of this License, in the form shown in the Addendum below. + +@item +Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant Sections +and required Cover Texts given in the Document's license notice. + +@item +Include an unaltered copy of this License. + +@item +Preserve the section Entitled ``History'', Preserve its Title, and add +to it an item stating at least the title, year, new authors, and +publisher of the Modified Version as given on the Title Page. If +there is no section Entitled ``History'' in the Document, create one +stating the title, year, authors, and publisher of the Document as +given on its Title Page, then add an item describing the Modified +Version as stated in the previous sentence. + +@item +Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document for +public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and likewise +the network locations given in the Document for previous versions +it was based on. These may be placed in the ``History'' section. +You may omit a network location for a work that was published at +least four years before the Document itself, or if the original +publisher of the version it refers to gives permission. + +@item +For any section Entitled ``Acknowledgements'' or ``Dedications'', Preserve +the Title of the section, and preserve in the section all the +substance and tone of each of the contributor acknowledgements and/or +dedications given therein. + +@item +Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document, +unaltered in their text and in their titles. Section numbers +or the equivalent are not considered part of the section titles. + +@item +Delete any section Entitled ``Endorsements''. Such a section +may not be included in the Modified Version. + +@item +Do not retitle any existing section to be Entitled ``Endorsements'' or +to conflict in title with any Invariant Section. + +@item +Preserve any Warranty Disclaimers. +@end enumerate + +If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or +appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no material +copied from the Document, you may at your option designate some or all +of these sections as invariant. To do this, add their titles to the +list of Invariant Sections in the Modified Version's license notice. +These titles must be distinct from any other section titles. + +You may add a section Entitled ``Endorsements'', provided it contains +nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various +parties---for example, statements of peer review or that the text has +been approved by an organization as the authoritative definition of a +standard. + +You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text, and a +passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of the list +of Cover Texts in the Modified Version. Only one passage of +Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or +through arrangements made by) any one entity. If the Document already +includes a cover text for the same cover, previously added by you or +by arrangement made by the same entity you are acting on behalf of, +you may not add another; but you may replace the old one, on explicit +permission from the previous publisher that added the old one. + +The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this License +give permission to use their names for publicity for or to assert or +imply endorsement of any Modified Version. + +@item +COMBINING DOCUMENTS + +You may combine the Document with other documents released under this +License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for modified +versions, provided that you include in the combination all of the +Invariant Sections of all of the original documents, unmodified, and +list them all as Invariant Sections of your combined work in its +license notice, and that you preserve all their Warranty Disclaimers. + +The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and +multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single +copy. If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name but +different contents, make the title of each such section unique by +adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the original +author or publisher of that section if known, or else a unique number. +Make the same adjustment to the section titles in the list of +Invariant Sections in the license notice of the combined work. + +In the combination, you must combine any sections Entitled ``History'' +in the various original documents, forming one section Entitled +``History''; likewise combine any sections Entitled ``Acknowledgements'', +and any sections Entitled ``Dedications''. You must delete all +sections Entitled ``Endorsements.'' + +@item +COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS + +You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other documents +released under this License, and replace the individual copies of this +License in the various documents with a single copy that is included in +the collection, provided that you follow the rules of this License for +verbatim copying of each of the documents in all other respects. + +You may extract a single document from such a collection, and distribute +it individually under this License, provided you insert a copy of this +License into the extracted document, and follow this License in all +other respects regarding verbatim copying of that document. + +@item +AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS + +A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other separate +and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a storage or +distribution medium, is called an ``aggregate'' if the copyright +resulting from the compilation is not used to limit the legal rights +of the compilation's users beyond what the individual works permit. +When the Document is included in an aggregate, this License does not +apply to the other works in the aggregate which are not themselves +derivative works of the Document. + +If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these +copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one half of +the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed on +covers that bracket the Document within the aggregate, or the +electronic equivalent of covers if the Document is in electronic form. +Otherwise they must appear on printed covers that bracket the whole +aggregate. + +@item +TRANSLATION + +Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may +distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section 4. +Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special +permission from their copyright holders, but you may include +translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the +original versions of these Invariant Sections. You may include a +translation of this License, and all the license notices in the +Document, and any Warranty Disclaimers, provided that you also include +the original English version of this License and the original versions +of those notices and disclaimers. In case of a disagreement between +the translation and the original version of this License or a notice +or disclaimer, the original version will prevail. + +If a section in the Document is Entitled ``Acknowledgements'', +``Dedications'', or ``History'', the requirement (section 4) to Preserve +its Title (section 1) will typically require changing the actual +title. + +@item +TERMINATION + +You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document except +as expressly provided for under this License. Any other attempt to +copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Document is void, and will +automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, +parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this +License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such +parties remain in full compliance. + +@item +FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE + +The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions +of the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time. Such new +versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may +differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. See +@uref{http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/}. + +Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version number. +If the Document specifies that a particular numbered version of this +License ``or any later version'' applies to it, you have the option of +following the terms and conditions either of that specified version or +of any later version that has been published (not as a draft) by the +Free Software Foundation.

We define additional +conventions for GRUB here. + +* Menu: + +* Naming Conventions:: +* Functions:: +* Variables:: +* Types:: +* Macros:: +* Comments:: +* Multi-Line Comments:: + + +File: grub-dev.info, Node: Naming Conventions, Next: Functions, Up: Coding style + +2.1 Naming Conventions +====================== + +All global symbols (i.e. functions, variables, types, and macros) must +have the prefix grub_ or GRUB_. The all capital form is used only by +macros. + + +File: grub-dev.info, Node: Functions, Next: Variables, Prev: Naming Conventions, Up: Coding style + +2.2 Functions +============= + +If a function is global, its name must be prefixed with grub_ and must +consist of only small letters. If the function belongs to a specific +function module, the name must also be prefixed with the module name. +For example, if a function is for file systems, its name is prefixed +with grub_fs_. If a function is for FAT file system but not for all +file systems, its name is prefixed with grub_fs_fat_. The hierarchy is +noted this way. + + After a prefix, a function name must start with a verb (such as get +or is). It must not be a noun. Some kind of abbreviation is permitted, +as long as it wouldn't make code less readable (e.g. init). + + If a function is local, its name may not start with any prefix. It +must start with a verb. + + +File: grub-dev.info, Node: Variables, Next: Types, Prev: Functions, Up: Coding style + +2.3 Variables +============= + +The rule is mostly the same as functions, as noted above. If a variable +is global, its name must be prefixed with grub_ and must consist of only +small letters. If the variable belongs to a specific function module, +the name must also be prefixed with the module name. For example, if a +function is for dynamic loading, its name is prefixed with grub_dl_. If +a variable is for ELF but not for all dynamic loading systems, its name +is prefixed with grub_dl_elf_. + + After a prefix, a variable name must start with a noun or an +adjective (such as name or long) and it should end with a noun. Some +kind of abbreviation is permitted, as long as it wouldn't make code less +readable (e.g. i18n). + + If a variable is global in the scope of a single file (i.e. it is +declared with static), its name may not start with any prefix. It must +start with a noun or an adjective. + + If a variable is local, you may choose any shorter name, as long as +it wouldn't make code less readable (e.g. i). + + +File: grub-dev.info, Node: Types, Next: Macros, Prev: Variables, Up: Coding style + +2.4 Types +========= + +The name of a type must be prefixed with grub_ and must consist of only +small letters. If the type belongs to a specific function module, the +name must also be prefixed with the module name. For example, if a type +is for OS loaders, its name is prefixed with grub_loader_. If a type is +for Multiboot but not for all OS loaders, its name is prefixed with +grub_loader_linux_. + + The name must be suffixed with _t, to emphasize the fact that it is a +type but not a variable or a function. + + +File: grub-dev.info, Node: Macros, Next: Comments, Prev: Types, Up: Coding style + +2.5 Macros +========== + +If a macro is global, its name must be prefixed with GRUB_ and must +consist of only large letters. Other rules are the same as functions or +variables, depending on whether a macro is used like a function or a +variable. + + +File: grub-dev.info, Node: Comments, Next: Multi-Line Comments, Prev: Macros, Up: Coding style + +2.6 Comments +============ + +All comments shall be C-style comments, of the form '/* ... */'. A +comment can be placed immediately preceding the entity it describes or +it can be placed together with code, variable declarations, or other +non-comment entities. However, it is recommended to not mix various +forms especially in types/structs descriptions. + + Acceptable: + /* The page # that is the front buffer. */ + int displayed_page; + + int render_page; /* The page # that is the back buffer. */ + + +File: grub-dev.info, Node: Multi-Line Comments, Prev: Comments, Up: Coding style + +2.7 Multi-Line Comments +======================= + +Comments spanning multiple lines shall be formatted with all lines after +the first aligned with the first line. Asterisk characters should be +repeated at the start of each subsequent line. + + Acceptable: + /* + * This is a comment + * which spans multiple lines. + * It is long. + */ + + Unacceptable: + /* This is a comment + which spans multiple lines. + It is long. */ + + /* + * This is a comment + * which spans multiple lines. + * It is long. */ + + /* This is a comment + * which spans multiple lines. + * It is long. + */ + + In particular first unacceptable form makes comment difficult to +distinguish from the code itself. Especially if it contains the code +snippets and/or is long. So, its usage is disallowed. + + +File: grub-dev.info, Node: Finding your way around, Next: Contributing Changes, Prev: Coding style, Up: Top + +3 Finding your way around +************************* + +Here is a brief map of the GRUB code base. + + GRUB uses Autoconf and Automake, with most of the Automake input +generated by a Python script. The top-level build rules are in +'configure.ac', 'grub-core/Makefile.core.def', and 'Makefile.util.def'. +Each block in a '*.def' file represents a build target, and specifies +the source files used to build it on various platforms. The '*.def' +files are processed into Automake input by 'gentpl.py' (which you only +need to look at if you are extending the build system). If you are +adding a new module which follows an existing pattern, such as a new +command or a new filesystem implementation, it is usually easiest to +grep 'grub-core/Makefile.core.def' and 'Makefile.util.def' for an +existing example of that pattern to find out where it should be added. + + In general, code that may be run at boot time is in a subdirectory of +'grub-core', while code that is only run from within a full operating +system is in a subdirectory of the top level. + + Low-level boot code, such as the MBR implementation on PC BIOS +systems, is in the 'grub-core/boot/' directory. + + The GRUB kernel is in 'grub-core/kern/'. This contains core +facilities such as the device, disk, and file frameworks, environment +variable handling, list processing, and so on. The kernel should +contain enough to get up to a rescue prompt. Header files for kernel +facilities, among others, are in 'include/'. + + Terminal implementations are in 'grub-core/term/'. + + Disk access code is spread across 'grub-core/disk/' (for accessing +the disk devices themselves), 'grub-core/partmap/' (for interpreting +partition table data), and 'grub-core/fs/' (for accessing filesystems). +Note that, with the odd specialised exception, GRUB only contains code +to _read_ from filesystems and tries to avoid containing any code to +_write_ to filesystems; this lets us confidently assure users that GRUB +cannot be responsible for filesystem corruption. + + PCI and USB bus handling is in 'grub-core/bus/'. + + Video handling code is in 'grub-core/video/'. The graphical menu +system uses this heavily, but is in a separate directory, +'grub-core/gfxmenu/'. + + Most commands are implemented by files in 'grub-core/commands/', with +the following exceptions: + + * A few core commands live in 'grub-core/kern/corecmd.c'. + + * Commands related to normal mode live under 'grub-core/normal/'. + + * Commands that load and boot kernels live under 'grub-core/loader/'. + + * The 'loopback' command is really a disk device, and so lives in + 'grub-core/disk/loopback.c'. + + * The 'gettext' command lives under 'grub-core/gettext/'. + + * The 'loadfont' and 'lsfonts' commands live under 'grub-core/font/'. + + * The 'serial', 'terminfo', and 'background_image' commands live + under 'grub-core/term/'. + + * The 'efiemu_*' commands live under 'grub-core/efiemu/'. + + * OS-dependent code should be under 'grub-core/osdep/' + + * Utility programs meant to be run from a full operating system + (except OS-dependent code mentioned previously) are in 'util/'. + + There are a few other special-purpose exceptions; grep for them if +they matter to you. + + +File: grub-dev.info, Node: Contributing Changes, Next: Updating External Code, Prev: Finding your way around, Up: Top + +4 Contributing changes +********************** + +Contributing changes to GRUB 2 is welcomed activity. However we have a +bit of control what kind of changes will be accepted to GRUB 2. +Therefore it is important to discuss your changes on grub-devel mailing +list (see MailingLists). On this page there are some basic details on +the development process and activities. + + First of all you should come up with the idea yourself what you want +to contribute. If you do not have that beforehand you are advised to +study this manual and try GRUB 2 out to see what you think is missing +from there. + + Here are additional pointers: + * <https://savannah.gnu.org/task/?group=grub GRUB's Task Tracker> + * <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?group=grub GRUB's Bug Tracker> + + If you intended to make changes to GRUB Legacy (<=0.97) those are not +accepted anymore. + +* Menu: + +* Getting started:: +* Typical Developer Experience:: +* When you are approved for write access to project's files:: + + +File: grub-dev.info, Node: Getting started, Next: Typical Developer Experience, Up: Contributing Changes + +4.1 Getting started +=================== + + * Always use latest GRUB 2 source code. So get that first. + + For developers it is recommended always to use the newest + development version of GRUB 2. If development takes a long period + of time, please remember to keep in sync with newest developments + regularly so it is much easier to integrate your change in the + future. GRUB 2 is being developed in a GIT repository. + + Please check Savannah's GRUB project page for details how to get + newest git: GRUB 2 git Repository + (https://savannah.gnu.org/git/?group=grub) + + * Compile it and try it out. + + It is always good idea to first see that things work somehow and + after that to start to implement new features or develop fixes to + bugs. + + * Study the code. + + There are sometimes odd ways to do things in GRUB 2 code base. + This is mainly related to limited environment where GRUB 2 is being + executed. You usually do not need to understand it all so it is + better to only try to look at places that relates to your work. + Please do not hesitate to ask for help if there is something that + you do not understand. + + * Develop a new feature. + + Now that you know what to do and how it should work in GRUB 2 code + base, please be free to develop it. If you have not so far + announced your idea on grub-devel mailing list, please do it now. + This is to make sure you are not wasting your time working on the + solution that will not be integrated to GRUB 2 code base. + + You might want to study our coding style before starting + development so you do not need to change much of the code when your + patch is being reviewed. (see *note Coding style::) + + For every accepted patch there has to exist a ChangeLog entry. Our + ChangeLog consist of changes within source code and are not + describing about what the change logically does. Please see + examples from previous entries. + + Also remember that GRUB 2 is licensed under GPLv3 license and that + usually means that you are not allowed to copy pieces of code from + other projects. Even if the source project's license would be + compatible with GPLv3, please discuss it beforehand on grub-devel + mailing list. + + * Test your change. + + Test that your change works properly. Try it out a couple of + times, preferably on different systems, and try to find problems + with it. + + * Publish your change. + + When you are happy with your change, first make sure it is + compilable with latest development version of GRUB 2. After that + please send a patch to grub-devel for review. Please describe in + your email why you made the change, what it changes and so on. + Please be prepared to receive even discouraging comments about your + patch. There is usually at least something that needs to be + improved in every patch. + + Please use unified diff to make your patch (good match of arguments + for diff is '-pruN'). + + * Respond to received feedback. + + If you are asked to modify your patch, please do that and resubmit + it for review. If your change is large you are required to submit + a copyright agreement to FSF. Please keep in mind that if you are + asked to submit for copyright agreement, process can take some time + and is mandatory in order to get your changes integrated. + + If you are not on grub-devel to respond to questions, most likely + your patch will not be accepted. Also if problems arise from your + changes later on, it would be preferable that you also fix the + problem. So stay around for a while. + + * Your patch is accepted. + + Good job! Your patch will now be integrated into GRUB 2 mainline, + and if it didn't break anything it will be publicly available in + the next release. + + Now you are welcome to do further improvements :) + + +File: grub-dev.info, Node: Typical Developer Experience, Next: When you are approved for write access to project's files, Prev: Getting started, Up: Contributing Changes + +4.2 Typical Developer Experience +================================ + +The typical experience for a developer in this project is the following: + + 1. You find yourself wanting to do something (e.g. fixing a bug). + 2. You show some result in the mailing list or the IRC. + 3. You are getting to be known to other developers. + 4. You accumulate significant amount of contribution, so copyright + assignment is processed. + 5. You are free to check in your changes on your own, legally + speaking. + + At this point, it is rather annoying that you ought to ask somebody +else every change to be checked in. For efficiency, it is far better, +if you can commit it yourself. Therefore, our policy is to give you the +write permission to our official repository, once you have shown your +skill and will, and the FSF clerks have dealt with your copyright +assignment. + + +File: grub-dev.info, Node: When you are approved for write access to project's files, Prev: Typical Developer Experience, Up: Contributing Changes + +4.3 When you are approved for write access to project's files +============================================================= + +As you might know, GRUB is hosted on +<https://savannah.gnu.org/projects/grub Savannah>, thus the membership +is managed by Savannah. This means that, if you want to be a member of +this project: + + 1. You need to create your own account on Savannah. + 2. You can submit "Request for Inclusion" from "My Groups" on + Savannah. + + Then, one of the admins can approve your request, and you will be a +member. If you don't want to use the Savannah interface to submit a +request, you can simply notify the admins by email or something else, +alternatively. But you still need to create an account beforehand. + + NOTE: we sometimes receive a "Request for Inclusion" from an unknown +person. In this case, the request would be just discarded, since it is +too dangerous to allow a stranger to be a member, which automatically +gives him a commit right to the repository, both for a legal reason and +for a technical reason. + + If your intention is to just get started, please do not submit a +inclusion request.

But because +of the nature of bootloader every new port must be done separately. +Here is how I did MIPS (loongson and ARC) and Xen ports. Note than this +is more of suggestions, not absolute truth. + + First of all grab any architecture specifications you can find in +public (please avoid NDA). + + First stage is "Hello world". I've done it outside of GRUB for +simplicity. Your task is to have a small program which is loadable as +bootloader and clearly shows its presence to you. If you have easily +accessible console you can just print a message. If you have a mapped +framebuffer you know address of, you can draw a square. If you have a +debug facility, just hanging without crashing might be enough. For the +first stage you can choose to load the bootloader across the network +since format for network image is often easier than for local boot and +it skips the need of small intermediary stages and nvram handling. +Additionally you can often have a good idea of the needed format by +running "file" on any netbootable executable for given platform. + + This program should probably have 2 parts: an assembler and C one. +Assembler one handles BSS cleaning and other needed setup (on some +platforms you may need to switch modes or copy the executable to its +definitive position). So your code may look like (x86 assembly for +illustration purposes) + + .globl _start + _start: + movl $_bss_start, %edi + movl $_end, %ecx + subl %edi, %ecx + xorl %eax, %eax + cld + rep + stosb + call main + + + static const char msg[] = "Hello, world"; + + void + putchar (int c) + { + ... + } + + void + main (void) + { + const char *ptr = msg; + while (*ptr) + putchar (*ptr++); + while (1); + } + + Sometimes you need a third file: assembly stubs for +ABI-compatibility. + + Once this file is functional it's time to move it into GRUB2. The +startup assembly file goes to grub-core/kern/$cpu/$platform/startup.S. +You should also include grub/symbol.h and replace call to entry point +with call to EXT_C(grub_main). The C file goes to +grub-core/kern/$cpu/$platform/init.c and its entry point is renamed to +void grub_machine_init (void). Keep final infinite loop for now. Stubs +file if any goes to grub-core/kern/$cpu/$platform/callwrap.S. Sometimes +either $cpu or $platform is dropped if file is used on several cpus +respectivelyplatforms. Check those locations if they already have what +you're looking for. + + Then modify in configure.ac the following parts: + + CPU names: + + case "$target_cpu" in + i[[3456]]86) target_cpu=i386 ;; + amd64) target_cpu=x86_64 ;; + sparc) target_cpu=sparc64 ;; + s390x) target_cpu=s390 ;; + ... + esac + + Sometimes CPU have additional architecture names which don't +influence booting. You might want to have some canonical name to avoid +having bunch of identical platforms with different names. + + NOTE: it doesn't influence compile optimisations which depend solely +on chosen compiler and compile options. + + if test "x$with_platform" = x; then + case "$target_cpu"-"$target_vendor" in + i386-apple) platform=efi ;; + i386-*) platform=pc ;; + x86_64-apple) platform=efi ;; + x86_64-*) platform=pc ;; + powerpc-*) platform=ieee1275 ;; + ... + esac + else + ... + fi + + This part deals with guessing the platform from CPU and vendor. +Sometimes you need to use 32-bit mode for booting even if OS runs in +64-bit one. If so add your platform to: + + case "$target_cpu"-"$platform" in + x86_64-efi) ;; + x86_64-emu) ;; + x86_64-*) target_cpu=i386 ;; + powerpc64-ieee1275) target_cpu=powerpc ;; + esac + + Add your platform to the list of supported ones: + + case "$target_cpu"-"$platform" in + i386-efi) ;; + x86_64-efi) ;; + i386-pc) ;; + i386-multiboot) ;; + i386-coreboot) ;; + ... + esac + + If explicit -m32 or -m64 is needed add it to: + + case "$target_cpu" in + i386 | powerpc) target_m32=1 ;; + x86_64 | sparc64) target_m64=1 ;; + esac + + Finally you need to add a conditional to the following block: + + AM_CONDITIONAL([COND_mips_arc], [test x$target_cpu = xmips -a x$platform = xarc]) + AM_CONDITIONAL([COND_sparc64_ieee1275], [test x$target_cpu = xsparc64 -a x$platform = xieee1275]) + AM_CONDITIONAL([COND_powerpc_ieee1275], [test x$target_cpu = xpowerpc -a x$platform = xieee1275]) + + Next stop is gentpl.py. You need to add your platform to the list of +supported ones (sorry that this list is duplicated): + + GRUB_PLATFORMS = [ "emu", "i386_pc", "i386_efi", "i386_qemu", "i386_coreboot", + "i386_multiboot", "i386_ieee1275", "x86_64_efi", + "mips_loongson", "sparc64_ieee1275", + "powerpc_ieee1275", "mips_arc", "ia64_efi", + "mips_qemu_mips", "s390_mainframe" ] + + You may also want already to add new platform to one or several of +available groups. In particular we always have a group for each CPU +even when only one platform for given CPU is available. + + Then comes grub-core/Makefile.core.def. In the block "kernel" you'll +need to define ldflags for your platform ($cpu_$platform_ldflags). You +also need to declare startup asm file ($cpu_$platform_startup) as well +as any other files (e.g. init.c and callwrap.S) (e.g. $cpu_$platform = +kern/$cpu/$platform/init.c). At this stage you will also need to add +dummy dl.c and cache.S with functions grub_err_t +grub_arch_dl_check_header (void *ehdr), grub_err_t +grub_arch_dl_relocate_symbols (grub_dl_t mod, void *ehdr) (dl.c) and +void grub_arch_sync_caches (void *address, grub_size_t len) (cache.S). +They won't be used for now. + + You will need to create directory include/$cpu/$platform and a file +include/$cpu/types.h. The later folowing this template: + + #ifndef GRUB_TYPES_CPU_HEADER + #define GRUB_TYPES_CPU_HEADER 1 + + /* The size of void *. */ + #define GRUB_TARGET_SIZEOF_VOID_P 4 + + /* The size of long. */ + #define GRUB_TARGET_SIZEOF_LONG 4 + + /* mycpu is big-endian. */ + #define GRUB_TARGET_WORDS_BIGENDIAN 1 + /* Alternatively: mycpu is little-endian. */ + #undef GRUB_TARGET_WORDS_BIGENDIAN + + #endif /* ! GRUB_TYPES_CPU_HEADER */ + + You will also need to add a dummy file to datetime and setjmp modules +to avoid any of it having no files. It can be just completely empty at +this stage. + + You'll need to make grub-mkimage.c (util/grub_mkimage.c) aware of the +needed format. For most commonly used formats like ELF, PE, aout or raw +the support is already present and you'll need to make it follow the +existant code paths for your platform adding adjustments if necessary. +When done compile: + + ./bootstrap + ./configure --target=$cpu --with-platform=$platform TARGET_CC=.. OBJCOPY=... STRIP=... + make > /dev/null + + And create image + + ./grub-mkimage -d grub-core -O $format_id -o test.img + + And it's time to test your test.img. + + If it works next stage is to have heap, console and timer. + + To have the heap working you need to determine which regions are +suitable for heap usage, allocate them from firmware and map (if +applicable). Then call grub_mm_init_region (vois *start, grub_size_t s) +for every of this region. As a shortcut for early port you can allocate +right after _end or have a big static array for heap. If you do you'll +probably need to come back to this later. As for output console you +should distinguish between an array of text, terminfo or graphics-based +console. Many of real-world examples don't fit perfectly into any of +these categories but one of the models is easier to be used as base. In +second and third case you should add your platform to terminfokernel +respectively videoinkernel group. A good example of array of text is +i386-pc (kern/i386/pc/init.c and term/i386/pc/console.c). Of terminfo +is ieee1275 (kern/ieee1275/init.c and term/ieee1275/console.c). Of +video is loongson (kern/mips/loongson/init.c). Note that terminfo has +to be inited in 2 stages: one before (to get at least rudimentary +console as early as possible) and another after the heap (to get +full-featured console). For the input there are string of keys, +terminfo and direct hardware. For string of keys look at i386-pc (same +files), for terminfo ieee1275 (same files) and for hardware loongson +(kern/mips/loongson/init.c and term/at_keyboard.c). + + For the timer you'll need to call grub_install_get_time_ms (...) +with as sole argument a function returning a grub_uint64_t of a number +of milliseconds elapsed since arbitrary point in the past. + + Once these steps accomplished you can remove the inifinite loop and +you should be able to get to the minimal console. Next step is to have +module loading working. For this you'll need to fill kern/$cpu/dl.c and +kern/$cpu/cache.S with real handling of relocations and respectively the +real sync of I and D caches. Also you'll need to decide where in the +image to store the modules. Usual way is to have it concatenated at the +end. In this case you'll need to modify startup.S to copy modules out +of bss to let's say ALIGN_UP (_end, 8) before cleaning out bss. You'll +probably find useful to add total_module_size field to startup.S. In +init.c you need to set grub_modbase to the address where modules can be +found. You may need grub_modules_get_end () to avoid declaring the +space occupied by modules as usable for heap. You can test modules +with: + + ./grub-mkimage -d grub-core -O $format_id -o test.img hello + + and then running "hello" in the shell. + + Once this works, you should think of implementing disk access. Look +around disk/ for examples. + + Then, very importantly, you probably need to implement the actual +loader (examples available in loader/) + + Last step to have minimally usable port is to add support to +grub-install to put GRUB in a place where firmware or platform will pick +it up. + + Next steps are: filling datetime.c, setjmp.S, network (net/drivers), +video (video/), halt (lib/), reboot (lib/). + + Please add your platform to Platform limitations and Supported +kernels chapter in user documentation and mention any steps you skipped +which result in reduced features or performance. Here is the quick +checklist of features. Some of them are less important than others and +skipping them is completely ok, just needs to be mentioned in user +documentation. + + Checklist: + * Is heap big enough? + * Which charset is supported by console? + * Does platform have disk driver? + * Do you have network card support? + * Are you able to retrieve datetime (with date)? + * Are you able to set datetime (with date)? + * Is serial supported? + * Do you have direct disk support? + * Do you have direct keyboard support? + * Do you have USB support? + * Do you support loading through network? + * Do you support loading from disk? + * Do you support chainloading? + * Do you support network chainloading? + * Does cpuid command supports checking all CPU features that the user + might want conditionalise on (64-bit mode, hypervisor,...) + * Do you support hints?

As C +language doesn't directly support exceptions, exception handling +behavior is emulated in software. + + When exception is raised, function must return to calling function. +If calling function does not provide handling of the exception it must +return back to its calling function and so on, until exception is +handled. If exception is not handled before prompt is displayed, error +message will be shown to user. + + Exception information is stored on 'grub_errno' global variable. If +'grub_errno' variable contains value 'GRUB_ERR_NONE', there is no active +exception and application can continue normal processing. When +'grub_errno' has other value, it is required that application code +either handles this error or returns instantly to caller. If function +is with return type 'grub_err_t' is about to return 'GRUB_ERR_NONE', it +should not set 'grub_errno' to that value. Only set 'grub_errno' in +cases where there is error situation. + + Simple exception forwarder. + grub_err_t + forwarding_example (void) + { + /* Call function that might cause exception. */ + foobar (); + + /* No special exception handler, just forward possible exceptions. */ + if (grub_errno != GRUB_ERR_NONE) + { + return grub_errno; + } + + /* All is OK, do more processing. */ + + /* Return OK signal, to caller. */ + return GRUB_ERR_NONE; + } + + Error reporting has two components, the actual error code (of type +'grub_err_t') and textual message that will be displayed to user. List +of valid error codes is listed in header file 'include/grub/err.h'. +Textual error message can contain any textual data. At time of writing, +error message can contain up to 256 characters (including terminating +NUL). To ease error reporting there is a helper function 'grub_error' +that allows easier formatting of error messages and should be used +instead of writing directly to global variables. + + Example of error reporting. + grub_err_t + failing_example () + { + return grub_error (GRUB_ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND, + "Failed to read %s, tried %d times.", + "test.txt", + 10); + } + + If there is a special reason that error code does not need to be +taken account, 'grub_errno' can be zeroed back to 'GRUB_ERR_NONE'. In +cases like this all previous error codes should have been handled +correctly. This makes sure that there are no unhandled exceptions. + + Example of zeroing 'grub_errno'. + grub_err_t + probe_example () + { + /* Try to probe device type 1. */ + probe_for_device (); + if (grub_errno == GRUB_ERR_NONE) + { + /* Device type 1 was found on system. */ + register_device (); + return GRUB_ERR_NONE; + } + /* Zero out error code. */ + grub_errno = GRUB_ERR_NONE; + + /* No device type 1 found, try to probe device type 2. */ + probe_for_device2 (); + if (grub_errno == GRUB_ERR_NONE) + { + /* Device type 2 was found on system. */ + register_device2 (); + return GRUB_ERR_NONE; + } + /* Zero out error code. */ + grub_errno = GRUB_ERR_NONE; + + /* Return custom error message. */ + return grub_error (GRUB_ERR_UNKNOWN_DEVICE, "No device type 1 or 2 found."); + } + + Some times there is a need to continue processing even if there is a +error state in application. In situations like this, there is a needed +to save old error state and then call other functions that might fail. +To aid in this, there is a error stack implemented. Error state can be +pushed to error stack by calling function 'grub_error_push ()'. When +processing has been completed, 'grub_error_pop ()' can be used to pop +error state from stack. Error stack contains predefined amount of error +stack items. Error stack is protected for overflow and marks these +situations so overflow error does not get unseen. If there is no space +available to store error message, it is simply discarded and overflow +will be marked as happened. When overflow happens, it most likely will +corrupt error stack consistency as for pushed error there is no matching +pop, but overflow message will be shown to inform user about the +situation. Overflow message will be shown at time when prompt is about +to be drawn. + + Example usage of error stack. + /* Save possible old error message. */ + grub_error_push (); + + /* Do your stuff here. */ + call_possibly_failing_function (); + + if (grub_errno != GRUB_ERR_NONE) + { + /* Inform rest of the code that there is error (grub_errno + is set). There is no pop here as we want both error states + to be displayed. */ + return; + } + + /* Restore old error state by popping previous item from stack. */ + grub_error_pop (); + + +File: grub-dev.info, Node: Stack and heap size, Next: BIOS port memory map, Prev: Error Handling, Up: Top + +8 Stack and heap size +********************* + +On emu stack and heap are just normal host OS stack and heap.

Since GRUB will only be reading the font + files, we are more concerned with making the code to read the font + simple than we are with writing the font. + + * Compact storage.

This must be the first section in + the file. It has length 4 and the contents are the four bytes of + the ASCII string 'PFF2'. + +'NAME' + *Font name* (ASCII string).

Components can be added to containers, +and containers (which are a type of component) can then be added to +other containers, to form a tree of components. Currently, the root +component of this tree is a 'canvas' component, which allows manual +layout of its child components. + + Components (non-container): + + * label + * image + * progress_bar + * circular_progress + * list (currently hard coded to be a boot menu list) + + Containers: + + * canvas + * hbox + * vbox + + The GUI component instances are created by the theme loader in +'gfxmenu/theme_loader.c' when a theme is loaded. Theme files specify +statements such as '+vbox{ +label { text="Hello" } +label{ text="World" +} }' to add components to the component tree root. By nesting the +component creation statements in the theme file, the instantiated +components are nested the same way. + + When a component is added to a container, that new child is +considered *owned* by the container. Great care should be taken if the +caller retains a reference to the child component, since it will be +destroyed if its parent container is destroyed. A better choice instead +of storing a pointer to the child component is to use the component ID +to find the desired component. Component IDs do not have to be unique +(it is often useful to have multiple components with an ID of +"__timeout__", for instance). + + In order to access and use components in the component tree, there +are two functions (defined in 'gfxmenu/gui_util.c') that are +particularly useful: + + * 'grub_gui_find_by_id (root, id, callback, userdata)': + + This function ecursively traverses the component tree rooted at + ROOT, and for every component that has an ID equal to ID, calls the + function pointed to by CALLBACK with the matching component and the + void pointer USERDATA as arguments. The callback function can do + whatever is desired to use the component passed in. + + * 'grub_gui_iterate_recursively (root, callback, userdata)': + + This function calls the function pointed to by CALLBACK for every + component that is a descendant of ROOT in the component tree. When + the callback function is called, the component and the void pointer + USERDATA as arguments. The callback function can do whatever is + desired to use the component passed in. + + +File: grub-dev.info, Node: Command Line Window, Prev: GUI Components, Up: Graphical Menu Software Design + +12.4 Command Line Window +======================== + +The terminal window used to provide command line access within the +graphical menu is managed by 'gfxmenu/view.c'. The 'gfxterm' terminal +is used, and it has been modified to allow rendering to an offscreen +render target to allow it to be composed into the double buffering +system that the graphical menu view uses. This is bad for performance, +however, so it would probably be a good idea to make it possible to +temporarily disable double buffering as long as the terminal window is +visible. There are still unresolved problems that occur when commands +are executed from the terminal window that change the graphics mode. +It's possible that making 'grub_video_restore()' return to the graphics +mode that was in use before 'grub_video_setup()' was called might fix +some of the problems. + + +File: grub-dev.info, Node: Verifiers framework, Next: Lockdown framework, Prev: Graphical Menu Software Design, Up: Top + +13 Verifiers framework +********************** + +To register your own verifier call 'grub_verifier_register' with a +structure pointing to your functions. + + The interface is inspired by the hash interface with +'init'/'write'/'fini'. + + There are essentially 2 ways of using it, hashing and whole-file +verification. + + With the hashing approach: During 'init' you decide whether you want +to check the given file and init context. In 'write' you update your +hashing state. In 'fini' you check that the hash matches the expected +value/passes some check/... + + With whole-file verification: During 'init' you decide whether you +want to check the given file and init context. In 'write' you verify +the file and return an error if it fails. You don't have 'fini'. + + Additional 'verify_string' receives various strings like kernel +parameters to verify. Returning no error means successful verification +and an error stops the current action. + + Detailed description of the API: + + Every time a file is opened your 'init' function is called with file +descriptor and file type. Your function can have the following +outcomes: + + * returning no error and setting '*flags' to + 'GRUB_VERIFY_FLAGS_DEFER_AUTH'. In this case verification is + deferred to other active verifiers. Verification fails if nobody + cares or selected verifier fails. + + * returning no error and setting '*flags' to + 'GRUB_VERIFY_FLAGS_SKIP_VERIFICATION'. In this case your verifier + will not be called anymore and it is assumed to have skipped + verification. + + * returning no error and not setting '*flags' to + 'GRUB_VERIFY_FLAGS_SKIP_VERIFICATION' In this case verification is + done as described in the following section. + + * returning an error. Then opening of the file will fail due to + failed verification. + + In the third case your 'write' will be called with chunks of the +file. If you need the whole file in a single chunk then during 'init' +set the bit 'GRUB_VERIFY_FLAGS_SINGLE_CHUNK' in '*flags'. During 'init' +you may set '*context' if you need additional context. At every +iteration you may return an error and the file will be considered as +having failed the verification. If you return no error then +verification continues. + + Optionally at the end of the file 'fini', if it exists, is called +with just the context. If you return no error during any of 'init', +'write' and 'fini' then the file is considered as having succeded +verification. + + +File: grub-dev.info, Node: Lockdown framework, Next: Copying This Manual, Prev: Verifiers framework, Up: Top + +14 Lockdown framework +********************* + +The GRUB can be locked down, which is a restricted mode where some +operations are not allowed.

PREAMBLE + + The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other + functional and useful document "free" in the sense of freedom: to + assure everyone the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it, + with or without modifying it, either commercially or + noncommercially. Secondarily, this License preserves for the + author and publisher a way to get credit for their work, while not + being considered responsible for modifications made by others. + + This License is a kind of "copyleft", which means that derivative + works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense. + It complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft + license designed for free software. + + We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for + free software, because free software needs free documentation: a + free program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms + that the software does. But this License is not limited to + software manuals; it can be used for any textual work, regardless + of subject matter or whether it is published as a printed book. We + recommend this License principally for works whose purpose is + instruction or reference. + + 1. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS + + This License applies to any manual or other work, in any medium, + that contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can + be distributed under the terms of this License. Such a notice + grants a world-wide, royalty-free license, unlimited in duration, + to use that work under the conditions stated herein. The + "Document", below, refers to any such manual or work. Any member + of the public is a licensee, and is addressed as "you". You accept + the license if you copy, modify or distribute the work in a way + requiring permission under copyright law. + + A "Modified Version" of the Document means any work containing the + Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with + modifications and/or translated into another language. + + A "Secondary Section" is a named appendix or a front-matter section + of the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the + publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall + subject (or to related matters) and contains nothing that could + fall directly within that overall subject. (Thus, if the Document + is in part a textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not + explain any mathematics.) The relationship could be a matter of + historical connection with the subject or with related matters, or + of legal, commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position + regarding them. + + The "Invariant Sections" are certain Secondary Sections whose + titles are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in the + notice that says that the Document is released under this License. + If a section does not fit the above definition of Secondary then it + is not allowed to be designated as Invariant. The Document may + contain zero Invariant Sections. If the Document does not identify + any Invariant Sections then there are none. + + The "Cover Texts" are certain short passages of text that are + listed, as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice + that says that the Document is released under this License. A + Front-Cover Text may be at most 5 words, and a Back-Cover Text may + be at most 25 words. + + A "Transparent" copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy, + represented in a format whose specification is available to the + general public, that is suitable for revising the document + straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images composed + of pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely + available drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to text + formatters or for automatic translation to a variety of formats + suitable for input to text formatters. A copy made in an otherwise + Transparent file format whose markup, or absence of markup, has + been arranged to thwart or discourage subsequent modification by + readers is not Transparent. An image format is not Transparent if + used for any substantial amount of text. A copy that is not + "Transparent" is called "Opaque". + + Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain + ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format, + SGML or XML using a publicly available DTD, and standard-conforming + simple HTML, PostScript or PDF designed for human modification. + Examples of transparent image formats include PNG, XCF and JPG. + Opaque formats include proprietary formats that can be read and + edited only by proprietary word processors, SGML or XML for which + the DTD and/or processing tools are not generally available, and + the machine-generated HTML, PostScript or PDF produced by some word + processors for output purposes only. + + The "Title Page" means, for a printed book, the title page itself, + plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the + material this License requires to appear in the title page. For + works in formats which do not have any title page as such, "Title + Page" means the text near the most prominent appearance of the + work's title, preceding the beginning of the body of the text. + + A section "Entitled XYZ" means a named subunit of the Document + whose title either is precisely XYZ or contains XYZ in parentheses + following text that translates XYZ in another language. (Here XYZ + stands for a specific section name mentioned below, such as + "Acknowledgements", "Dedications", "Endorsements", or "History".) + To "Preserve the Title" of such a section when you modify the + Document means that it remains a section "Entitled XYZ" according + to this definition. + + The Document may include Warranty Disclaimers next to the notice + which states that this License applies to the Document. These + Warranty Disclaimers are considered to be included by reference in + this License, but only as regards disclaiming warranties: any other + implication that these Warranty Disclaimers may have is void and + has no effect on the meaning of this License. + + 2. VERBATIM COPYING + + You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either + commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the + copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License + applies to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you + add no other conditions whatsoever to those of this License. You + may not use technical measures to obstruct or control the reading + or further copying of the copies you make or distribute. However, + you may accept compensation in exchange for copies. If you + distribute a large enough number of copies you must also follow the + conditions in section 3. + + You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above, + and you may publicly display copies. + + 3. COPYING IN QUANTITY + + If you publish printed copies (or copies in media that commonly + have printed covers) of the Document, numbering more than 100, and + the Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must + enclose the copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all + these Cover Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and + Back-Cover Texts on the back cover. Both covers must also clearly + and legibly identify you as the publisher of these copies. The + front cover must present the full title with all words of the title + equally prominent and visible. You may add other material on the + covers in addition. Copying with changes limited to the covers, as + long as they preserve the title of the Document and satisfy these + conditions, can be treated as verbatim copying in other respects. + + If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit + legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit + reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto + adjacent pages. + + If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document + numbering more than 100, you must either include a machine-readable + Transparent copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with + each Opaque copy a computer-network location from which the general + network-using public has access to download using public-standard + network protocols a complete Transparent copy of the Document, free + of added material. If you use the latter option, you must take + reasonably prudent steps, when you begin distribution of Opaque + copies in quantity, to ensure that this Transparent copy will + remain thus accessible at the stated location until at least one + year after the last time you distribute an Opaque copy (directly or + through your agents or retailers) of that edition to the public. + + It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of + the Document well before redistributing any large number of copies, + to give them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the + Document. + + 4. MODIFICATIONS + + You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document + under the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you + release the Modified Version under precisely this License, with the + Modified Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing + distribution and modification of the Modified Version to whoever + possesses a copy of it. In addition, you must do these things in + the Modified Version: + + A. Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title + distinct from that of the Document, and from those of previous + versions (which should, if there were any, be listed in the + History section of the Document). You may use the same title + as a previous version if the original publisher of that + version gives permission. + + B. List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or + entities responsible for authorship of the modifications in + the Modified Version, together with at least five of the + principal authors of the Document (all of its principal + authors, if it has fewer than five), unless they release you + from this requirement. + + C. State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the + Modified Version, as the publisher. + + D. Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document. + + E. Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications + adjacent to the other copyright notices. + + F. Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license + notice giving the public permission to use the Modified + Version under the terms of this License, in the form shown in + the Addendum below. + + G. Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant + Sections and required Cover Texts given in the Document's + license notice. + + H. Include an unaltered copy of this License. + + I. Preserve the section Entitled "History", Preserve its Title, + and add to it an item stating at least the title, year, new + authors, and publisher of the Modified Version as given on the + Title Page. If there is no section Entitled "History" in the + Document, create one stating the title, year, authors, and + publisher of the Document as given on its Title Page, then add + an item describing the Modified Version as stated in the + previous sentence. + + J. Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document + for public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and + likewise the network locations given in the Document for + previous versions it was based on. These may be placed in the + "History" section. You may omit a network location for a work + that was published at least four years before the Document + itself, or if the original publisher of the version it refers + to gives permission. + + K. For any section Entitled "Acknowledgements" or "Dedications", + Preserve the Title of the section, and preserve in the section + all the substance and tone of each of the contributor + acknowledgements and/or dedications given therein. + + L. Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document, unaltered + in their text and in their titles. Section numbers or the + equivalent are not considered part of the section titles. + + M. Delete any section Entitled "Endorsements". Such a section + may not be included in the Modified Version. + + N. Do not retitle any existing section to be Entitled + "Endorsements" or to conflict in title with any Invariant + Section. + + O. Preserve any Warranty Disclaimers. + + If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or + appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no + material copied from the Document, you may at your option designate + some or all of these sections as invariant. To do this, add their + titles to the list of Invariant Sections in the Modified Version's + license notice. These titles must be distinct from any other + section titles. + + You may add a section Entitled "Endorsements", provided it contains + nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various + parties--for example, statements of peer review or that the text + has been approved by an organization as the authoritative + definition of a standard. + + You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text, + and a passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of + the list of Cover Texts in the Modified Version. Only one passage + of Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or + through arrangements made by) any one entity. If the Document + already includes a cover text for the same cover, previously added + by you or by arrangement made by the same entity you are acting on + behalf of, you may not add another; but you may replace the old + one, on explicit permission from the previous publisher that added + the old one. + + The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this + License give permission to use their names for publicity for or to + assert or imply endorsement of any Modified Version. + + 5. COMBINING DOCUMENTS + + You may combine the Document with other documents released under + this License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for + modified versions, provided that you include in the combination all + of the Invariant Sections of all of the original documents, + unmodified, and list them all as Invariant Sections of your + combined work in its license notice, and that you preserve all + their Warranty Disclaimers. + + The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and + multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single + copy. If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name + but different contents, make the title of each such section unique + by adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the + original author or publisher of that section if known, or else a + unique number. Make the same adjustment to the section titles in + the list of Invariant Sections in the license notice of the + combined work. + + In the combination, you must combine any sections Entitled + "History" in the various original documents, forming one section + Entitled "History"; likewise combine any sections Entitled + "Acknowledgements", and any sections Entitled "Dedications". You + must delete all sections Entitled "Endorsements." + + 6. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS + + You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other + documents released under this License, and replace the individual + copies of this License in the various documents with a single copy + that is included in the collection, provided that you follow the + rules of this License for verbatim copying of each of the documents + in all other respects. + + You may extract a single document from such a collection, and + distribute it individually under this License, provided you insert + a copy of this License into the extracted document, and follow this + License in all other respects regarding verbatim copying of that + document. + + 7. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS + + A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other + separate and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a + storage or distribution medium, is called an "aggregate" if the + copyright resulting from the compilation is not used to limit the + legal rights of the compilation's users beyond what the individual + works permit. When the Document is included in an aggregate, this + License does not apply to the other works in the aggregate which + are not themselves derivative works of the Document. + + If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these + copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one half + of the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed + on covers that bracket the Document within the aggregate, or the + electronic equivalent of covers if the Document is in electronic + form. Otherwise they must appear on printed covers that bracket + the whole aggregate. + + 8. TRANSLATION + + Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may + distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section + 4. Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special + permission from their copyright holders, but you may include + translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the + original versions of these Invariant Sections. You may include a + translation of this License, and all the license notices in the + Document, and any Warranty Disclaimers, provided that you also + include the original English version of this License and the + original versions of those notices and disclaimers. In case of a + disagreement between the translation and the original version of + this License or a notice or disclaimer, the original version will + prevail. + + If a section in the Document is Entitled "Acknowledgements", + "Dedications", or "History", the requirement (section 4) to + Preserve its Title (section 1) will typically require changing the + actual title. + + 9. TERMINATION + + You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document + except as expressly provided for under this License. Any other + attempt to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Document is + void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this + License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, + from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated + so long as such parties remain in full compliance. + + 10. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE + + The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions of + the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time. Such new + versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may + differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. See + <http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/>. + + Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version + number. If the Document specifies that a particular numbered + version of this License "or any later version" applies to it, you + have the option of following the terms and conditions either of + that specified version or of any later version that has been + published (not as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation. If the + Document does not specify a version number of this License, you may + choose any version ever published (not as a draft) by the Free + Software Foundation. + +A.1.1 ADDENDUM: How to use this License for your documents +---------------------------------------------------------- + +To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of +the License in the document and put the following copyright and license +notices just after the title page: + + Copyright (C) YEAR YOUR NAME. + Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document + under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 + or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation; + with no Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover + Texts.

The all capital form is used only by macros. + +@node Functions +@section Functions + +If a function is global, its name must be prefixed with grub_ and must consist of only small letters. If the function belongs to a specific function module, the name must also be prefixed with the module name. For example, if a function is for file systems, its name is prefixed with grub_fs_. If a function is for FAT file system but not for all file systems, its name is prefixed with grub_fs_fat_. The hierarchy is noted this way. + +After a prefix, a function name must start with a verb (such as get or is). It must not be a noun. Some kind of abbreviation is permitted, as long as it wouldn't make code less readable (e.g. init). + +If a function is local, its name may not start with any prefix. It must start with a verb. + +@node Variables +@section Variables + +The rule is mostly the same as functions, as noted above. If a variable is global, its name must be prefixed with grub_ and must consist of only small letters. If the variable belongs to a specific function module, the name must also be prefixed with the module name. For example, if a function is for dynamic loading, its name is prefixed with grub_dl_. If a variable is for ELF but not for all dynamic loading systems, its name is prefixed with grub_dl_elf_. + +After a prefix, a variable name must start with a noun or an adjective (such as name or long) and it should end with a noun.

So, its usage is disallowed. + +@node Finding your way around +@chapter Finding your way around + +Here is a brief map of the GRUB code base. + +GRUB uses Autoconf and Automake, with most of the Automake input generated +by a Python script. The top-level build rules are in @file{configure.ac}, +@file{grub-core/Makefile.core.def}, and @file{Makefile.util.def}. Each +block in a @file{*.def} file represents a build target, and specifies the +source files used to build it on various platforms. The @file{*.def} files +are processed into Automake input by @file{gentpl.py} (which you only need +to look at if you are extending the build system). If you are adding a new +module which follows an existing pattern, such as a new command or a new +filesystem implementation, it is usually easiest to grep +@file{grub-core/Makefile.core.def} and @file{Makefile.util.def} for an +existing example of that pattern to find out where it should be added. + +In general, code that may be run at boot time is in a subdirectory of +@file{grub-core}, while code that is only run from within a full operating +system is in a subdirectory of the top level. + +Low-level boot code, such as the MBR implementation on PC BIOS systems, is +in the @file{grub-core/boot/} directory. + +The GRUB kernel is in @file{grub-core/kern/}. This contains core facilities +such as the device, disk, and file frameworks, environment variable +handling, list processing, and so on. The kernel should contain enough to +get up to a rescue prompt. Header files for kernel facilities, among +others, are in @file{include/}. + +Terminal implementations are in @file{grub-core/term/}. + +Disk access code is spread across @file{grub-core/disk/} (for accessing the +disk devices themselves), @file{grub-core/partmap/} (for interpreting +partition table data), and @file{grub-core/fs/} (for accessing filesystems). +Note that, with the odd specialised exception, GRUB only contains code to +@emph{read} from filesystems and tries to avoid containing any code to +@emph{write} to filesystems; this lets us confidently assure users that GRUB +cannot be responsible for filesystem corruption. + +PCI and USB bus handling is in @file{grub-core/bus/}. + +Video handling code is in @file{grub-core/video/}. The graphical menu +system uses this heavily, but is in a separate directory, +@file{grub-core/gfxmenu/}. + +Most commands are implemented by files in @file{grub-core/commands/}, with +the following exceptions: + +@itemize +@item +A few core commands live in @file{grub-core/kern/corecmd.c}. + +@item +Commands related to normal mode live under @file{grub-core/normal/}. + +@item +Commands that load and boot kernels live under @file{grub-core/loader/}. + +@item +The @samp{loopback} command is really a disk device, and so lives in +@file{grub-core/disk/loopback.c}. + +@item +The @samp{gettext} command lives under @file{grub-core/gettext/}. + +@item +The @samp{loadfont} and @samp{lsfonts} commands live under +@file{grub-core/font/}. + +@item +The @samp{serial}, @samp{terminfo}, and @samp{background_image} commands +live under @file{grub-core/term/}. + +@item +The @samp{efiemu_*} commands live under @file{grub-core/efiemu/}. + +@item +OS-dependent code should be under @file{grub-core/osdep/} + +@item +Utility programs meant to be run from a full operating system +(except OS-dependent code mentioned previously) are in @file{util/}. + +@end itemize + +There are a few other special-purpose exceptions; grep for them if they +matter to you. + +@node Contributing Changes +@chapter Contributing changes +@c By YoshinoriOkuji, VesaJääskeläinen, ColinWatson + +Contributing changes to GRUB 2 is welcomed activity.

But because of the +nature of bootloader every new port must be done separately. Here is how I did +MIPS (loongson and ARC) and Xen ports. Note than this is more of suggestions, +not absolute truth. + +First of all grab any architecture specifications you can find in public +(please avoid NDA). + +First stage is ``Hello world''. I've done it outside of GRUB for simplicity. +Your task is to have a small program which is loadable as bootloader and +clearly shows its presence to you. If you have easily accessible console +you can just print a message. If you have a mapped framebuffer you know address +of, you can draw a square. If you have a debug facility, just hanging without +crashing might be enough. For the first stage you can choose to load the +bootloader across the network since format for network image is often easier +than for local boot and it skips the need of small intermediary stages and +nvram handling. Additionally you can often have a good idea of the needed +format by running ``file'' on any netbootable executable for given platform. + +This program should probably have 2 parts: an assembler and C one. Assembler one +handles BSS cleaning and other needed setup (on some platforms you may need +to switch modes or copy the executable to its definitive position). So your code +may look like (x86 assembly for illustration purposes) + +@example + .globl _start +_start: + movl $_bss_start, %edi + movl $_end, %ecx + subl %edi, %ecx + xorl %eax, %eax + cld + rep + stosb + call main +@end example + +@example + +static const char msg[] = "Hello, world"; + +void +putchar (int c) +@{ + ... +@} + +void +main (void) +@{ + const char *ptr = msg; + while (*ptr) + putchar (*ptr++); + while (1); +@} +@end example + +Sometimes you need a third file: assembly stubs for ABI-compatibility. + +Once this file is functional it's time to move it into GRUB2. The startup +assembly file goes to grub-core/kern/$cpu/$platform/startup.S. You should also +include grub/symbol.h and replace call to entry point with call to +EXT_C(grub_main). The C file goes to grub-core/kern/$cpu/$platform/init.c +and its entry point is renamed to void grub_machine_init (void). Keep final +infinite loop for now. Stubs file if any goes to +grub-core/kern/$cpu/$platform/callwrap.S. Sometimes either $cpu or $platform +is dropped if file is used on several cpus respectivelyplatforms. +Check those locations if they already have what you're looking for. + +Then modify in configure.ac the following parts: + +CPU names: + +@example +case "$target_cpu" in + i[[3456]]86) target_cpu=i386 ;; + amd64) target_cpu=x86_64 ;; + sparc) target_cpu=sparc64 ;; + s390x) target_cpu=s390 ;; + ... +esac +@end example + +Sometimes CPU have additional architecture names which don't influence booting. +You might want to have some canonical name to avoid having bunch of identical +platforms with different names. + +NOTE: it doesn't influence compile optimisations which depend solely on +chosen compiler and compile options. + +@example +if test "x$with_platform" = x; then + case "$target_cpu"-"$target_vendor" in + i386-apple) platform=efi ;; + i386-*) platform=pc ;; + x86_64-apple) platform=efi ;; + x86_64-*) platform=pc ;; + powerpc-*) platform=ieee1275 ;; + ... + esac +else + ... +fi +@end example + +This part deals with guessing the platform from CPU and vendor. Sometimes you +need to use 32-bit mode for booting even if OS runs in 64-bit one. If so add +your platform to: + +@example +case "$target_cpu"-"$platform" in + x86_64-efi) ;; + x86_64-emu) ;; + x86_64-*) target_cpu=i386 ;; + powerpc64-ieee1275) target_cpu=powerpc ;; +esac +@end example + +Add your platform to the list of supported ones: + +@example +case "$target_cpu"-"$platform" in + i386-efi) ;; + x86_64-efi) ;; + i386-pc) ;; + i386-multiboot) ;; + i386-coreboot) ;; + ... +esac +@end example + +If explicit -m32 or -m64 is needed add it to: + +@example +case "$target_cpu" in + i386 | powerpc) target_m32=1 ;; + x86_64 | sparc64) target_m64=1 ;; +esac +@end example + +Finally you need to add a conditional to the following block: + +@example +AM_CONDITIONAL([COND_mips_arc], [test x$target_cpu = xmips -a x$platform = xarc]) +AM_CONDITIONAL([COND_sparc64_ieee1275], [test x$target_cpu = xsparc64 -a x$platform = xieee1275]) +AM_CONDITIONAL([COND_powerpc_ieee1275], [test x$target_cpu = xpowerpc -a x$platform = xieee1275]) +@end example + +Next stop is gentpl.py. You need to add your platform to the list of supported +ones (sorry that this list is duplicated): + +@example +GRUB_PLATFORMS = [ "emu", "i386_pc", "i386_efi", "i386_qemu", "i386_coreboot", + "i386_multiboot", "i386_ieee1275", "x86_64_efi", + "mips_loongson", "sparc64_ieee1275", + "powerpc_ieee1275", "mips_arc", "ia64_efi", + "mips_qemu_mips", "s390_mainframe" ] +@end example + +You may also want already to add new platform to one or several of available +groups. In particular we always have a group for each CPU even when only +one platform for given CPU is available. + +Then comes grub-core/Makefile.core.def. In the block ``kernel'' you'll need +to define ldflags for your platform ($cpu_$platform_ldflags). You also need to +declare startup asm file ($cpu_$platform_startup) as well as any other files +(e.g. init.c and callwrap.S) (e.g. $cpu_$platform = kern/$cpu/$platform/init.c). +At this stage you will also need to add dummy dl.c and cache.S with functions +grub_err_t grub_arch_dl_check_header (void *ehdr), grub_err_t +grub_arch_dl_relocate_symbols (grub_dl_t mod, void *ehdr) (dl.c) and +void grub_arch_sync_caches (void *address, grub_size_t len) (cache.S). They +won't be used for now. + +You will need to create directory include/$cpu/$platform and a file +include/$cpu/types.h. The later folowing this template: + +@example +#ifndef GRUB_TYPES_CPU_HEADER +#define GRUB_TYPES_CPU_HEADER 1 + +/* The size of void *. */ +#define GRUB_TARGET_SIZEOF_VOID_P 4 + +/* The size of long. */ +#define GRUB_TARGET_SIZEOF_LONG 4 + +/* mycpu is big-endian. */ +#define GRUB_TARGET_WORDS_BIGENDIAN 1 +/* Alternatively: mycpu is little-endian. */ +#undef GRUB_TARGET_WORDS_BIGENDIAN + +#endif /* ! GRUB_TYPES_CPU_HEADER */ +@end example + +You will also need to add a dummy file to datetime and setjmp modules to +avoid any of it having no files. It can be just completely empty at this stage. + +You'll need to make grub-mkimage.c (util/grub_mkimage.c) aware of the needed +format. For most commonly used formats like ELF, PE, aout or raw the support +is already present and you'll need to make it follow the existant code paths +for your platform adding adjustments if necessary. When done compile: + +@example +./bootstrap +./configure --target=$cpu --with-platform=$platform TARGET_CC=.. OBJCOPY=... STRIP=... +make > /dev/null +@end example + +And create image + +@example +./grub-mkimage -d grub-core -O $format_id -o test.img +@end example + +And it's time to test your test.img. + +If it works next stage is to have heap, console and timer. + +To have the heap working you need to determine which regions are suitable for +heap usage, allocate them from firmware and map (if applicable). Then call +grub_mm_init_region (vois *start, grub_size_t s) for every of this region. +As a shortcut for early port you can allocate right after _end or have +a big static array for heap. If you do you'll probably need to come back to +this later. As for output console you should distinguish between an array of +text, terminfo or graphics-based console. Many of real-world examples don't +fit perfectly into any of these categories but one of the models is easier +to be used as base. In second and third case you should add your platform to +terminfokernel respectively videoinkernel group. A good example of array of +text is i386-pc (kern/i386/pc/init.c and term/i386/pc/console.c). +Of terminfo is ieee1275 (kern/ieee1275/init.c and term/ieee1275/console.c). +Of video is loongson (kern/mips/loongson/init.c). Note that terminfo has +to be inited in 2 stages: one before (to get at least rudimentary console +as early as possible) and another after the heap (to get full-featured console). +For the input there are string of keys, terminfo and direct hardware. For string +of keys look at i386-pc (same files), for terminfo ieee1275 (same files) and for +hardware loongson (kern/mips/loongson/init.c and term/at_keyboard.c). + +For the timer you'll need to call grub_install_get_time_ms (...) with as sole +argument a function returning a grub_uint64_t of a number of milliseconds +elapsed since arbitrary point in the past. + +Once these steps accomplished you can remove the inifinite loop and you should +be able to get to the minimal console. Next step is to have module loading +working. For this you'll need to fill kern/$cpu/dl.c and kern/$cpu/cache.S +with real handling of relocations and respectively the real sync of I and D +caches. Also you'll need to decide where in the image to store the modules. +Usual way is to have it concatenated at the end. In this case you'll need to +modify startup.S to copy modules out of bss to let's say ALIGN_UP (_end, 8) +before cleaning out bss. You'll probably find useful to add total_module_size +field to startup.S. In init.c you need to set grub_modbase to the address +where modules can be found. You may need grub_modules_get_end () to avoid +declaring the space occupied by modules as usable for heap. You can test modules +with: + +@example +./grub-mkimage -d grub-core -O $format_id -o test.img hello +@end example + +and then running ``hello'' in the shell. + +Once this works, you should think of implementing disk access. Look around +disk/ for examples. + +Then, very importantly, you probably need to implement the actual loader +(examples available in loader/) + +Last step to have minimally usable port is to add support to grub-install to +put GRUB in a place where firmware or platform will pick it up. + +Next steps are: filling datetime.c, setjmp.S, network (net/drivers), +video (video/), halt (lib/), reboot (lib/). + +Please add your platform to Platform limitations and Supported kernels chapter +in user documentation and mention any steps you skipped which result in reduced +features or performance. Here is the quick checklist of features. Some of them +are less important than others and skipping them is completely ok, just needs +to be mentioned in user documentation. + +Checklist: +@itemize +@item Is heap big enough? +@item Which charset is supported by console? +@item Does platform have disk driver? +@item Do you have network card support? +@item Are you able to retrieve datetime (with date)? +@item Are you able to set datetime (with date)? +@item Is serial supported? +@item Do you have direct disk support? +@item Do you have direct keyboard support? +@item Do you have USB support? +@item Do you support loading through network? +@item Do you support loading from disk? +@item Do you support chainloading? +@item Do you support network chainloading? +@item Does cpuid command supports checking all +CPU features that the user might want conditionalise on +(64-bit mode, hypervisor,...) +@item Do you support hints?

If so do ``acpi'' and ``lsacpi'' modules work? +@item Do any of platform-specific operations mentioned in the relevant section of +user manual makes sense on your platform? +@item Does your platform support PCI? If so is there an appropriate driver for +GRUB? +@item Do you support badram? +@end itemize + +@node Error Handling +@chapter Error Handling + +Error handling in GRUB 2 is based on exception handling model. As C language +doesn't directly support exceptions, exception handling behavior is emulated +in software. + +When exception is raised, function must return to calling function. If calling +function does not provide handling of the exception it must return back to its +calling function and so on, until exception is handled. If exception is not +handled before prompt is displayed, error message will be shown to user. + +Exception information is stored on @code{grub_errno} global variable. If +@code{grub_errno} variable contains value @code{GRUB_ERR_NONE}, there is no active +exception and application can continue normal processing. When @code{grub_errno} has +other value, it is required that application code either handles this error or +returns instantly to caller.

In situations like this, there is a needed to save old +error state and then call other functions that might fail. To aid in this, +there is a error stack implemented. Error state can be pushed to error stack +by calling function @code{grub_error_push ()}. When processing has been completed, +@code{grub_error_pop ()} can be used to pop error state from stack. Error stack +contains predefined amount of error stack items. Error stack is protected for +overflow and marks these situations so overflow error does not get unseen. +If there is no space available to store error message, it is simply discarded +and overflow will be marked as happened. When overflow happens, it most likely +will corrupt error stack consistency as for pushed error there is no matching +pop, but overflow message will be shown to inform user about the situation. +Overflow message will be shown at time when prompt is about to be drawn. + +Example usage of error stack. +@example +/* Save possible old error message. */ +grub_error_push (); + +/* Do your stuff here. */ +call_possibly_failing_function (); + +if (grub_errno != GRUB_ERR_NONE) + @{ + /* Inform rest of the code that there is error (grub_errno + is set).

The font should always use Unicode character codes for simple +internationalization. +@end itemize + +@subsection Why Another Font Format? + +There are many existing bitmap font formats that GRUB could use. However, +there are aspects of these formats that may make them less than suitable for +use in GRUB at this time: + +@table @samp +@item BDF +Inefficient storage; uses ASCII to describe properties and +hexadecimal numbers in ASCII for the bitmap rows. +@item PCF +Many format variations such as byte order and bitmap padding (rows +padded to byte, word, etc.) would result in more complex code to +handle the font format. +@end table + +@node File Structure +@section File Structure + +A file @strong{section} consists of a 4-byte name, a 32-bit big-endian length (not +including the name or length), and then @var{length} more section-type-specific +bytes. + +The standard file extension for PFF2 font files is @file{.pf2}. + + +@subsection Section Types + +@table @samp +@item FILE +@strong{File type ID} (ASCII string).

This is the full font name including family, +weight, style, and point size. For instance, "Helvetica Bold Italic 14". + +@item FAMI +@strong{Font family name} (ASCII string). For instance, "Helvetica". This should +be included so that intelligent font substitution can take place. + +@item WEIG +@strong{Font weight} (ASCII string).

When reading this font file, the rest +of the file can be ignored when scanning the sections. The length should +be set to -1 (0xFFFFFFFF). + +Supported data structures: + +Character definition +Each character definition consists of: + +@itemize +@item @strong{Width.} +Width of the bitmap in pixels.

It +functions as an alternative to the menu interface provided by the @samp{normal} +module, which uses the grub terminal interface to display a menu on a +character-oriented terminal. + +The graphical menu uses the GRUB video API, which is currently for the VESA +BIOS extensions (VBE) 2.0+. This is supported on the i386-pc platform. +However, the graphical menu itself does not depend on using VBE, so if another +GRUB video driver were implemented, the @samp{gfxmenu} graphical menu would work +on the new video driver as well. + + +@node Startup Sequence +@section Startup Sequence + +@itemize +@item grub_enter_normal_mode [normal/main.c] +@item grub_normal_execute [normal/main.c] +@item read_config_file [normal/main.c] +@item (When @file{gfxmenu.mod} is loaded with @command{insmod}, it will call @code{grub_menu_viewer_register()} to register itself.) +@item GRUB_MOD_INIT (gfxmenu) [gfxmenu/gfxmenu.c] +@item grub_menu_viewer_register [kern/menu_viewer.c] +@item grub_menu_viewer_show_menu [kern/menu_viewer.c] +@item get_current_menu_viewer() [kern/menu_viewer.c] +@item show_menu() [gfxmenu/gfxmenu.c] +@item grub_gfxmenu_model_new [gfxmenu/model.c] +@item grub_gfxmenu_view_new [gfxmenu/view.c] +@item set_graphics_mode [gfxmenu/view.c] +@item grub_gfxmenu_view_load_theme [gfxmenu/theme_loader.c] +@end itemize + + +@node GUI Components +@section GUI Components + +The graphical menu implements a GUI component system that supports a +container-based layout system. Components can be added to containers, and +containers (which are a type of component) can then be added to other +containers, to form a tree of components. Currently, the root component of +this tree is a @samp{canvas} component, which allows manual layout of its child +components. + +Components (non-container): + +@itemize +@item label +@item image +@item progress_bar +@item circular_progress +@item list (currently hard coded to be a boot menu list) +@end itemize + +Containers: + +@itemize +@item canvas +@item hbox +@item vbox +@end itemize + +The GUI component instances are created by the theme loader in +@file{gfxmenu/theme_loader.c} when a theme is loaded. Theme files specify +statements such as @samp{+vbox@{ +label @{ text="Hello" @} +label@{ text="World" @} @}} +to add components to the component tree root. By nesting the component +creation statements in the theme file, the instantiated components are nested +the same way. + +When a component is added to a container, that new child is considered @strong{owned} +by the container. Great care should be taken if the caller retains a +reference to the child component, since it will be destroyed if its parent +container is destroyed. A better choice instead of storing a pointer to the +child component is to use the component ID to find the desired component. +Component IDs do not have to be unique (it is often useful to have multiple +components with an ID of "__timeout__", for instance). + +In order to access and use components in the component tree, there are two +functions (defined in @file{gfxmenu/gui_util.c}) that are particularly useful: + +@itemize + +@item @code{grub_gui_find_by_id (root, id, callback, userdata)}: + +This function ecursively traverses the component tree rooted at @var{root}, and +for every component that has an ID equal to @var{id}, calls the function pointed +to by @var{callback} with the matching component and the void pointer @var{userdata} +as arguments. The callback function can do whatever is desired to use the +component passed in. + +@item @code{grub_gui_iterate_recursively (root, callback, userdata)}: + +This function calls the function pointed to by @var{callback} for every +component that is a descendant of @var{root} in the component tree. When the +callback function is called, the component and the void pointer @var{userdata} +as arguments. The callback function can do whatever is desired to use the +component passed in. +@end itemize + +@node Command Line Window +@section Command Line Window + +The terminal window used to provide command line access within the graphical +menu is managed by @file{gfxmenu/view.c}. The @samp{gfxterm} terminal is used, and +it has been modified to allow rendering to an offscreen render target to allow +it to be composed into the double buffering system that the graphical menu +view uses. This is bad for performance, however, so it would probably be a +good idea to make it possible to temporarily disable double buffering as long +as the terminal window is visible. There are still unresolved problems that +occur when commands are executed from the terminal window that change the +graphics mode. It's possible that making @code{grub_video_restore()} return to +the graphics mode that was in use before @code{grub_video_setup()} was called +might fix some of the problems. + + +@node Verifiers framework +@chapter Verifiers framework + +To register your own verifier call @samp{grub_verifier_register} with a structure +pointing to your functions. + +The interface is inspired by the hash interface with @samp{init}/@samp{write}/@samp{fini}. + +There are essentially 2 ways of using it, hashing and whole-file verification. + +With the hashing approach: +During @samp{init} you decide whether you want to check the given file and init context. +In @samp{write} you update your hashing state. +In @samp{fini} you check that the hash matches the expected value/passes some check/... + +With whole-file verification: +During @samp{init} you decide whether you want to check the given file and init context. +In @samp{write} you verify the file and return an error if it fails. +You don't have @samp{fini}. + +Additional @samp{verify_string} receives various strings like kernel parameters +to verify. Returning no error means successful verification and an error stops +the current action. + +Detailed description of the API: + +Every time a file is opened your @samp{init} function is called with file descriptor +and file type. Your function can have the following outcomes: + +@itemize + +@item returning no error and setting @samp{*flags} to @samp{GRUB_VERIFY_FLAGS_DEFER_AUTH}. +In this case verification is deferred to other active verifiers. Verification +fails if nobody cares or selected verifier fails. + +@item returning no error and setting @samp{*flags} to @samp{GRUB_VERIFY_FLAGS_SKIP_VERIFICATION}. +In this case your verifier will not be called anymore and it is assumed to have +skipped verification. + +@item returning no error and not setting @samp{*flags} to @samp{GRUB_VERIFY_FLAGS_SKIP_VERIFICATION} +In this case verification is done as described in the following section. + +@item returning an error. Then opening of the file will fail due to failed verification. + +@end itemize + +In the third case your @samp{write} will be called with chunks of the file. If +you need the whole file in a single chunk then during @samp{init} set the bit +@samp{GRUB_VERIFY_FLAGS_SINGLE_CHUNK} in @samp{*flags}. During @samp{init} you +may set @samp{*context} if you need additional context. At every iteration you +may return an error and the file will be considered as having failed the +verification. If you return no error then verification continues. + +Optionally at the end of the file @samp{fini}, if it exists, is called with just +the context. If you return no error during any of @samp{init}, @samp{write} and +@samp{fini} then the file is considered as having succeded verification. + +@node Lockdown framework +@chapter Lockdown framework + +The GRUB can be locked down, which is a restricted mode where some operations +are not allowed. For instance, some commands cannot be used when the GRUB is +locked down. + +The function +@code{grub_lockdown()} is used to lockdown GRUB and the function +@code{grub_is_lockdown()} function can be used to check whether lockdown is +enabled or not. When enabled, the function returns @samp{GRUB_LOCKDOWN_ENABLED} +and @samp{GRUB_LOCKDOWN_DISABLED} when is not enabled. + +The following functions can be used to register the commands that can only be +used when lockdown is disabled: + +@itemize + +@item @code{grub_cmd_lockdown()} registers command which should not run when the +GRUB is in lockdown mode. + +@item @code{grub_cmd_lockdown()} registers extended command which should not run +when the GRUB is in lockdown mode. + +@end itemize + +@node Copying This Manual +@appendix Copying This Manual + +@menu +* GNU Free Documentation License:: License for copying this manual. +@end menu + +@include fdl.texi + + +@node Index +@unnumbered Index + +@c Currently, we use only the Concept Index. +@printindex cp + +@bye diff --git a/docs/grub.cfg b/docs/grub.cfg new file mode 100644 index 0000000..dc184d7 --- /dev/null +++ b/docs/grub.cfg @@ -0,0 +1,76 @@ +# +# Sample GRUB configuration file +# + +# Boot automatically after 30 secs. +set timeout=30 + +# By default, boot the GNU/Linux +set default=gnulinux + +# Fallback to GNU/Hurd. +set fallback=gnuhurd + +# For booting GNU/Linux +menuentry "GNU/Linux" --id gnulinux { + set root=(hd0,msdos1) + linux /vmlinuz root=/dev/sda1 + initrd /initrd.img +} + +# For booting GNU/Hurd +menuentry "GNU (aka GNU/Hurd)" --id gnuhurd { + set root=(hd0,msdos1) + multiboot /boot/gnumach.gz root=device:hd0s1 + module /hurd/ext2fs.static ext2fs --readonly \ + --multiboot-command-line='${kernel-command-line}' \ + --host-priv-port='${host-port}' \ + --device-master-port='${device-port}' \ + --exec-server-task='${exec-task}' -T typed '${root}' \ + '$(task-create)' '$(task-resume)' + module /lib/ld.so.1 exec /hurd/exec '$(exec-task=task-create)' +} + +# For booting FreeBSD +menuentry "FreeBSD (or GNU/kFreeBSD), direct boot" { + set root=(hd0,msdos1,bsd1) + kfreebsd /boot/kernel/kernel + kfreebsd_loadenv /boot/device.hints + kfreebsd_module /boot/splash.bmp type=splash_image_data + set kFreeBSD.vfs.root.mountfrom=ufs:ad0s1a +} + +menuentry "FreeBSD (or GNU/kFreeBSD), via /boot/loader" { + set root=(hd0,msdos1,bsd1) + kfreebsd /boot/loader +} + +# For booting NetBSD +menuentry "NetBSD" { + set root=(hd0,netbsd1) + knetbsd /netbsd +} + +# For booting OpenBSD +menuentry "OpenBSD" { + set root=(hd0,openbsd1) + kopenbsd /bsd +} + +# For booting Microsoft Windows +menuentry "Microsoft Windows" { + set root=(hd0,msdos1) + chainloader +1 +} + +# For booting Memtest86+ +menuentry "Memtest86+" { + set root=(hd0,1) + linux16 /memtest86+.bin +} + +# Change the colors. +menuentry "Change the colors" { + set menu_color_normal=light-green/brown + set menu_color_highlight=red/blue +} diff --git a/docs/grub.info b/docs/grub.info new file mode 100644 index 0000000..f376e0b --- /dev/null +++ b/docs/grub.info @@ -0,0 +1,279 @@ +This is grub.info, produced by makeinfo version 6.3 from grub.texi. + +This manual is for GNU GRUB (version 2.06, 10 May 2021). + + Copyright (C) +1999,2000,2001,2002,2004,2006,2008,2009,2010,2011,2012,2013 Free +Software Foundation, Inc. + + Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this + document under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, + Version 1.2 or any later version published by the Free Software + Foundation; with no Invariant Sections. +INFO-DIR-SECTION Kernel +START-INFO-DIR-ENTRY +* GRUB: (grub).

It is responsible for loading and transferring control +to an operating system "kernel" software (such as Linux or GNU Mach). +The kernel, in turn, initializes the rest of the operating system (e.g. +a GNU system). + + 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(1) (*note Overview-Footnote-1::). 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. Thus you can load the +kernel just by specifying its file name and the drive and partition +where the kernel resides. + + When booting with GRUB, you can use either a command-line interface +(*note Command-line interface::), or a menu interface (*note Menu +interface::). Using the command-line interface, you type the drive +specification and file name of the kernel manually. In the menu +interface, you just select an OS using the arrow keys. The menu is +based on a configuration file which you prepare beforehand (*note +Configuration::). While in the menu, you can switch to the command-line +mode, and vice-versa. You can even edit menu entries before using them. + + In the following chapters, you will learn how to specify a drive, a +partition, and a file name (*note Naming convention::) to GRUB, how to +install GRUB on your drive (*note Installation::), and how to boot your +OSes (*note Booting::), step by step. + + +File: grub.info, Node: Overview-Footnotes, Up: Overview + + (1) "chain-load" is the mechanism for loading unsupported operating +systems by loading another boot loader. It is typically used for +loading DOS or Windows. + + +File: grub.info, Node: History, Next: Changes from GRUB Legacy, Prev: Overview, Up: Introduction + +1.2 History of GRUB +=================== + +GRUB originated in 1995 when Erich Boleyn was trying to boot the GNU +Hurd with the University of Utah's Mach 4 microkernel (now known as GNU +Mach). Erich and Brian Ford designed the Multiboot Specification (*note +Multiboot Specification: (multiboot)Top.), because they were determined +not to add to the large number of mutually-incompatible PC boot methods. + + Erich then began modifying the FreeBSD boot loader so that it would +understand Multiboot. He soon realized that it would be a lot easier to +write his own boot loader from scratch than to keep working on the +FreeBSD boot loader, and so GRUB was born. + + Erich added many features to GRUB, but other priorities prevented him +from keeping up with the demands of its quickly-expanding user base. In +1999, Gordon Matzigkeit and Yoshinori K. Okuji adopted GRUB as an +official GNU package, and opened its development by making the latest +sources available via anonymous CVS. *Note Obtaining and Building +GRUB::, for more information. + + Over the next few years, GRUB was extended to meet many needs, but it +quickly became clear that its design was not keeping up with the +extensions being made to it, and we reached the point where it was very +difficult to make any further changes without breaking existing +features. Around 2002, Yoshinori K. Okuji started work on PUPA +(Preliminary Universal Programming Architecture for GNU GRUB), aiming to +rewrite the core of GRUB to make it cleaner, safer, more robust, and +more powerful. PUPA was eventually renamed to GRUB 2, and the original +version of GRUB was renamed to GRUB Legacy. Small amounts of +maintenance continued to be done on GRUB Legacy, but the last release +(0.97) was made in 2005 and at the time of writing it seems unlikely +that there will be another. + + By around 2007, GNU/Linux distributions started to use GRUB 2 to +limited extents, and by the end of 2009 multiple major distributions +were installing it by default. + + +File: grub.info, Node: Changes from GRUB Legacy, Next: Features, Prev: History, Up: Introduction + +1.3 Differences from previous versions +====================================== + +GRUB 2 is a rewrite of GRUB (*note History::), although it shares many +characteristics with the previous version, now known as GRUB Legacy. +Users of GRUB Legacy may need some guidance to find their way around +this new version. + + * The configuration file has a new name ('grub.cfg' rather than + 'menu.lst' or 'grub.conf'), new syntax (*note Configuration::) and + many new commands (*note Commands::). Configuration cannot be + copied over directly, although most GRUB Legacy users should not + find the syntax too surprising. + + * 'grub.cfg' is typically automatically generated by 'grub-mkconfig' + (*note Simple configuration::). This makes it easier to handle + versioned kernel upgrades. + + * Partition numbers in GRUB device names now start at 1, not 0 (*note + Naming convention::). + + * The configuration file is now written in something closer to a full + scripting language: variables, conditionals, and loops are + available. + + * A small amount of persistent storage is available across reboots, + using the 'save_env' and 'load_env' commands in GRUB and the + 'grub-editenv' utility. This is not available in all + configurations (*note Environment block::). + + * GRUB 2 has more reliable ways to find its own files and those of + target kernels on multiple-disk systems, and has commands (*note + search::) to find devices using file system labels or Universally + Unique Identifiers (UUIDs). + + * GRUB 2 is available for several other types of system in addition + to the PC BIOS systems supported by GRUB Legacy: PC EFI, PC + coreboot, PowerPC, SPARC, and MIPS Lemote Yeeloong are all + supported. + + * Many more file systems are supported, including but not limited to + ext4, HFS+, and NTFS. + + * GRUB 2 can read files directly from LVM and RAID devices. + + * A graphical terminal and a graphical menu system are available. + + * GRUB 2's interface can be translated, including menu entry names. + + * The image files (*note Images::) that make up GRUB have been + reorganised; Stage 1, Stage 1.5, and Stage 2 are no more. + + * GRUB 2 puts many facilities in dynamically loaded modules, allowing + the core image to be smaller, and allowing the core image to be + built in more flexible ways. + + +File: grub.info, Node: Features, Next: Role of a boot loader, Prev: Changes from GRUB Legacy, Up: Introduction + +1.4 GRUB features +================= + +The primary requirement for GRUB is that it be compliant with the +"Multiboot Specification", which is described in *note Multiboot +Specification: (multiboot)Top. + + The other goals, listed in approximate order of importance, are: + + * Basic functions must be straightforward for end-users. + + * Rich functionality to support kernel experts and designers. + + * Backward compatibility for booting FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, and + Linux. Proprietary kernels (such as DOS, Windows NT, and OS/2) are + supported via a chain-loading function. + + Except for specific compatibility modes (chain-loading and the Linux +"piggyback" format), all kernels will be started in much the same state +as in the Multiboot Specification. Only kernels loaded at 1 megabyte or +above are presently supported. Any attempt to load below that boundary +will simply result in immediate failure and an error message reporting +the problem. + + In addition to the requirements above, GRUB has the following +features (note that the Multiboot Specification doesn't require all the +features that GRUB supports): + +Recognize multiple executable formats + Support many of the "a.out" variants plus "ELF". Symbol tables are + also loaded. + +Support non-Multiboot kernels + Support many of the various free 32-bit kernels that lack Multiboot + compliance (primarily FreeBSD, NetBSD(1) (*note + Features-Footnote-1::), OpenBSD, and Linux). Chain-loading of + other boot loaders is also supported. + +Load multiples modules + Fully support the Multiboot feature of loading multiple modules. + +Load a configuration file + Support a human-readable text configuration file with preset boot + commands. You can also load another configuration file dynamically + and embed a preset configuration file in a GRUB image file. The + list of commands (*note Commands::) are a superset of those + supported on the command-line. An example configuration file is + provided in *note Configuration::. + +Provide a menu interface + A menu interface listing preset boot commands, with a programmable + timeout, is available. There is no fixed limit on the number of + boot entries, and the current implementation has space for several + hundred. + +Have a flexible command-line interface + A fairly flexible command-line interface, accessible from the menu, + is available to edit any preset commands, or write a new boot + command set from scratch. If no configuration file is present, + GRUB drops to the command-line. + + The list of commands (*note Commands::) are a subset of those + supported for configuration files. Editing commands closely + resembles the Bash command-line (*note Bash: (features)Command Line + Editing.), with <TAB>-completion of commands, devices, partitions, + and files in a directory depending on context. + +Support multiple filesystem types + Support multiple filesystem types transparently, plus a useful + explicit blocklist notation. The currently supported filesystem + types are "Amiga Fast FileSystem (AFFS)", "AtheOS fs", "BeFS", + "BtrFS" (including raid0, raid1, raid10, gzip and lzo), "cpio" + (little- and big-endian bin, odc and newc variants), "Linux + ext2/ext3/ext4", "DOS FAT12/FAT16/FAT32", "exFAT", "F2FS", "HFS", + "HFS+", "ISO9660" (including Joliet, Rock-ridge and multi-chunk + files), "JFS", "Minix fs" (versions 1, 2 and 3), "nilfs2", "NTFS" + (including compression), "ReiserFS", "ROMFS", "Amiga Smart + FileSystem (SFS)", "Squash4", "tar", "UDF", "BSD UFS/UFS2", "XFS", + and "ZFS" (including lzjb, gzip, zle, mirror, stripe, raidz1/2/3 + and encryption in AES-CCM and AES-GCM). *Note Filesystem::, for + more information. + +Support automatic decompression + Can decompress files which were compressed by 'gzip' or 'xz'(2) + (*note Features-Footnote-2::). This function is both automatic and + transparent to the user (i.e. all functions operate upon the + uncompressed contents of the specified files). This greatly + reduces a file size and loading time, a particularly great benefit + for floppies.(3) (*note Features-Footnote-3::) + + It is conceivable that some kernel modules should be loaded in a + compressed state, so a different module-loading command can be + specified to avoid uncompressing the modules. + +Access data on any installed device + Support reading data from any or all floppies or hard disk(s) + recognized by the BIOS, independent of the setting of the root + device. + +Be independent of drive geometry translations + Unlike many other boot loaders, GRUB makes the particular drive + translation irrelevant. A drive installed and running with one + translation may be converted to another translation without any + adverse effects or changes in GRUB's configuration. + +Detect all installed RAM + GRUB can generally find all the installed RAM on a PC-compatible + machine. It uses an advanced BIOS query technique for finding all + memory regions. As described on the Multiboot Specification (*note + Multiboot Specification: (multiboot)Top.), not all kernels make use + of this information, but GRUB provides it for those who do. + +Support Logical Block Address mode + In traditional disk calls (called "CHS mode"), there is a geometry + translation problem, that is, the BIOS cannot access over 1024 + cylinders, so the accessible space is limited to at least 508 MB + and to at most 8GB. GRUB can't universally solve this problem, as + there is no standard interface used in all machines. However, + several newer machines have the new interface, Logical Block + Address ("LBA") mode. GRUB automatically detects if LBA mode is + available and uses it if available. In LBA mode, GRUB can access + the entire disk. + +Support network booting + GRUB is basically a disk-based boot loader but also has network + support. You can load OS images from a network by using the "TFTP" + protocol. + +Support remote terminals + To support computers with no console, GRUB provides remote terminal + support, so that you can control GRUB from a remote host. Only + serial terminal support is implemented at the moment. + + +File: grub.info, Node: Features-Footnotes, Up: Features + + (1) The NetBSD/i386 kernel is Multiboot-compliant, but lacks support +for Multiboot modules. + + (2) Only CRC32 data integrity check is supported (xz default is CRC64 +so one should use -check=crc32 option). LZMA BCJ filters are supported. + + (3) There are a few pathological cases where loading a very badly +organized ELF kernel might take longer, but in practice this never +happen. + + +File: grub.info, Node: Role of a boot loader, Prev: Features, Up: Introduction + +1.5 The role of a boot loader +============================= + +The following is a quotation from Gordon Matzigkeit, a GRUB fanatic: + + Some people like to acknowledge both the operating system and + kernel when they talk about their computers, so they might say they + use "GNU/Linux" or "GNU/Hurd". Other people seem to think that the + kernel is the most important part of the system, so they like to + call their GNU operating systems "Linux systems." + + I, personally, believe that this is a grave injustice, because the + _boot loader_ is the most important software of all. I used to + refer to the above systems as either "LILO"(1) (*note Role of a + boot loader-Footnote-1::) or "GRUB" systems. + + Unfortunately, nobody ever understood what I was talking about; now + I just use the word "GNU" as a pseudonym for GRUB. + + So, if you ever hear people talking about their alleged "GNU" + systems, remember that they are actually paying homage to the best + boot loader around... GRUB! + + We, the GRUB maintainers, do not (usually) encourage Gordon's level +of fanaticism, but it helps to remember that boot loaders deserve +recognition. We hope that you enjoy using GNU GRUB as much as we did +writing it. + + +File: grub.info, Node: Role of a boot loader-Footnotes, Up: Role of a boot loader + + (1) The LInux LOader, a boot loader that everybody uses, but nobody +likes. + + +File: grub.info, Node: Naming convention, Next: OS-specific notes about grub tools, Prev: Introduction, Up: Top + +2 Naming convention +******************* + +The device syntax used in GRUB is a wee bit different from what you may +have seen before in your operating system(s), and you need to know it so +that you can specify a drive/partition. + + Look at the following examples and explanations: + + (fd0) + + First of all, GRUB requires that the device name be enclosed with '(' +and ')'. The 'fd' part means that it is a floppy disk. The number '0' +is the drive number, which is counted from _zero_. This expression +means that GRUB will use the whole floppy disk. + + (hd0,msdos2) + + Here, 'hd' means it is a hard disk drive. The first integer '0' +indicates the drive number, that is, the first hard disk, the string +'msdos' indicates the partition scheme, while the second integer, '2', +indicates the partition number (or the PC slice number in the BSD +terminology). The partition numbers are counted from _one_, not from +zero (as was the case in previous versions of GRUB). This expression +means the second partition of the first hard disk drive. In this case, +GRUB uses one partition of the disk, instead of the whole disk. + + (hd0,msdos5) + + This specifies the first "extended partition" of the first hard disk +drive. Note that the partition numbers for extended partitions are +counted from '5', regardless of the actual number of primary partitions +on your hard disk. + + (hd1,msdos1,bsd1) + + This means the BSD 'a' partition on first PC slice number of the +second hard disk. + + Of course, to actually access the disks or partitions with GRUB, you +need to use the device specification in a command, like 'set root=(fd0)' +or 'parttool (hd0,msdos3) hidden-'. To help you find out which number +specifies a partition you want, the GRUB command-line (*note +Command-line interface::) options have argument completion. This means +that, for example, you only need to type + + set root=( + + followed by a <TAB>, and GRUB will display the list of drives, +partitions, or file names. So it should be quite easy to determine the +name of your target partition, even with minimal knowledge of the +syntax. + + Note that GRUB does _not_ distinguish IDE from SCSI - it simply +counts the drive numbers from zero, regardless of their type. Normally, +any IDE drive number is less than any SCSI drive number, although that +is not true if you change the boot sequence by swapping IDE and SCSI +drives in your BIOS. + + Now the question is, how to specify a file? Again, consider an +example: + + (hd0,msdos1)/vmlinuz + + This specifies the file named 'vmlinuz', found on the first partition +of the first hard disk drive. Note that the argument completion works +with file names, too. + + That was easy, admit it. Now read the next chapter, to find out how +to actually install GRUB on your drive. + + +File: grub.info, Node: OS-specific notes about grub tools, Next: Installation, Prev: Naming convention, Up: Top + +3 OS-specific notes about grub tools +************************************ + +On OS which have device nodes similar to Unix-like OS GRUB tools use the +OS name.

You can do this either from the +source tarball, or as a package for your OS. + + After you have done that, you need to install the boot loader on a +drive (floppy or hard disk) by using the utility 'grub-install' (*note +Invoking grub-install::) on a UNIX-like OS. + + GRUB comes with boot images, which are normally put in the directory +'/usr/lib/grub/<cpu>-<platform>' (for BIOS-based machines +'/usr/lib/grub/i386-pc'). Hereafter, the directory where GRUB images +are initially placed (normally '/usr/lib/grub/<cpu>-<platform>') will be +called the "image directory", and the directory where the boot loader +needs to find them (usually '/boot') will be called the "boot +directory". + +* Menu: + +* Installing GRUB using grub-install:: +* Making a GRUB bootable CD-ROM:: +* Device map:: +* BIOS installation:: + + +File: grub.info, Node: Installing GRUB using grub-install, Next: Making a GRUB bootable CD-ROM, Up: Installation + +4.1 Installing GRUB using grub-install +====================================== + +For information on where GRUB should be installed on PC BIOS platforms, +*note BIOS installation::. + + In order to install GRUB under a UNIX-like OS (such as GNU), invoke +the program 'grub-install' (*note Invoking grub-install::) as the +superuser ("root"). + + The usage is basically very simple. You only need to specify one +argument to the program, namely, where to install the boot loader. The +argument has to be either a device file (like '/dev/hda'). For example, +under Linux the following will install GRUB into the MBR of the first +IDE disk: + + # grub-install /dev/sda + + Likewise, under GNU/Hurd, this has the same effect: + + # grub-install /dev/hd0 + + But all the above examples assume that GRUB should put images under +the '/boot' directory. If you want GRUB to put images under a directory +other than '/boot', you need to specify the option '--boot-directory'. +The typical usage is that you create a GRUB boot floppy with a +filesystem. Here is an example: + + # mke2fs /dev/fd0 + # mount -t ext2 /dev/fd0 /mnt + # mkdir /mnt/boot + # grub-install --boot-directory=/mnt/boot /dev/fd0 + # umount /mnt + + Some BIOSes have a bug of exposing the first partition of a USB drive +as a floppy instead of exposing the USB drive as a hard disk (they call +it "USB-FDD" boot). In such cases, you need to install like this: + + # losetup /dev/loop0 /dev/sdb1 + # mount /dev/loop0 /mnt/usb + # grub-install --boot-directory=/mnt/usb/bugbios --force --allow-floppy /dev/loop0 + + This install doesn't conflict with standard install as long as they +are in separate directories. + + On EFI systems for fixed disk install you have to mount EFI System +Partition. If you mount it at '/boot/efi' then you don't need any +special arguments: + + # grub-install + + Otherwise you need to specify where your EFI System partition is +mounted: + + # grub-install --efi-directory=/mnt/efi + + For removable installs you have to use '--removable' and specify both +'--boot-directory' and '--efi-directory': + + # grub-install --efi-directory=/mnt/usb --boot-directory=/mnt/usb/boot --removable + + +File: grub.info, Node: Making a GRUB bootable CD-ROM, Next: Device map, Prev: Installing GRUB using grub-install, Up: Installation + +4.2 Making a GRUB bootable CD-ROM +================================= + +GRUB supports the "no emulation mode" in the El Torito specification(1) +(*note Making a GRUB bootable CD-ROM-Footnote-1::). This means that you +can use the whole CD-ROM from GRUB and you don't have to make a floppy +or hard disk image file, which can cause compatibility problems. + + For booting from a CD-ROM, GRUB uses a special image called +'cdboot.img', which is concatenated with 'core.img'. The 'core.img' +used for this should be built with at least the 'iso9660' and 'biosdisk' +modules. Your bootable CD-ROM will usually also need to include a +configuration file 'grub.cfg' and some other GRUB modules. + + To make a simple generic GRUB rescue CD, you can use the +'grub-mkrescue' program (*note Invoking grub-mkrescue::): + + $ grub-mkrescue -o grub.iso + + You will often need to include other files in your image. To do +this, first make a top directory for the bootable image, say, 'iso': + + $ mkdir iso + + Make a directory for GRUB: + + $ mkdir -p iso/boot/grub + + If desired, make the config file 'grub.cfg' under 'iso/boot/grub' +(*note Configuration::), and copy any files and directories for the disc +to the directory 'iso/'. + + Finally, make the image: + + $ grub-mkrescue -o grub.iso iso + + This produces a file named 'grub.iso', which then can be burned into +a CD (or a DVD), or written to a USB mass storage device. + + The root device will be set up appropriately on entering your +'grub.cfg' configuration file, so you can refer to file names on the CD +without needing to use an explicit device name. This makes it easier to +produce rescue images that will work on both optical drives and USB mass +storage devices. + + +File: grub.info, Node: Making a GRUB bootable CD-ROM-Footnotes, Up: Making a GRUB bootable CD-ROM + + (1) El Torito is a specification for bootable CD using BIOS +functions. + + +File: grub.info, Node: Device map, Next: BIOS installation, Prev: Making a GRUB bootable CD-ROM, Up: Installation + +4.3 The map between BIOS drives and OS devices +============================================== + +If the device map file exists, the GRUB utilities ('grub-probe', etc.) +read it to map BIOS drives to OS devices. This file consists of lines +like this: + + (DEVICE) FILE + + DEVICE is a drive specified in the GRUB syntax (*note Device +syntax::), and FILE is an OS file, which is normally a device file. + + Historically, the device map file was used because GRUB device names +had to be used in the configuration file, and they were derived from +BIOS drive numbers. The map between BIOS drives and OS devices cannot +always be guessed correctly: for example, GRUB will get the order wrong +if you exchange the boot sequence between IDE and SCSI in your BIOS. + + Unfortunately, even OS device names are not always stable. Modern +versions of the Linux kernel may probe drives in a different order from +boot to boot, and the prefix ('/dev/hd*' versus '/dev/sd*') may change +depending on the driver subsystem in use. As a result, the device map +file required frequent editing on some systems. + + GRUB avoids this problem nowadays by using UUIDs or file system +labels when generating 'grub.cfg', and we advise that you do the same +for any custom menu entries you write. If the device map file does not +exist, then the GRUB utilities will assume a temporary device map on the +fly. This is often good enough, particularly in the common case of +single-disk systems. + + However, the device map file is not entirely obsolete yet, and it is +used for overriding when current environment is different from the one +on boot. Most common case is if you use a partition or logical volume +as a disk for virtual machine. You can put any comments in the file if +needed, as the GRUB utilities assume that a line is just a comment if +the first character is '#'. + + +File: grub.info, Node: BIOS installation, Prev: Device map, Up: Installation + +4.4 BIOS installation +===================== + +MBR +=== + +The partition table format traditionally used on PC BIOS platforms is +called the Master Boot Record (MBR) format; this is the format that +allows up to four primary partitions and additional logical partitions. +With this partition table format, there are two ways to install GRUB: it +can be embedded in the area between the MBR and the first partition +(called by various names, such as the "boot track", "MBR gap", or +"embedding area", and which is usually at least 1000 KiB), or the core +image can be installed in a file system and a list of the blocks that +make it up can be stored in the first sector of that partition. + + Modern tools usually leave MBR gap of at least 1023 KiB. This amount +is sufficient to cover most configurations. Hence this value is +recommended by the GRUB team. + + Historically many tools left only 31 KiB of space. This is not +enough to parse reliably difficult structures like Btrfs, ZFS, RAID or +LVM, or to use difficult disk access methods like ahci. Hence GRUB will +warn if attempted to install into small MBR gap except in a small number +of configurations that were grandfathered. The grandfathered config +must: + + * use biosdisk as disk access module for '/boot' * not use any +additional partition maps to access '/boot' * '/boot' must be on one of +following filesystems: * AFFS, AFS, BFS, cpio, newc, odc, ext2/3/4, FAT, +exFAT, F2FS, HFS, uncompressed HFS+, ISO9660, JFS, Minix, Minix2, +Minix3, NILFS2, NTFS, ReiserFS, ROMFS, SFS, tar, UDF, UFS1, UFS2, XFS + + MBR gap has few technical problems. There is no way to reserve space +in the embedding area with complete safety, and some proprietary +software is known to use it to make it difficult for users to work +around licensing restrictions. GRUB works it around by detecting +sectors by other software and avoiding them and protecting its own +sectors using Reed-Solomon encoding. + + GRUB team recommends having MBR gap of at least 1000 KiB + + Should it be not possible GRUB has support for a fallback solution +which is heavily recommended against. Installing to a filesystem means +that GRUB is vulnerable to its blocks being moved around by filesystem +features such as tail packing, or even by aggressive fsck +implementations, so this approach is quite fragile; and this approach +can only be used if the '/boot' filesystem is on the same disk that the +BIOS boots from, so that GRUB does not have to rely on guessing BIOS +drive numbers. + + The GRUB development team generally recommends embedding GRUB before +the first partition, unless you have special requirements. You must +ensure that the first partition starts at least 1000 KiB (2000 sectors) +from the start of the disk; on modern disks, it is often a performance +advantage to align partitions on larger boundaries anyway, so the first +partition might start 1 MiB from the start of the disk. + +GPT +=== + +Some newer systems use the GUID Partition Table (GPT) format. This was +specified as part of the Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI), but it can +also be used on BIOS platforms if system software supports it; for +example, GRUB and GNU/Linux can be used in this configuration. With +this format, it is possible to reserve a whole partition for GRUB, +called the BIOS Boot Partition. GRUB can then be embedded into that +partition without the risk of being overwritten by other software and +without being contained in a filesystem which might move its blocks +around. + + When creating a BIOS Boot Partition on a GPT system, you should make +sure that it is at least 31 KiB in size. (GPT-formatted disks are not +usually particularly small, so we recommend that you make it larger than +the bare minimum, such as 1 MiB, to allow plenty of room for growth.) +You must also make sure that it has the proper partition type. Using +GNU Parted, you can set this using a command such as the following: + + # parted /dev/DISK set PARTITION-NUMBER bios_grub on + + If you are using gdisk, set the partition type to '0xEF02'. With +partitioning programs that require setting the GUID directly, it should +be '21686148-6449-6e6f-744e656564454649'. + + *Caution:* Be very careful which partition you select! When GRUB +finds a BIOS Boot Partition during installation, it will automatically +overwrite part of it. Make sure that the partition does not contain any +other data. + + +File: grub.info, Node: Booting, Next: Configuration, Prev: Installation, Up: Top + +5 Booting +********* + +GRUB can load Multiboot-compliant kernels in a consistent way, but for +some free operating systems you need to use some OS-specific magic. + +* Menu: + +* General boot methods:: How to boot OSes with GRUB generally +* Loopback booting:: Notes on booting from loopbacks +* LVM cache booting:: Notes on booting from LVM cache logical volume +* OS-specific notes:: Notes on some operating systems + + +File: grub.info, Node: General boot methods, Next: Loopback booting, Up: Booting + +5.1 How to boot operating systems +================================= + +GRUB has two distinct boot methods. One of the two is to load an +operating system directly, and the other is to chain-load another boot +loader which then will load an operating system actually. Generally +speaking, the former is more desirable, because you don't need to +install or maintain other boot loaders and GRUB is flexible enough to +load an operating system from an arbitrary disk/partition. However, the +latter is sometimes required, since GRUB doesn't support all the +existing operating systems natively. + +* Menu: + +* Loading an operating system directly:: +* Chain-loading:: + + +File: grub.info, Node: Loading an operating system directly, Next: Chain-loading, Up: General boot methods + +5.1.1 How to boot an OS directly with GRUB +------------------------------------------ + +Multiboot (*note Multiboot Specification: (multiboot)Top.) is the native +format supported by GRUB. For the sake of convenience, there is also +support for Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD and OpenBSD. If you want to boot +other operating systems, you will have to chain-load them (*note +Chain-loading::). + + FIXME: this section is incomplete. + + 1. Run the command 'boot' (*note boot::). + + However, DOS and Windows have some deficiencies, so you might have to +use more complicated instructions. *Note DOS/Windows::, for more +information. + + +File: grub.info, Node: Chain-loading, Prev: Loading an operating system directly, Up: General boot methods + +5.1.2 Chain-loading an OS +------------------------- + +Operating systems that do not support Multiboot and do not have specific +support in GRUB (specific support is available for Linux, FreeBSD, +NetBSD and OpenBSD) must be chain-loaded, which involves loading another +boot loader and jumping to it in real mode. + + The 'chainloader' command (*note chainloader::) is used to set this +up. It is normally also necessary to load some GRUB modules and set the +appropriate root device. Putting this together, we get something like +this, for a Windows system on the first partition of the first hard +disk: + +menuentry "Windows" { + insmod chain + insmod ntfs + set root=(hd0,1) + chainloader +1 +} + + On systems with multiple hard disks, an additional workaround may be +required. *Note DOS/Windows::. + + Chain-loading is only supported on PC BIOS and EFI platforms. + + +File: grub.info, Node: Loopback booting, Next: LVM cache booting, Prev: General boot methods, Up: Booting + +5.2 Loopback booting +==================== + +GRUB is able to read from an image (be it one of CD or HDD) stored on +any of its accessible storages (refer to *note loopback:: command). +However the OS itself should be able to find its root. This usually +involves running a userspace program running before the real root is +discovered. This is achieved by GRUB loading a specially made small +image and passing it as ramdisk to the kernel. This is achieved by +commands 'kfreebsd_module', 'knetbsd_module_elf', 'kopenbsd_ramdisk', +'initrd' (*note initrd::), 'initrd16' (*note initrd::), +'multiboot_module', 'multiboot2_module' or 'xnu_ramdisk' depending on +the loader. Note that for knetbsd the image must be put inside +miniroot.kmod and the whole miniroot.kmod has to be loaded. In kopenbsd +payload this is disabled by default. Aditionally behaviour of initial +ramdisk depends on command line options. Several distributors provide +the image for this purpose or it's integrated in their standard ramdisk +and activated by special option. Consult your kernel and distribution +manual for more details. Other loaders like appleloader, chainloader +(BIOS, EFI, coreboot), freedos, ntldr and plan9 provide no possibility +of loading initial ramdisk and as far as author is aware the payloads in +question don't support either initial ramdisk or discovering loopback +boot in other way and as such not bootable this way. Please consider +alternative boot methods like copying all files from the image to actual +partition. Consult your OS documentation for more details + + +File: grub.info, Node: LVM cache booting, Next: OS-specific notes, Prev: Loopback booting, Up: Booting + +5.3 Booting from LVM cache logical volume +========================================= + +The LVM cache logical volume is the logical volume consisting of the +original and the cache pool logical volume. The original is usually on +a larger and slower storage device while the cache pool is on a smaller +and faster one. The performance of the original volume can be improved +by storing the frequently used data on the cache pool to utilize the +greater performance of faster device. + + GRUB boots from LVM cache logical volume merely by reading it's +original logical volume so that dirty data in cache pool volume is +disregarded. This is not a problem for "writethrough" cache mode as it +ensures that any data written will be stored both on the cache and the +origin LV. For the other cache mode "writeback", which delays writing +from the cache pool back to the origin LV to boost performance, GRUB may +fail to boot in the wake of accidental power outage due to it's +inability to assemble the cache device for reading the required dirty +data left behind. The situation will be improved after adding full +support to the LVM cache logical volume in the future. + + +File: grub.info, Node: OS-specific notes, Prev: LVM cache booting, Up: Booting + +5.4 Some caveats on OS-specific issues +====================================== + +Here, we describe some caveats on several operating systems. + +* Menu: + +* GNU/Hurd:: +* GNU/Linux:: +* NetBSD:: +* DOS/Windows:: + + +File: grub.info, Node: GNU/Hurd, Next: GNU/Linux, Up: OS-specific notes + +5.4.1 GNU/Hurd +-------------- + +Since GNU/Hurd is Multiboot-compliant, it is easy to boot it; there is +nothing special about it. But do not forget that you have to specify a +root partition to the kernel. + + 1. Set GRUB's root device to the same drive as GNU/Hurd's. The + command 'search --set=root --file /boot/gnumach.gz' or similar may + help you (*note search::). + + 2. Load the kernel and the modules, like this: + + grub> multiboot /boot/gnumach.gz root=device:hd0s1 + grub> module /hurd/ext2fs.static ext2fs --readonly \ + --multiboot-command-line='${kernel-command-line}' \ + --host-priv-port='${host-port}' \ + --device-master-port='${device-port}' \ + --exec-server-task='${exec-task}' -T typed '${root}' \ + '$(task-create)' '$(task-resume)' + grub> module /lib/ld.so.1 exec /hurd/exec '$(exec-task=task-create)' + + 3. Finally, run the command 'boot' (*note boot::). + + +File: grub.info, Node: GNU/Linux, Next: NetBSD, Prev: GNU/Hurd, Up: OS-specific notes + +5.4.2 GNU/Linux +--------------- + +It is relatively easy to boot GNU/Linux from GRUB, because it somewhat +resembles to boot a Multiboot-compliant OS. + + 1. Set GRUB's root device to the same drive as GNU/Linux's. The + command 'search --set=root --file /vmlinuz' or similar may help you + (*note search::). + + 2. Load the kernel using the command 'linux' (*note linux::): + + grub> linux /vmlinuz root=/dev/sda1 + + If you need to specify some kernel parameters, just append them to + the command. For example, to set 'acpi' to 'off', do this: + + grub> linux /vmlinuz root=/dev/sda1 acpi=off + + See the documentation in the Linux source tree for complete + information on the available options. + + With 'linux' GRUB uses 32-bit protocol. Some BIOS services like + APM or EDD aren't available with this protocol. In this case you + need to use 'linux16' + + grub> linux16 /vmlinuz root=/dev/sda1 acpi=off + + 3. If you use an initrd, execute the command 'initrd' (*note initrd::) + after 'linux': + + grub> initrd /initrd + + If you used 'linux16' you need to use 'initrd16': + + grub> initrd16 /initrd + + 4. Finally, run the command 'boot' (*note boot::). + + +File: grub.info, Node: NetBSD, Next: DOS/Windows, Prev: GNU/Linux, Up: OS-specific notes + +5.4.3 NetBSD +------------ + +Booting a NetBSD kernel from GRUB is also relatively easy: first set +GRUB's root device, then load the kernel and the modules, and finally +run 'boot'. + + 1. Set GRUB's root device to the partition holding the NetBSD root + file system. For a disk with a NetBSD disk label, this is usually + the first partition (a:). In that case, and assuming that the + partition is on the first hard disk, set GRUB's root device as + follows: + + grub> insmod part_bsd + grub> set root=(hd0,netbsd1) + + For a disk with a GUID Partition Table (GPT), and assuming that the + NetBSD root partition is the third GPT partition, do this: + + grub> insmod part_gpt + grub> set root=(hd0,gpt3) + + 2. Load the kernel using the command 'knetbsd': + + grub> knetbsd /netbsd + + Various options may be given to 'knetbsd'. These options are, for + the most part, the same as in the NetBSD boot loader. For + instance, to boot the system in single-user mode and with verbose + messages, do this: + + grub> knetbsd /netbsd -s -v + + 3. If needed, load kernel modules with the command + 'knetbsd_module_elf'. A typical example is the module for the root + file system: + + grub> knetbsd_module_elf /stand/amd64/6.0/modules/ffs/ffs.kmod + + 4. Finally, run the command 'boot' (*note boot::). + + +File: grub.info, Node: DOS/Windows, Prev: NetBSD, Up: OS-specific notes + +5.4.4 DOS/Windows +----------------- + +GRUB cannot boot DOS or Windows directly, so you must chain-load them +(*note Chain-loading::). However, their boot loaders have some critical +deficiencies, so it may not work to just chain-load them. To overcome +the problems, GRUB provides you with two helper functions. + + If you have installed DOS (or Windows) on a non-first hard disk, you +have to use the disk swapping technique, because that OS cannot boot +from any disks but the first one. The workaround used in GRUB is the +command 'drivemap' (*note drivemap::), like this: + + drivemap -s (hd0) (hd1) + + This performs a "virtual" swap between your first and second hard +drive. + + *Caution:* This is effective only if DOS (or Windows) uses BIOS to +access the swapped disks. If that OS uses a special driver for the +disks, this probably won't work. + + Another problem arises if you installed more than one set of +DOS/Windows onto one disk, because they could be confused if there are +more than one primary partitions for DOS/Windows. Certainly you should +avoid doing this, but there is a solution if you do want to do so. Use +the partition hiding/unhiding technique. + + If GRUB "hides" a DOS (or Windows) partition (*note parttool::), DOS +(or Windows) will ignore the partition. If GRUB "unhides" a DOS (or +Windows) partition, DOS (or Windows) will detect the partition. Thus, +if you have installed DOS (or Windows) on the first and the second +partition of the first hard disk, and you want to boot the copy on the +first partition, do the following: + + parttool (hd0,1) hidden- + parttool (hd0,2) hidden+ + set root=(hd0,1) + chainloader +1 + parttool ${root} boot+ + boot + + +File: grub.info, Node: Configuration, Next: Theme file format, Prev: Booting, Up: Top + +6 Writing your own configuration file +************************************* + +GRUB is configured using 'grub.cfg', usually located under '/boot/grub'. +This file is quite flexible, but most users will not need to write the +whole thing by hand. + +* Menu: + +* Simple configuration:: Recommended for most users +* Root Identifcation Heuristics:: Summary on how the root file system is identified. +* Shell-like scripting:: For power users and developers +* Multi-boot manual config:: For non-standard multi-OS scenarios +* Embedded configuration:: Embedding a configuration file into GRUB + + +File: grub.info, Node: Simple configuration, Next: Root Identifcation Heuristics, Up: Configuration + +6.1 Simple configuration handling +================================= + +The program 'grub-mkconfig' (*note Invoking grub-mkconfig::) generates +'grub.cfg' files suitable for most cases. It is suitable for use when +upgrading a distribution, and will discover available kernels and +attempt to generate menu entries for them. + + 'grub-mkconfig' does have some limitations. While adding extra +custom menu entries to the end of the list can be done by editing +'/etc/grub.d/40_custom' or creating '/boot/grub/custom.cfg', changing +the order of menu entries or changing their titles may require making +complex changes to shell scripts stored in '/etc/grub.d/'. This may be +improved in the future. In the meantime, those who feel that it would +be easier to write 'grub.cfg' directly are encouraged to do so (*note +Booting::, and *note Shell-like scripting::), and to disable any system +provided by their distribution to automatically run 'grub-mkconfig'. + + The file '/etc/default/grub' controls the operation of +'grub-mkconfig'. It is sourced by a shell script, and so must be valid +POSIX shell input; normally, it will just be a sequence of 'KEY=value' +lines, but if the value contains spaces or other special characters then +it must be quoted. For example: + + GRUB_TERMINAL_INPUT="console serial" + + Valid keys in '/etc/default/grub' are as follows: + +'GRUB_DEFAULT' + The default menu entry. This may be a number, in which case it + identifies the Nth entry in the generated menu counted from zero, + or the title of a menu entry, or the special string 'saved'. Using + the id may be useful if you want to set a menu entry as the default + even though there may be a variable number of entries before it. + + For example, if you have: + + menuentry 'Example GNU/Linux distribution' --class gnu-linux --id example-gnu-linux { + ... + } + + then you can make this the default using: + + GRUB_DEFAULT=example-gnu-linux + + Previously it was documented the way to use entry title. While + this still works it's not recommended since titles often contain + unstable device names and may be translated + + If you set this to 'saved', then the default menu entry will be + that saved by 'GRUB_SAVEDEFAULT' or 'grub-set-default'. This + relies on the environment block, which may not be available in all + situations (*note Environment block::). + + The default is '0'. + +'GRUB_SAVEDEFAULT' + If this option is set to 'true', then, when an entry is selected, + save it as a new default entry for use by future runs of GRUB.

This + option relies on the environment block, which may not be available + in all situations (*note Environment block::). + +'GRUB_TIMEOUT' + Boot the default entry this many seconds after the menu is + displayed, unless a key is pressed.

Set to + '0' to boot immediately without displaying the menu, or to '-1' to + wait indefinitely. + + If 'GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE' is set to 'countdown' or 'hidden', the + timeout is instead counted before the menu is displayed. + +'GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE' + If this option is unset or set to 'menu', then GRUB will display + the menu and then wait for the timeout set by 'GRUB_TIMEOUT' to + expire before booting the default entry. Pressing a key interrupts + the timeout. + + If this option is set to 'countdown' or 'hidden', then, before + displaying the menu, GRUB will wait for the timeout set by + 'GRUB_TIMEOUT' to expire. If <ESC> or <F4> are pressed, or <SHIFT> + is held down during that time, it will display the menu and wait + for input. If a hotkey associated with a menu entry is pressed, it + will boot the associated menu entry immediately. If the timeout + expires before either of these happens, it will boot the default + entry.

This option lists command-line arguments + to add only to the default menu entry, after those listed in + 'GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX'. + +'GRUB_CMDLINE_NETBSD' +'GRUB_CMDLINE_NETBSD_DEFAULT' + As 'GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX' and 'GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT', but for + NetBSD. + +'GRUB_CMDLINE_GNUMACH' + As 'GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX', but for GNU Mach. + +'GRUB_CMDLINE_XEN' +'GRUB_CMDLINE_XEN_DEFAULT' + The values of these options are passed to Xen hypervisor Xen menu + entries, for all respectively normal entries. + +'GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_XEN_REPLACE' +'GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_XEN_REPLACE_DEFAULT' + The values of these options replace the values of + 'GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX' and 'GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT' for Linux and + Xen menu entries. + +'GRUB_EARLY_INITRD_LINUX_CUSTOM' +'GRUB_EARLY_INITRD_LINUX_STOCK' + List of space-separated early initrd images to be loaded from + '/boot'. This is for loading things like CPU microcode, firmware, + ACPI tables, crypto keys, and so on.

This is usually more reliable, but in some cases it may + not be appropriate. To disable the use of UUIDs, set this option + to 'true'. + +'GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_PARTUUID' + If 'grub-mkconfig' cannot identify the root filesystem via its + universally-unique indentifier (UUID), 'grub-mkconfig' can use the + UUID of the partition containing the filesystem to identify the + root filesystem to the Linux kernel via a 'root=PARTUUID=...' + kernel parameter. This is not as reliable as using the filesystem + UUID, but is more reliable than using the Linux device names. When + 'GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_PARTUUID' is set to 'false', the Linux kernel + version must be 2.6.37 (3.10 for systems using the MSDOS partition + scheme) or newer. This option defaults to 'true'. To enable the + use of partition UUIDs, set this option to 'false'. + +'GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY' + If this option is set to 'true', disable the generation of recovery + mode menu entries. + +'GRUB_DISABLE_UUID' + Normally, 'grub-mkconfig' will generate menu entries that use + universally-unique identifiers (UUIDs) to identify various + filesystems to search for files. This is usually more reliable, + but in some cases it may not be appropriate. To disable this use + of UUIDs, set this option to 'true'. Setting this option to + 'true', will also set the options 'GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID' and + 'GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_PARTUUID' to 'true', unless they have been + explicilty set to 'false'. + +'GRUB_VIDEO_BACKEND' + If graphical video support is required, either because the + 'gfxterm' graphical terminal is in use or because + 'GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX' is set, then 'grub-mkconfig' will normally + load all available GRUB video drivers and use the one most + appropriate for your hardware. If you need to override this for + some reason, then you can set this option. + + After 'grub-install' has been run, the available video drivers are + listed in '/boot/grub/video.lst'. + +'GRUB_GFXMODE' + Set the resolution used on the 'gfxterm' graphical terminal.

Set this option to 'false' to enable this + feature in the 'grub-mkconfig' command. + +'GRUB_OS_PROBER_SKIP_LIST' + List of space-separated FS UUIDs of filesystems to be ignored from + os-prober output. For efi chainloaders it's <UUID>@<EFI FILE> + +'GRUB_DISABLE_SUBMENU' + Normally, 'grub-mkconfig' will generate top level menu entry for + the kernel with highest version number and put all other found + kernels or alternative menu entries for recovery mode in submenu. + For entries returned by 'os-prober' first entry will be put on top + level and all others in submenu. If this option is set to 'true', + flat menu with all entries on top level will be generated instead. + Changing this option will require changing existing values of + 'GRUB_DEFAULT', 'fallback' (*note fallback::) and 'default' (*note + default::) environment variables as well as saved default entry + using 'grub-set-default' and value used with 'grub-reboot'. + +'GRUB_ENABLE_CRYPTODISK' + If set to 'y', 'grub-mkconfig' and 'grub-install' will check for + encrypted disks and generate additional commands needed to access + them during boot. Note that in this case unattended boot is not + possible because GRUB will wait for passphrase to unlock encrypted + container. + +'GRUB_INIT_TUNE' + Play a tune on the speaker when GRUB starts.

The value of this + option is passed directly to *note play::. + +'GRUB_BADRAM' + If this option is set, GRUB will issue a *note badram:: command to + filter out specified regions of RAM. + +'GRUB_PRELOAD_MODULES' + This option may be set to a list of GRUB module names separated by + spaces. Each module will be loaded as early as possible, at the + start of 'grub.cfg'. + + The following options are still accepted for compatibility with +existing configurations, but have better replacements: + +'GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT' + Wait this many seconds before displaying the menu. If <ESC> or + <F4> are pressed, or <SHIFT> is held down during that time, display + the menu and wait for input according to 'GRUB_TIMEOUT'. If a + hotkey associated with a menu entry is pressed, boot the associated + menu entry immediately. If the timeout expires before either of + these happens, display the menu for the number of seconds specified + in 'GRUB_TIMEOUT' before booting the default entry. + + If you set 'GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT', you should also set + 'GRUB_TIMEOUT=0' so that the menu is not displayed at all unless + <ESC> or <F4> are pressed, or <SHIFT> is held down. + + This option is unset by default, and is deprecated in favour of the + less confusing 'GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=countdown' or + 'GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=hidden'. + +'GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET' + In conjunction with 'GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT', set this to 'true' to + suppress the verbose countdown while waiting for a key to be + pressed before displaying the menu. + + This option is unset by default, and is deprecated in favour of the + less confusing 'GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=countdown'. + +'GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_BUTTON' + Variant of 'GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT', used to support vendor-specific + power buttons. *Note Vendor power-on keys::. + + This option is unset by default, and is deprecated in favour of the + less confusing 'GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=countdown' or + 'GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=hidden'. + + For more detailed customisation of 'grub-mkconfig''s output, you may +edit the scripts in '/etc/grub.d' directly.

The first is if an initrd for the target +operating system is also present. The second is +'GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID' and if set to 'true', prevents 'grub-mkconfig' +from identifying the root file system by its UUID. The third is +'GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_PARTUUID' and if set to 'true', prevents +'grub-mkconfig' from identifying the root file system via the UUID of +its enclosing partition. If the variables are assigned any other value, +that value is considered equivalent to 'false'. The variables are also +considered to be set to 'false' if they are not set. + + When booting, the Linux kernel will delegate the task of mounting the +root filesystem to the initrd. Most initrd images determine the root +file system by checking the Linux kernel's command-line for the 'root' +key and use its value as the identification method of the root file +system. To improve the reliability of booting, most initrd images also +allow the root file system to be identified by its UUID. Because of this +behavior, the 'grub-mkconfig' command will set 'root' to 'root=UUID=...' +to provide the initrd with the filesystem UUID of the root file system. + + If no initrd is detected or 'GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID' is set to +'true' then 'grub-command' will identify the root filesystem by setting +the kernel command-line variable 'root' to 'root=PARTUUID=...' unless +'GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_PARTUUID' is also set to 'true'. If +'GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_PARTUUID' is also set to 'true', 'grub-command' will +identify by its Linux device name. + + The following table summarizes the behavior of the 'grub-mkconfig' +command. + +Initrd GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_PARTUUID GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID Linux Root +detected Set To Set To ID Method +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- +false false false part UUID +false false true part UUID +false true false dev name +false true true dev name +true false false fs UUID +true false true part UUID +true true false fs UUID +true true true dev name + + Remember, 'GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_PARTUUID' and 'GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID' +are also considered to be set to 'false' when they are unset. + + +File: grub.info, Node: Shell-like scripting, Next: Multi-boot manual config, Prev: Root Identifcation Heuristics, Up: Configuration + +6.3 Writing full configuration files directly +============================================= + +'grub.cfg' is written in GRUB's built-in scripting language, which has a +syntax quite similar to that of GNU Bash and other Bourne shell +derivatives. + +Words +===== + +A "word" is a sequence of characters considered as a single unit by +GRUB. Words are separated by "metacharacters", which are the following +plus space, tab, and newline: + + { } | & $ ; < > + + Quoting may be used to include metacharacters in words; see below. + +Reserved words +============== + +Reserved words have a special meaning to GRUB. The following words are +recognised as reserved when unquoted and either the first word of a +simple command or the third word of a 'for' command: + + ! [[ ]] { } + case do done elif else esac fi for function + if in menuentry select then time until while + + Not all of these reserved words have a useful purpose yet; some are +reserved for future expansion. + +Quoting +======= + +Quoting is used to remove the special meaning of certain characters or +words. It can be used to treat metacharacters as part of a word, to +prevent reserved words from being recognised as such, and to prevent +variable expansion. + + There are three quoting mechanisms: the escape character, single +quotes, and double quotes. + + A non-quoted backslash (\) is the "escape character". It preserves +the literal value of the next character that follows, with the exception +of newline. + + Enclosing characters in single quotes preserves the literal value of +each character within the quotes. A single quote may not occur between +single quotes, even when preceded by a backslash. + + Enclosing characters in double quotes preserves the literal value of +all characters within the quotes, with the exception of '$' and '\'. +The '$' character retains its special meaning within double quotes. The +backslash retains its special meaning only when followed by one of the +following characters: '$', '"', '\', or newline. A backslash-newline +pair is treated as a line continuation (that is, it is removed from the +input stream and effectively ignored(1) (*note Shell-like +scripting-Footnote-1::)). A double quote may be quoted within double +quotes by preceding it with a backslash. + +Variable expansion +================== + +The '$' character introduces variable expansion. The variable name to +be expanded may be enclosed in braces, which are optional but serve to +protect the variable to be expanded from characters immediately +following it which could be interpreted as part of the name. + + Normal variable names begin with an alphabetic character, followed by +zero or more alphanumeric characters. These names refer to entries in +the GRUB environment (*note Environment::). + + Positional variable names consist of one or more digits. They +represent parameters passed to function calls, with '$1' representing +the first parameter, and so on. + + The special variable name '?' expands to the exit status of the most +recently executed command. When positional variable names are active, +other special variable names '@', '*' and '#' are defined and they +expand to all positional parameters with necessary quoting, positional +parameters without any quoting, and positional parameter count +respectively. + +Comments +======== + +A word beginning with '#' causes that word and all remaining characters +on that line to be ignored. + +Simple commands +=============== + +A "simple command" is a sequence of words separated by spaces or tabs +and terminated by a semicolon or a newline. The first word specifies +the command to be executed. The remaining words are passed as arguments +to the invoked command. + + The return value of a simple command is its exit status. If the +reserved word '!' precedes the command, then the return value is instead +the logical negation of the command's exit status. + +Compound commands +================= + +A "compound command" is one of the following: + +for NAME in WORD ...; do LIST; done + The list of words following 'in' is expanded, generating a list of + items. The variable NAME is set to each element of this list in + turn, and LIST is executed each time. The return value is the exit + status of the last command that executes. If the expansion of the + items following 'in' results in an empty list, no commands are + executed, and the return status is 0. + +if LIST; then LIST; [elif LIST; then LIST;] ... [else LIST;] fi + The 'if' LIST is executed. If its exit status is zero, the 'then' + LIST is executed. Otherwise, each 'elif' LIST is executed in turn, + and if its exit status is zero, the corresponding 'then' LIST is + executed and the command completes. Otherwise, the 'else' LIST is + executed, if present. The exit status is the exit status of the + last command executed, or zero if no condition tested true. + +while COND; do LIST; done +until COND; do LIST; done + The 'while' command continuously executes the 'do' LIST as long as + the last command in COND returns an exit status of zero. The + 'until' command is identical to the 'while' command, except that + the test is negated; the 'do' LIST is executed as long as the last + command in COND returns a non-zero exit status. The exit status of + the 'while' and 'until' commands is the exit status of the last + 'do' LIST command executed, or zero if none was executed. + +function NAME { COMMAND; ... } + This defines a function named NAME. The "body" of the function is + the list of commands within braces, each of which must be + terminated with a semicolon or a newline. This list of commands + will be executed whenever NAME is specified as the name of a simple + command. Function definitions do not affect the exit status in + '$?'. When executed, the exit status of a function is the exit + status of the last command executed in the body. + +menuentry TITLE ['--class=class' ...] ['--users=users'] ['--unrestricted'] ['--hotkey=key'] ['--id=id'] { COMMAND; ... } + *Note menuentry::. + +Built-in Commands +================= + +Some built-in commands are also provided by GRUB script to help script +writers perform actions that are otherwise not possible. For example, +these include commands to jump out of a loop without fully completing +it, etc. + +break ['n'] + Exit from within a 'for', 'while', or 'until' loop. If 'n' is + specified, break 'n' levels. 'n' must be greater than or equal to + 1. If 'n' is greater than the number of enclosing loops, all + enclosing loops are exited. The return value is 0 unless 'n' is + not greater than or equal to 1. + +continue ['n'] + Resume the next iteration of the enclosing 'for', 'while' or + 'until' loop. If 'n' is specified, resume at the 'n'th enclosing + loop. 'n' must be greater than or equal to 1. If 'n' is greater + than the number of enclosing loops, the last enclosing loop (the + "top-level" loop) is resumed. The return value is 0 unless 'n' is + not greater than or equal to 1. + +return ['n'] + Causes a function to exit with the return value specified by 'n'. + If 'n' is omitted, the return status is that of the last command + executed in the function body. If used outside a function the + return status is false. + +setparams ['arg'] ... + Replace positional parameters starting with '$1' with arguments to + 'setparams'. + +shift ['n'] + The positional parameters from 'n'+1 ... are renamed to '$1'.... + Parameters represented by the numbers '$#' down to '$#'-'n'+1 are + unset. 'n' must be a non-negative number less than or equal to + '$#'. If 'n' is 0, no parameters are changed. If 'n' is not + given, it is assumed to be 1. If 'n' is greater than '$#', the + positional parameters are not changed.

You can also use UUIDs + with -fs-uuid UUID instead of -label LABEL. You could also use + direct 'root=hd0,msdosX' but this is not recommended due to device + name instability. + + +File: grub.info, Node: Embedded configuration, Prev: Multi-boot manual config, Up: Configuration + +6.5 Embedding a configuration file into GRUB +============================================ + +GRUB supports embedding a configuration file directly into the core +image, so that it is loaded before entering normal mode. This is +useful, for example, when it is not straightforward to find the real +configuration file, or when you need to debug problems with loading that +file. 'grub-install' uses this feature when it is not using BIOS disk +functions or when installing to a different disk from the one containing +'/boot/grub', in which case it needs to use the 'search' command (*note +search::) to find '/boot/grub'. + + To embed a configuration file, use the '-c' option to 'grub-mkimage'. +The file is copied into the core image, so it may reside anywhere on the +file system, and may be removed after running 'grub-mkimage'. + + After the embedded configuration file (if any) is executed, GRUB will +load the 'normal' module (*note normal::), which will then read the real +configuration file from '$prefix/grub.cfg'. By this point, the 'root' +variable will also have been set to the root device name. For example, +'prefix' might be set to '(hd0,1)/boot/grub', and 'root' might be set to +'hd0,1'. Thus, in most cases, the embedded configuration file only +needs to set the 'prefix' and 'root' variables, and then drop through to +GRUB's normal processing. A typical example of this might look like +this: + + search.fs_uuid 01234567-89ab-cdef-0123-456789abcdef root + set prefix=($root)/boot/grub + + (The 'search_fs_uuid' module must be included in the core image for +this example to work.) + + In more complex cases, it may be useful to read other configuration +files directly from the embedded configuration file. This allows such +things as reading files not called 'grub.cfg', or reading files from a +directory other than that where GRUB's loadable modules are installed. +To do this, include the 'configfile' and 'normal' modules in the core +image, and embed a configuration file that uses the 'configfile' command +to load another file. The following example of this also requires the +'echo', 'search_label', and 'test' modules to be included in the core +image: + + search.fs_label grub root + if [ -e /boot/grub/example/test1.cfg ]; then + set prefix=($root)/boot/grub + configfile /boot/grub/example/test1.cfg + else + if [ -e /boot/grub/example/test2.cfg ]; then + set prefix=($root)/boot/grub + configfile /boot/grub/example/test2.cfg + else + echo "Could not find an example configuration file!" + fi + fi + + The embedded configuration file may not contain menu entries +directly, but may only read them from elsewhere using 'configfile'. + + +File: grub.info, Node: Theme file format, Next: Network, Prev: Configuration, Up: Top + +7 Theme file format +******************* + +7.1 Introduction +================ + +The GRUB graphical menu supports themes that can customize the layout +and appearance of the GRUB boot menu. The theme is configured through a +plain text file that specifies the layout of the various GUI components +(including the boot menu, timeout progress bar, and text messages) as +well as the appearance using colors, fonts, and images. Example is +available in docs/example_theme.txt + +7.2 Theme Elements +================== + +7.2.1 Colors +------------ + +Colors can be specified in several ways: + + * HTML-style "#RRGGBB" or "#RGB" format, where *R*, *G*, and *B* are + hexadecimal digits (e.g., "#8899FF") + * as comma-separated decimal RGB values (e.g., "128, 128, 255") + * with "SVG 1.0 color names" (e.g., "cornflowerblue") which must be + specified in lowercase. + +7.2.2 Fonts +----------- + +The fonts GRUB uses "PFF2 font format" bitmap fonts. Fonts are +specified with full font names. Currently there is no provision for a +preference list of fonts, or deriving one font from another. Fonts are +loaded with the "loadfont" command in GRUB (*note loadfont::). To see +the list of loaded fonts, execute the "lsfonts" command (*note +lsfonts::). If there are too many fonts to fit on screen, do "set +pager=1" before executing "lsfonts". + +7.2.3 Progress Bar +------------------ + +Figure 7.1 + +Figure 7.2 + +Progress bars are used to display the remaining time before GRUB boots +the default menu entry. To create a progress bar that will display the +remaining time before automatic boot, simply create a "progress_bar" +component with the id "__timeout__". This indicates to GRUB that the +progress bar should be updated as time passes, and it should be made +invisible if the countdown to automatic boot is interrupted by the user. + + Progress bars may optionally have text displayed on them. This text +is controlled by variable "text" which contains a printf template with +the only argument %d is the number of seconds remaining. Additionally +special values "@TIMEOUT_NOTIFICATION_SHORT@", +"@TIMEOUT_NOTIFICATION_MIDDLE@", "@TIMEOUT_NOTIFICATION_LONG@" are +replaced with standard and translated templates. + +7.2.4 Circular Progress Indicator +--------------------------------- + +The circular progress indicator functions similarly to the progress bar. +When given an id of "__timeout__", GRUB updates the circular progress +indicator's value to indicate the time remaining. For the circular +progress indicator, there are two images used to render it: the *center* +image, and the *tick* image. The center image is rendered in the center +of the component, while the tick image is used to render each mark along +the circumference of the indicator. + +7.2.5 Labels +------------ + +Text labels can be placed on the boot screen. The font, color, and +horizontal alignment can be specified for labels. If a label is given +the id "__timeout__", then the "text" property for that label is also +updated with a message informing the user of the number of seconds +remaining until automatic boot. This is useful in case you want the +text displayed somewhere else instead of directly on the progress bar. + +7.2.6 Boot Menu +--------------- + +The boot menu where GRUB displays the menu entries from the "grub.cfg" +file. It is a list of items, where each item has a title and an +optional icon. The icon is selected based on the *classes* specified +for the menu entry. If there is a PNG file named "myclass.png" in the +"grub/themes/icons" directory, it will be displayed for items which have +the class *myclass*. The boot menu can be customized in several ways, +such as the font and color used for the menu entry title, and by +specifying styled boxes for the menu itself and for the selected item +highlight. + +7.2.7 Styled Boxes +------------------ + +One of the most important features for customizing the layout is the use +of *styled boxes*. A styled box is composed of 9 rectangular (and +potentially empty) regions, which are used to seamlessly draw the styled +box on screen: + +Northwest (nw) North (n) Northeast (ne) +West (w) Center (c) East (e) +Southwest (sw) South (s) Southeast (se) + + To support any size of box on screen, the center slice and the slices +for the top, bottom, and sides are all scaled to the correct size for +the component on screen, using the following rules: + + 1. The edge slices (north, south, east, and west) are scaled in the + direction of the edge they are adjacent to. For instance, the west + slice is scaled vertically. + 2. The corner slices (northwest, northeast, southeast, and southwest) + are not scaled. + 3. The center slice is scaled to fill the remaining space in the + middle. + + As an example of how an image might be sliced up, consider the styled +box used for a terminal view. + +Figure 7.3 + +7.2.8 Creating Styled Box Images +-------------------------------- + +The Inkscape_ scalable vector graphics editor is a very useful tool for +creating styled box images. One process that works well for slicing a +drawing into the necessary image slices is: + + 1. Create or open the drawing you'd like use. + 2. Create a new layer on the top of the layer stack. Make it visible. + Select this layer as the current layer. + 3. Draw 9 rectangles on your drawing where you'd like the slices to + be. Clear the fill option, and set the stroke to 1 pixel wide + solid stroke. The corners of the slices must meet precisely; if it + is off by a single pixel, it will probably be evident when the + styled box is rendered in the GRUB menu. You should probably go to + File | Document Properties | Grids and enable a grid or create a + guide (click on one of the rulers next to the drawing and drag over + the drawing; release the mouse button to place the guide) to help + place the rectangles precisely. + 4. Right click on the center slice rectangle and choose Object + Properties. Change the "Id" to "slice_c" and click Set. Repeat + this for the remaining 8 rectangles, giving them Id values of + "slice_n", "slice_ne", "slice_e", and so on according to the + location. + 5. Save the drawing. + 6. Select all the slice rectangles. With the slice layer selected, + you can simply press Ctrl+A to select all rectangles. The status + bar should indicate that 9 rectangles are selected. + 7. Click the layer hide icon for the slice layer in the layer palette. + The rectangles will remain selected, even though they are hidden. + 8. Choose File | Export Bitmap and check the *Batch export 9 selected + objects* box. Make sure that *Hide all except selected* is + unchecked. click *Export*. This will create PNG files in the same + directory as the drawing, named after the slices. These can now be + used for a styled box in a GRUB theme. + +7.3 Theme File Manual +===================== + +The theme file is a plain text file. Lines that begin with "#" are +ignored and considered comments. (Note: This may not be the case if the +previous line ended where a value was expected.) + + The theme file contains two types of statements: + 1. Global properties. + 2. Component construction. + +7.3.1 Global Properties +----------------------- + +7.3.2 Format +------------ + +Global properties are specified with the simple format: + * name1: value1 + * name2: "value which may contain spaces" + * name3: #88F + + In this example, name3 is assigned a color value. + +7.3.3 Global Property List +-------------------------- + +title-text Specifies the text to display at the top + center of the screen as a title. +title-font Defines the font used for the title + message at the top of the screen. +title-color Defines the color of the title message. +message-font Currently unused. Left for backward + compatibility. +message-color Currently unused. Left for backward + compatibility. +message-bg-color Currently unused. Left for backward + compatibility. +desktop-image Specifies the image to use as the + background. It will be scaled to fit the + screen size or proportionally scaled + depending on the scale method. +desktop-image-scale-methodSpecifies the scaling method for the + *desktop-image*. Options are "stretch", + "crop", "padding", "fitwidth", + "fitheight". "stretch" for fitting the + screen size. Otherwise it is + proportional scaling of a part of + *desktop-image* to the part of the + screen. "crop" part of the + *desktop-image* will be proportionally + scaled to fit the screen sizes. + "padding" the entire *desktop-image* will + be contained on the screen. "fitwidth" + for fitting the *desktop-image*'s width + with screen width. "fitheight" for + fitting the *desktop-image*'s height with + the screen height. Default is "stretch". +desktop-image-h-align Specifies the horizontal alignment of the + *desktop-image* if + *desktop-image-scale-method* isn't equeal + to "stretch". Options are "left", + "center", "right". Default is "center". +desktop-image-v-align Specifies the vertical alignment of the + *desktop-image* if + *desktop-image-scale-method* isn't equeal + to "stretch". Options are "top", + "center", "bottom". Default is "center". +desktop-color Specifies the color for the background if + *desktop-image* is not specified. +terminal-box Specifies the file name pattern for the + styled box slices used for the command + line terminal window. For example, + "terminal-box: terminal_*.png" will use + the images "terminal_c.png" as the center + area, "terminal_n.png" as the north (top) + edge, "terminal_nw.png" as the northwest + (upper left) corner, and so on. If the + image for any slice is not found, it will + simply be left empty. +terminal-border Specifies the border width of the + terminal window. +terminal-left Specifies the left coordinate of the + terminal window. +terminal-top Specifies the top coordinate of the + terminal window. +terminal-width Specifies the width of the terminal + window. +terminal-height Specifies the height of the terminal + window. + +7.3.4 Component Construction +---------------------------- + +Greater customizability comes is provided by components. A tree of +components forms the user interface. *Containers* are components that +can contain other components, and there is always a single root +component which is an instance of a *canvas* container. + + Components are created in the theme file by prefixing the type of +component with a '+' sign: + + ' + label { text="GRUB" font="aqui 11" color="#8FF" } ' + + properties of a component are specified as "name = value" (whitespace +surrounding tokens is optional and is ignored) where *value* may be: + * a single word (e.g., "align = center", "color = #FF8080"), + * a quoted string (e.g., "text = "Hello, World!""), or + * a tuple (e.g., "preferred_size = (120, 80)"). + +7.3.5 Component List +-------------------- + +The following is a list of the components and the properties they +support. + + * label A label displays a line of text. + + Properties: + id Set to "__timeout__" to display the time elapsed + to an automatical boot of the default entry. + text The text to display. If "id" is set to + "__timeout__" and no "text" property is set then + the amount of seconds will be shown. If set to + "@KEYMAP_SHORT@", "@KEYMAP_MIDDLE@" or + "@KEYMAP_LONG@" then predefined hotkey + information will be shown. + font The font to use for text display. + color The color of the text. + align The horizontal alignment of the text within the + component. Options are "left", "center" and + "right". + visible Set to "false" to hide the label. + + * image A component that displays an image. The image is scaled to + fit the component. + + Properties: + + file The full path to the image file to load. + + * progress_bar Displays a horizontally oriented progress bar. It can + be rendered using simple solid filled rectangles, or using a pair + of pixmap styled boxes. + + Properties: + + id Set to "__timeout__" to display the time elapsed + to an automatical boot of the default entry. + fg_color The foreground color for plain solid color + rendering. + bg_color The background color for plain solid color + rendering. + border_color The border color for plain solid color + rendering. + text_color The text color. + bar_style The styled box specification for the frame of + the progress bar. Example: + "progress_frame_*.png" If the value is equal to + "highlight_style" then no styled boxes will be + shown. + highlight_styleThe styled box specification for the highlighted + region of the progress bar. This box will be + used to paint just the highlighted region of the + bar, and will be increased in size as the bar + nears completion. Example: "progress_hl_*.png". + If the value is equal to "bar_style" then no + styled boxes will be shown. + highlight_overlayIf this option is set to "true" then the + highlight box side slices (every slice except + the center slice) will overlay the frame box + side slices. And the center slice of the + highlight box can move all the way (from top to + bottom), being drawn on the center slice of the + frame box. That way we can make a progress bar + with round-shaped edges so there won't be a free + space from the highlight to the frame in top and + bottom scrollbar positions. Default is "false". + font The font to use for progress bar. + text The text to display on the progress bar. If the + progress bar's ID is set to "__timeout__" and + the value of this property is set to + "@TIMEOUT_NOTIFICATION_SHORT@", + "@TIMEOUT_NOTIFICATION_MIDDLE@" or + "@TIMEOUT_NOTIFICATION_LONG@", then GRUB will + update this property with an informative message + as the timeout approaches. + + * circular_progress Displays a circular progress indicator. The + appearance of this component is determined by two images: the + *center* image and the *tick* image. The center image is generally + larger and will be drawn in the center of the component. Around + the circumference of a circle within the component, the tick image + will be drawn a certain number of times, depending on the + properties of the component. + + Properties: + + id Set to "__timeout__" to display the time + elapsed to an automatical boot of the + default entry. + center_bitmap The file name of the image to draw in the + center of the component. + tick_bitmap The file name of the image to draw for + the tick marks. + num_ticks The number of ticks that make up a full + circle. + ticks_disappear Boolean value indicating whether tick + marks should progressively appear, or + progressively disappear as *value* + approaches *end*. Specify "true" or + "false". Default is "false". + start_angle The position of the first tick mark to + appear or disappear. Measured in + "parrots", 1 "parrot" = 1 / 256 of the + full circle. Use values "xxx deg" or + "xxx \xc2\xb0" to set the angle in + degrees. + + * boot_menu Displays the GRUB boot menu. It allows selecting items + and executing them. + + Properties: + + item_font The font to use for the menu item + titles. + selected_item_font The font to use for the selected + menu item, or "inherit" (the + default) to use "item_font" for + the selected menu item as well. + item_color The color to use for the menu item + titles. + selected_item_color The color to use for the selected + menu item, or "inherit" (the + default) to use "item_color" for + the selected menu item as well. + icon_width The width of menu item icons. + Icons are scaled to the specified + size. + icon_height The height of menu item icons. + item_height The height of each menu item in + pixels. + item_padding The amount of space in pixels to + leave on each side of the menu + item contents. + item_icon_space The space between an item's icon + and the title text, in pixels. + item_spacing The amount of space to leave + between menu items, in pixels. + menu_pixmap_style The image file pattern for the + menu frame styled box. Example: + "menu_*.png" (this will use images + such as "menu_c.png", + "menu_w.png", 'menu_nw.png", etc.) + item_pixmap_style The image file pattern for the + item styled box. + selected_item_pixmap_style The image file pattern for the + selected item highlight styled + box. + scrollbar Boolean value indicating whether + the scroll bar should be drawn if + the frame and thumb styled boxes + are configured. + scrollbar_frame The image file pattern for the + entire scroll bar. Example: + "scrollbar_*.png" + scrollbar_thumb The image file pattern for the + scroll bar thumb (the part of the + scroll bar that moves as scrolling + occurs). Example: + "scrollbar_thumb_*.png" + scrollbar_thumb_overlay If this option is set to "true" + then the scrollbar thumb side + slices (every slice except the + center slice) will overlay the + scrollbar frame side slices. And + the center slice of the + scrollbar_thumb can move all the + way (from top to bottom), being + drawn on the center slice of the + scrollbar frame. That way we can + make a scrollbar with round-shaped + edges so there won't be a free + space from the thumb to the frame + in top and bottom scrollbar + positions. Default is "false". + scrollbar_slice The menu frame styled box's slice + in which the scrollbar will be + drawn. Possible values are + "west", "center", "east" + (default). "west" - the scrollbar + will be drawn in the west slice + (right-aligned). "east" - the + scrollbar will be drawn in the + east slice (left-aligned). + "center" - the scrollbar will be + drawn in the center slice. Note: + in case of "center" slice: a) If + the scrollbar should be drawn then + boot menu entry's width is + decreased by the scrollbar's width + and the scrollbar is drawn at the + right side of the center slice. + b) If the scrollbar won't be drawn + then the boot menu entry's width + is the width of the center slice. + c) We don't necessary need the + menu pixmap box to display the + scrollbar. + scrollbar_left_pad The left scrollbar padding in + pixels. Unused if + "scrollbar_slice" is "west". + scrollbar_right_pad The right scrollbar padding in + pixels. Unused if + "scrollbar_slice" is "east". + scrollbar_top_pad The top scrollbar padding in + pixels. + scrollbar_bottom_pad The bottom scrollbar padding in + pixels. + visible Set to "false" to hide the boot + menu. + + * canvas Canvas is a container that allows manual placement of + components within it. It does not alter the positions of its child + components. It assigns all child components their preferred sizes. + + * hbox The *hbox* container lays out its children from left to right, + giving each one its preferred width. The height of each child is + set to the maximum of the preferred heights of all children. + + * vbox The *vbox* container lays out its children from top to bottom, + giving each one its preferred height. The width of each child is + set to the maximum of the preferred widths of all children. + +7.3.6 Common properties +----------------------- + +The following properties are supported by all components: +'left' + The distance from the left border of container to left border of + the object in either of three formats: + x Value in pixels + p% Percentage + p%+x mixture of both +'top' + The distance from the left border of container to left border of + the object in same format. +'width' + The width of object in same format. +'height' + The height of object in same format. +'id' + The identifier for the component. This can be any arbitrary + string. The ID can be used by scripts to refer to various + components in the GUI component tree. Currently, there is one + special ID value that GRUB recognizes: + + "__timeout__" Component with this ID will be updated by GRUB + and will indicate time elapsed to an automatical + boot of the default entry.

To connect one computer with another via a serial line, +you need to prepare a null-modem (cross) serial cable, and you may need +to have multiport serial boards, if your computer doesn't have extra +serial ports. In addition, a terminal emulator is also required, such +as minicom. Refer to a manual of your operating system, for more +information. + + As for GRUB, the instruction to set up a serial terminal is quite +simple. Here is an example: + + grub> serial --unit=0 --speed=9600 + grub> terminal_input serial; terminal_output serial + + The command 'serial' initializes the serial unit 0 with the speed +9600bps. The serial unit 0 is usually called 'COM1', so, if you want to +use COM2, you must specify '--unit=1' instead. This command accepts +many other options, so please refer to *note serial::, for more details. + + The commands 'terminal_input' (*note terminal_input::) and +'terminal_output' (*note terminal_output::) choose which type of +terminal you want to use. In the case above, the terminal will be a +serial terminal, but you can also pass 'console' to the command, as +'terminal_input serial console'. In this case, a terminal in which you +press any key will be selected as a GRUB terminal. In the example +above, note that you need to put both commands on the same command line, +as you will lose the ability to type commands on the console after the +first command. + + However, note that GRUB assumes that your terminal emulator is +compatible with VT100 by default. This is true for most terminal +emulators nowadays, but you should pass the option '--dumb' to the +command if your terminal emulator is not VT100-compatible or implements +few VT100 escape sequences. If you specify this option then GRUB +provides you with an alternative menu interface, because the normal menu +requires several fancy features of your terminal. + + +File: grub.info, Node: Vendor power-on keys, Next: Images, Prev: Serial terminal, Up: Top + +10 Using GRUB with vendor power-on keys +*************************************** + +Some laptop vendors provide an additional power-on button which boots +another OS. GRUB supports such buttons with the 'GRUB_TIMEOUT_BUTTON', +'GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE_BUTTON', 'GRUB_DEFAULT_BUTTON', and +'GRUB_BUTTON_CMOS_ADDRESS' variables in default/grub (*note Simple +configuration::). 'GRUB_TIMEOUT_BUTTON', 'GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE_BUTTON', +and 'GRUB_DEFAULT_BUTTON' are used instead of the corresponding +variables without the '_BUTTON' suffix when powered on using the special +button.

Here is +a short overview of them. + +'boot.img' + On PC BIOS systems, this image is the first part of GRUB to start. + It is written to a master boot record (MBR) or to the boot sector + of a partition. Because a PC boot sector is 512 bytes, the size of + this image is exactly 512 bytes. + + The sole function of 'boot.img' is to read the first sector of the + core image from a local disk and jump to it. Because of the size + restriction, 'boot.img' cannot understand any file system + structure, so 'grub-install' hardcodes the location of the first + sector of the core image into 'boot.img' when installing GRUB. + +'diskboot.img' + This image is used as the first sector of the core image when + booting from a hard disk. It reads the rest of the core image into + memory and starts the kernel. Since file system handling is not + yet available, it encodes the location of the core image using a + block list format. + +'cdboot.img' + This image is used as the first sector of the core image when + booting from a CD-ROM drive. It performs a similar function to + 'diskboot.img'. + +'pxeboot.img' + This image is used as the start of the core image when booting from + the network using PXE. *Note Network::. + +'lnxboot.img' + This image may be placed at the start of the core image in order to + make GRUB look enough like a Linux kernel that it can be booted by + LILO using an 'image=' section. + +'kernel.img' + This image contains GRUB's basic run-time facilities: frameworks + for device and file handling, environment variables, the rescue + mode command-line parser, and so on. It is rarely used directly, + but is built into all core images. + +'core.img' + This is the core image of GRUB. It is built dynamically from the + kernel image and an arbitrary list of modules by the 'grub-mkimage' + program. Usually, it contains enough modules to access + '/boot/grub', and loads everything else (including menu handling, + the ability to load target operating systems, and so on) from the + file system at run-time. The modular design allows the core image + to be kept small, since the areas of disk where it must be + installed are often as small as 32KB. + + *Note BIOS installation::, for details on where the core image can + be installed on PC systems. + +'*.mod' + Everything else in GRUB resides in dynamically loadable modules. + These are often loaded automatically, or built into the core image + if they are essential, but may also be loaded manually using the + 'insmod' command (*note insmod::). + +For GRUB Legacy users +===================== + +GRUB 2 has a different design from GRUB Legacy, and so correspondences +with the images it used cannot be exact. Nevertheless, GRUB Legacy +users often ask questions in the terms they are familiar with, and so +here is a brief guide to how GRUB 2's images relate to that. + +'stage1' + Stage 1 from GRUB Legacy was very similar to 'boot.img' in GRUB 2, + and they serve the same function. + +'*_stage1_5' + In GRUB Legacy, Stage 1.5's function was to include enough + filesystem code to allow the much larger Stage 2 to be read from an + ordinary filesystem. In this respect, its function was similar to + 'core.img' in GRUB 2. However, 'core.img' is much more capable + than Stage 1.5 was; since it offers a rescue shell, it is sometimes + possible to recover manually in the event that it is unable to load + any other modules, for example if partition numbers have changed. + 'core.img' is built in a more flexible way, allowing GRUB 2 to + support reading modules from advanced disk types such as LVM and + RAID. + + GRUB Legacy could run with only Stage 1 and Stage 2 in some limited + configurations, while GRUB 2 requires 'core.img' and cannot work + without it. + +'stage2' + GRUB 2 has no single Stage 2 image.

Because of BIOS limitations, GRUB cannot distinguish +between IDE, ESDI, SCSI, or others. You must know yourself which BIOS +device is equivalent to which OS device. Normally, that will be clear +if you see the files in a device or use the command 'search' (*note +search::). + +* Menu: + +* Device syntax:: How to specify devices +* File name syntax:: How to specify files +* Block list syntax:: How to specify block lists + + +File: grub.info, Node: Device syntax, Next: File name syntax, Up: Filesystem + +13.1 How to specify devices +=========================== + +The device syntax is like this: + + (DEVICE[,PARTMAP-NAME1PART-NUM1[,PARTMAP-NAME2PART-NUM2[,...]]]) + + '[]' means the parameter is optional. DEVICE depends on the disk +driver in use. BIOS and EFI disks use either 'fd' or 'hd' followed by a +digit, like 'fd0', or 'cd'. AHCI, PATA (ata), crypto, USB use the name +of driver followed by a number. Memdisk and host are limited to one +disk and so it's refered just by driver name. RAID (md), ofdisk +(ieee1275 and nand), LVM (lvm), LDM, virtio (vdsk) and arcdisk (arc) use +intrinsic name of disk prefixed by driver name. Additionally just +"nand" refers to the disk aliased as "nand". Conflicts are solved by +suffixing a number if necessarry. Commas need to be escaped. Loopback +uses whatever name specified to 'loopback' command. Hostdisk uses names +specified in device.map as long as it's of the form [fhc]d[0-9]* or +hostdisk/<OS DEVICE>. For crypto and RAID (md) additionally you can use +the syntax <driver name>uuid/<uuid>. For LVM additionally you can use +the syntax lvmid/<volume-group-uuid>/<volume-uuid>. + + (fd0) + (hd0) + (cd) + (ahci0) + (ata0) + (crypto0) + (usb0) + (cryptouuid/123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef0) + (mduuid/123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef0) + (lvm/system-root) + (lvmid/F1ikgD-2RES-306G-il9M-7iwa-4NKW-EbV1NV/eLGuCQ-L4Ka-XUgR-sjtJ-ffch-bajr-fCNfz5) + (md/myraid) + (md/0) + (ieee1275/disk2) + (ieee1275//pci@1f\,0/ide@d/disk@2) + (nand) + (memdisk) + (host) + (myloop) + (hostdisk//dev/sda) + + PART-NUM represents the partition number of DEVICE, starting from +one. PARTNAME is optional but is recommended since disk may have +several top-level partmaps. Specifying third and later component you +can access to subpartitions. + + The syntax '(hd0)' represents using the entire disk (or the MBR when +installing GRUB), while the syntax '(hd0,1)' represents using the first +partition of the disk (or the boot sector of the partition when +installing GRUB). + + (hd0,msdos1) + (hd0,msdos1,msdos5) + (hd0,msdos1,bsd3) + (hd0,netbsd1) + (hd0,gpt1) + (hd0,1,3) + + If you enabled the network support, the special drives +'(PROTOCOL[,SERVER])' are also available. Supported protocols are +'http' and 'tftp'. If SERVER is omitted, value of environment variable +'net_default_server' is used. Before using the network drive, you must +initialize the network. *Note Network::, for more information. + + If you boot GRUB from a CD-ROM, '(cd)' is available. *Note Making a +GRUB bootable CD-ROM::, for details. + + +File: grub.info, Node: File name syntax, Next: Block list syntax, Prev: Device syntax, Up: Filesystem + +13.2 How to specify files +========================= + +There are two ways to specify files, by "absolute file name" and by +"block list". + + An absolute file name resembles a Unix absolute file name, using '/' +for the directory separator (not '\' as in DOS). One example is +'(hd0,1)/boot/grub/grub.cfg'. This means the file '/boot/grub/grub.cfg' +in the first partition of the first hard disk. If you omit the device +name in an absolute file name, GRUB uses GRUB's "root device" +implicitly. So if you set the root device to, say, '(hd1,1)' by the +command 'set root=(hd1,1)' (*note set::), then '/boot/kernel' is the +same as '(hd1,1)/boot/kernel'. + + On ZFS filesystem the first path component must be +VOLUME'@'[SNAPSHOT]. So '/rootvol@snap-129/boot/grub/grub.cfg' refers +to file '/boot/grub/grub.cfg' in snapshot of volume 'rootvol' with name +'snap-129'. Trailing '@' after volume name is mandatory even if +snapshot name is omitted. + + +File: grub.info, Node: Block list syntax, Prev: File name syntax, Up: Filesystem + +13.3 How to specify block lists +=============================== + +A block list is used for specifying a file that doesn't appear in the +filesystem, like a chainloader. The syntax is +'[OFFSET]+LENGTH[,[OFFSET]+LENGTH]...'. Here is an example: + + 0+100,200+1,300+300 + + This represents that GRUB should read blocks 0 through 99, block 200, +and blocks 300 through 599. If you omit an offset, then GRUB assumes +the offset is zero. + + Like the file name syntax (*note File name syntax::), if a blocklist +does not contain a device name, then GRUB uses GRUB's "root device". So +'(hd0,2)+1' is the same as '+1' when the root device is '(hd0,2)'. + + +File: grub.info, Node: Interface, Next: Environment, Prev: Filesystem, Up: Top + +14 GRUB's user interface +************************ + +GRUB has both a simple menu interface for choosing preset entries from a +configuration file, and a highly flexible command-line for performing +any desired combination of boot commands. + + GRUB looks for its configuration file as soon as it is loaded. If +one is found, then the full menu interface is activated using whatever +entries were found in the file. If you choose the "command-line" menu +option, or if the configuration file was not found, then GRUB drops to +the command-line interface. + +* Menu: + +* Command-line interface:: The flexible command-line interface +* Menu interface:: The simple menu interface +* Menu entry editor:: Editing a menu entry + + +File: grub.info, Node: Command-line interface, Next: Menu interface, Up: Interface + +14.1 The flexible command-line interface +======================================== + +The command-line interface provides a prompt and after it an editable +text area much like a command-line in Unix or DOS. Each command is +immediately executed after it is entered(1) (*note Command-line +interface-Footnote-1::). The commands (*note Command-line and menu +entry commands::) are a subset of those available in the configuration +file, used with exactly the same syntax. + + Cursor movement and editing of the text on the line can be done via a +subset of the functions available in the Bash shell: + +<C-f> +<PC right key> + Move forward one character. + +<C-b> +<PC left key> + Move back one character. + +<C-a> +<HOME> + Move to the start of the line. + +<C-e> +<END> + Move the the end of the line. + +<C-d> +<DEL> + Delete the character underneath the cursor. + +<C-h> +<BS> + Delete the character to the left of the cursor. + +<C-k> + Kill the text from the current cursor position to the end of the + line. + +<C-u> + Kill backward from the cursor to the beginning of the line. + +<C-y> + Yank the killed text back into the buffer at the cursor. + +<C-p> +<PC up key> + Move up through the history list. + +<C-n> +<PC down key> + Move down through the history list. + + When typing commands interactively, if the cursor is within or before +the first word in the command-line, pressing the <TAB> key (or <C-i>) +will display a listing of the available commands, and if the cursor is +after the first word, the '<TAB>' will provide a completion listing of +disks, partitions, and file names depending on the context. Note that +to obtain a list of drives, one must open a parenthesis, as 'root ('. + + Note that you cannot use the completion functionality in the TFTP +filesystem. This is because TFTP doesn't support file name listing for +the security. + + +File: grub.info, Node: Command-line interface-Footnotes, Up: Command-line interface + + (1) However, this behavior will be changed in the future version, in +a user-invisible way. + + +File: grub.info, Node: Menu interface, Next: Menu entry editor, Prev: Command-line interface, Up: Interface + +14.2 The simple menu interface +============================== + +The menu interface is quite easy to use. Its commands are both +reasonably intuitive and described on screen. + + Basically, the menu interface provides a list of "boot entries" to +the user to choose from. Use the arrow keys to select the entry of +choice, then press <RET> to run it. An optional timeout is available to +boot the default entry (the first one if not set), which is aborted by +pressing any key. + + Commands are available to enter a bare command-line by pressing <c> +(which operates exactly like the non-config-file version of GRUB, but +allows one to return to the menu if desired by pressing <ESC>) or to +edit any of the "boot entries" by pressing <e>. + + If you protect the menu interface with a password (*note Security::), +all you can do is choose an entry by pressing <RET>, or press <p> to +enter the password. + + +File: grub.info, Node: Menu entry editor, Prev: Menu interface, Up: Interface + +14.3 Editing a menu entry +========================= + +The menu entry editor looks much like the main menu interface, but the +lines in the menu are individual commands in the selected entry instead +of entry names. + + If an <ESC> is pressed in the editor, it aborts all the changes made +to the configuration entry and returns to the main menu interface. + + Each line in the menu entry can be edited freely, and you can add new +lines by pressing <RET> at the end of a line. To boot the edited entry, +press <Ctrl-x>. + + Although GRUB unfortunately does not support "undo", you can do +almost the same thing by just returning to the main menu using <ESC>. + + +File: grub.info, Node: Environment, Next: Commands, Prev: Interface, Up: Top + +15 GRUB environment variables +***************************** + +GRUB supports environment variables which are rather like those offered +by all Unix-like systems.

For example, you might want to set the +default menu entry based on what was selected the last time. GRUB +deliberately does not implement support for writing files in order to +minimise the possibility of the boot loader being responsible for file +system corruption, so a GRUB configuration file cannot just create a +file in the ordinary way. However, GRUB provides an "environment block" +which can be used to save a small amount of state. + + The environment block is a preallocated 1024-byte file, which +normally lives in '/boot/grub/grubenv' (although you should not assume +this). At boot time, the 'load_env' command (*note load_env::) loads +environment variables from it, and the 'save_env' (*note save_env::) +command saves environment variables to it. From a running system, the +'grub-editenv' utility can be used to edit the environment block. + + For safety reasons, this storage is only available when installed on +a plain disk (no LVM or RAID), using a non-checksumming filesystem (no +ZFS), and using BIOS or EFI functions (no ATA, USB or IEEE1275). + + 'grub-mkconfig' uses this facility to implement 'GRUB_SAVEDEFAULT' +(*note Simple configuration::). + + +File: grub.info, Node: Commands, Next: Internationalisation, Prev: Environment, Up: Top + +16 The list of available commands +********************************* + +In this chapter, we list all commands that are available in GRUB. + + Commands belong to different groups. A few can only be used in the +global section of the configuration file (or "menu"); most of them can +be entered on the command-line and can be used either anywhere in the +menu or specifically in the menu entries. + + In rescue mode, only the 'insmod' (*note insmod::), 'ls' (*note +ls::), 'set' (*note set::), and 'unset' (*note unset::) commands are +normally available.

All text files +(including config) are assumed to be encoded in UTF-8. + +17.2 Filesystems +================ + +NTFS, JFS, UDF, HFS+, exFAT, long filenames in FAT, Joliet part of +ISO9660 are treated as UTF-16 as per specification. AFS and BFS are +read as UTF-8, again according to specification. BtrFS, cpio, tar, +squash4, minix, minix2, minix3, ROMFS, ReiserFS, XFS, ext2, ext3, ext4, +FAT (short names), F2FS, RockRidge part of ISO9660, nilfs2, UFS1, UFS2 +and ZFS are assumed to be UTF-8. This might be false on systems +configured with legacy charset but as long as the charset used is +superset of ASCII you should be able to access ASCII-named files. And +it's recommended to configure your system to use UTF-8 to access the +filesystem, convmv may help with migration. ISO9660 (plain) filenames +are specified as being ASCII or being described with unspecified escape +sequences. GRUB assumes that the ISO9660 names are UTF-8 (since any +ASCII is valid UTF-8). There are some old CD-ROMs which use CP437 in +non-compliant way. You're still able to access files with names +containing only ASCII characters on such filesystems though. You're +also able to access any file if the filesystem contains valid Joliet +(UTF-16) or RockRidge (UTF-8). AFFS, SFS and HFS never use unicode and +GRUB assumes them to be in Latin1, Latin1 and MacRoman respectively. +GRUB handles filesystem case-insensitivity however no attempt is +performed at case conversion of international characters so e.g. a file +named lowercase greek alpha is treated as different from the one named +as uppercase alpha. The filesystems in questions are NTFS (except POSIX +namespace), HFS+ (configurable at mkfs time, default insensitive), SFS +(configurable at mkfs time, default insensitive), JFS (configurable at +mkfs time, default sensitive), HFS, AFFS, FAT, exFAT and ZFS +(configurable on per-subvolume basis by property "casesensitivity", +default sensitive). On ZFS subvolumes marked as case insensitive files +containing lowercase international characters are inaccessible. Also +like all supported filesystems except HFS+ and ZFS (configurable on +per-subvolume basis by property "normalization", default none) GRUB +makes no attempt at check of canonical equivalence so a file name +u-diaresis is treated as distinct from u+combining diaresis. This +however means that in order to access file on HFS+ its name must be +specified in normalisation form D. On normalized ZFS subvolumes +filenames out of normalisation are inaccessible. + +17.3 Output terminal +==================== + +Firmware output console "console" on ARC and IEEE1275 are limited to +ASCII. + + BIOS firmware console and VGA text are limited to ASCII and some +pseudographics. + + None of above mentioned is appropriate for displaying international +and any unsupported character is replaced with question mark except +pseudographics which we attempt to approximate with ASCII. + + EFI console on the other hand nominally supports UTF-16 but actual +language coverage depends on firmware and may be very limited. + + The encoding used on serial can be chosen with 'terminfo' as either +ASCII, UTF-8 or "visual UTF-8". Last one is against the specification +but results in correct rendering of right-to-left on some readers which +don't have own bidi implementation. + + On emu GRUB checks if charset is UTF-8 and uses it if so and uses +ASCII otherwise. + + When using gfxterm or gfxmenu GRUB itself is responsible for +rendering the text. In this case GRUB is limited by loaded fonts. If +fonts contain all required characters then bidirectional text, cursive +variants and combining marks other than enclosing, half (e.g. left half +tilde or combining overline) and double ones. Ligatures aren't +supported though. This should cover European, Middle Eastern (if you +don't mind lack of lam-alif ligature in Arabic) and East Asian scripts. +Notable unsupported scripts are Brahmic family and derived as well as +Mongolian, Tifinagh, Korean Jamo (precomposed characters have no +problem) and tonal writing (2e5-2e9). GRUB also ignores deprecated (as +specified in Unicode) characters (e.g. tags). GRUB also doesn't handle +so called "annotation characters" If you can complete either of two +lists or, better, propose a patch to improve rendering, please contact +developer team. + +17.4 Input terminal +=================== + +Firmware console on BIOS, IEEE1275 and ARC doesn't allow you to enter +non-ASCII characters. EFI specification allows for such but author is +unaware of any actual implementations. Serial input is currently +limited for latin1 (unlikely to change). Own keyboard implementations +(at_keyboard and usb_keyboard) supports any key but work on +one-char-per-keystroke. So no dead keys or advanced input method. Also +there is no keymap change hotkey. In practice it makes difficult to +enter any text using non-Latin alphabet. Moreover all current input +consumers are limited to ASCII. + +17.5 Gettext +============ + +GRUB supports being translated. For this you need to have language *.mo +files in $prefix/locale, load gettext module and set "lang" variable. + +17.6 Regexp +=========== + +Regexps work on unicode characters, however no attempt at checking +cannonical equivalence has been made. Moreover the classes like +[:alpha:] match only ASCII subset. + +17.7 Other +========== + +Currently GRUB always uses YEAR-MONTH-DAY HOUR:MINUTE:SECOND [WEEKDAY] +24-hour datetime format but weekdays are translated. GRUB always uses +the decimal number format with [0-9] as digits and . as descimal +separator and no group separator. IEEE1275 aliases are matched +case-insensitively except non-ASCII which is matched as binary. Similar +behaviour is for matching OSBundleRequired. Since IEEE1275 aliases and +OSBundleRequired don't contain any non-ASCII it should never be a +problem in practice. Case-sensitive identifiers are matched as raw +strings, no canonical equivalence check is performed. Case-insenstive +identifiers are matched as RAW but additionally [a-z] is equivalent to +[A-Z]. GRUB-defined identifiers use only ASCII and so should +user-defined ones. Identifiers containing non-ASCII may work but aren't +supported. Only the ASCII space characters (space U+0020, tab U+000b, +CR U+000d and LF U+000a) are recognised. Other unicode space characters +aren't a valid field separator.

For +most systems, this is reasonable since anyone with direct physical +access has a variety of other ways to gain full access, and requiring +authentication at the boot loader level would only serve to make it +difficult to recover broken systems. + + However, in some environments, such as kiosks, it may be appropriate +to lock down the boot loader to require authentication before performing +certain operations. + + The 'password' (*note password::) and 'password_pbkdf2' (*note +password_pbkdf2::) commands can be used to define users, each of which +has an associated password. 'password' sets the password in plain text, +requiring 'grub.cfg' to be secure; 'password_pbkdf2' sets the password +hashed using the Password-Based Key Derivation Function (RFC 2898), +requiring the use of 'grub-mkpasswd-pbkdf2' (*note Invoking +grub-mkpasswd-pbkdf2::) to generate password hashes. + + In order to enable authentication support, the 'superusers' +environment variable must be set to a list of usernames, separated by +any of spaces, commas, semicolons, pipes, or ampersands. Superusers are +permitted to use the GRUB command line, edit menu entries, and execute +any menu entry. If 'superusers' is set, then use of the command line +and editing of menu entries are automatically restricted to superusers. +Setting 'superusers' to empty string effectively disables both access to +CLI and editing of menu entries. Note: The environment variable needs +to be exported to also affect the section defined by the 'submenu' +command (*note submenu::). + + Other users may be allowed to execute specific menu entries by giving +a list of usernames (as above) using the '--users' option to the +'menuentry' command (*note menuentry::). If the '--unrestricted' option +is used for a menu entry, then that entry is unrestricted. If the +'--users' option is not used for a menu entry, then that only superusers +are able to use it. + + Putting this together, a typical 'grub.cfg' fragment might look like +this: + + set superusers="root" + password_pbkdf2 root grub.pbkdf2.sha512.10000.biglongstring + password user1 insecure + + menuentry "May be run by any user" --unrestricted { + set root=(hd0,1) + linux /vmlinuz + } + + menuentry "Superusers only" --users "" { + set root=(hd0,1) + linux /vmlinuz single + } + + menuentry "May be run by user1 or a superuser" --users user1 { + set root=(hd0,2) + chainloader +1 + } + + The 'grub-mkconfig' program does not yet have built-in support for +generating configuration files with authentication.

'foo.sig' must contain a valid digital +signature over the contents of 'foo', which can be verified with a +public key currently trusted by GRUB (*note list_trusted::, *note +trust::, and *note distrust::). If validation fails, then file 'foo' +cannot be opened. This failure may halt or otherwise impact the boot +process. + + An initial trusted public key can be embedded within the GRUB +'core.img' using the '--pubkey' option to 'grub-install' (*note Invoking +grub-install::). + + GRUB uses GPG-style detached signatures (meaning that a file +'foo.sig' will be produced when file 'foo' is signed), and currently +supports the DSA and RSA signing algorithms.

We try to keep all platforms at the level. Unfortunately +some platforms are better supported than others. This is detailed in +current and 2 following sections. + + All platforms have an artificially GRUB imposed disk size restriction +of 1 EiB. In some cases, larger disk sizes can be used, but access will +not be allowed beyond 1 EiB. + + LUKS2 devices with size larger than 16 EiB are currently not +supported. They can not be created as crypto devices by cryptomount, so +can not even be partially read from. LUKS have no limitations other +than those imposed by the format. + + ARC platform is unable to change datetime (firmware doesn't seem to +provide a function for it). EMU has similar limitation. + + On EMU platform no serial port is available. + + Console charset refers only to firmware-assisted console. gfxterm is +always Unicode (see Internationalisation section for its limitations). +Serial is configurable to UTF-8 or ASCII (see Internationalisation). In +case of qemu and coreboot ports the refered console is vga_text. +Loongson always uses gfxterm. + + Most limited one is ASCII. CP437 provides additionally +pseudographics. GRUB2 doesn't use any language characters from CP437 as +often CP437 is replaced by national encoding compatible only in +pseudographics. Unicode is the most versatile charset which supports +many languages. However the actual console may be much more limited +depending on firmware + + On BIOS, network is supported only if the image is loaded through +network. On sparc64, GRUB is unable to determine which server it was +booted from. + + Direct ATA/AHCI support allows to circumvent various firmware +limitations but isn't needed for normal operation except on baremetal +ports. + + AT keyboard support allows keyboard layout remapping and support for +keys not available through firmware. It isn't needed for normal +operation except baremetal ports. + + Speaker allows morse and spkmodem communication. + + USB support provides benefits similar to ATA (for USB disks) or AT +(for USB keyboards). In addition it allows USBserial. + + Chainloading refers to the ability to load another bootloader through +the same protocol + + Hints allow faster disk discovery by already knowing in advance which +is the disk in question. On some platforms hints are correct unless you +move the disk between boots. On other platforms it's just an educated +guess. Note that hint failure results in just reduced performance, not +a failure + + BadRAM is the ability to mark some of the RAM as "bad". Note: due to +protocol limitations mips-loongson (with Linux protocol) and +mips-qemu_mips can use only memory up to first hole. + + Bootlocation is ability of GRUB to automatically detect where it +boots from. "disk" means the detection is limited to detecting the disk +with partition being discovered on install time. "partition" means that +disk and partiton can be automatically discovered. "file" means that +boot image file name as well as disk and partition can be discovered. +For consistency, default install ignores partition and relies solely on +disk detection. If no bootlocation discovery is available or boot and +grub-root disks are different, UUID is used instead.

'device.map' (*note Device map::) can be used to + override this, but it is usually better to use UUIDs or file system + labels and avoid depending on drive ordering entirely. + + * At least on BIOS systems, if you tell 'grub-install' to install + GRUB to a partition but GRUB has already been installed in the + master boot record, then the GRUB installation in the partition + will be ignored. + + * If possible, it is generally best to avoid installing GRUB to a + partition (unless it is a special partition for the use of GRUB + alone, such as the BIOS Boot Partition used on GPT). Doing this + means that GRUB may stop being able to read its core image due to a + file system moving blocks around, such as while defragmenting, + running checks, or even during normal operation.

You do not normally need to + set this; 'grub-mount' will automatically set the root device to + the root of the supplied file system. + + If DEVICE is just a number, then it will be treated as a partition + number within the supplied image. This means that, if you have an + image of an entire disk in 'disk.img', then you can use this + command to mount its second partition: + + grub-mount -r 2 disk.img mount-point + +'-v' +'--verbose' + Print verbose messages. + + +File: grub.info, Node: Invoking grub-probe, Next: Invoking grub-script-check, Prev: Invoking grub-mount, Up: Top + +29 Invoking grub-probe +********************** + +The program 'grub-probe' probes device information for a given path or +device. + + grub-probe --target=fs /boot/grub + grub-probe --target=drive --device /dev/sda1 + + 'grub-probe' must be given a path or device as a non-option argument, +and also accepts the following options: + +'--help' + Print a summary of the command-line options and exit. + +'--version' + Print the version number of GRUB and exit. + +'-d' +'--device' + If this option is given, then the non-option argument is a system + device name (such as '/dev/sda1'), and 'grub-probe' will print + information about that device.

See + <http://sources.redhat.com/binutils/>, to obtain information on how + to get the latest version. + + GRUB is available from the GNU alpha archive site +<ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/grub> or any of its mirrors. The file will be +named grub-version.tar.gz. The current version is 2.06, so the file you +should grab is: + + <ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/grub/grub-2.06.tar.gz> + + To unbundle GRUB use the instruction: + + zcat grub-2.06.tar.gz | tar xvf - + + which will create a directory called 'grub-2.06' with all the +sources. You can look at the file 'INSTALL' for detailed instructions +on how to build and install GRUB, but you should be able to just do: + + cd grub-2.06 + ./configure + make install + + Also, the latest version is available using Git. See +<http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/grub-download.html> for more +information. + + +File: grub.info, Node: Reporting bugs, Next: Future, Prev: Obtaining and Building GRUB, Up: Top + +Appendix B Reporting bugs +************************* + +These are the guideline for how to report bugs. Take a look at this +list below before you submit bugs: + + 1. Before getting unsettled, read this manual through and through. + Also, see the GNU GRUB FAQ + (http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/grub-faq.html). + + 2. Always mention the information on your GRUB. The version number and + the configuration are quite important. If you build it yourself, + write the options specified to the configure script and your + operating system, including the versions of gcc and binutils. + + 3. If you have trouble with the installation, inform us of how you + installed GRUB. Don't omit error messages, if any. Just 'GRUB + hangs up when it boots' is not enough. + + The information on your hardware is also essential. These are + especially important: the geometries and the partition tables of + your hard disk drives and your BIOS. + + 4. If GRUB cannot boot your operating system, write down _everything_ + you see on the screen. Don't paraphrase them, like 'The foo OS + crashes with GRUB, even though it can boot with the bar boot loader + just fine'. Mention the commands you executed, the messages + printed by them, and information on your operating system including + the version number. + + 5. Explain what you wanted to do. It is very useful to know your + purpose and your wish, and how GRUB didn't satisfy you. + + 6. If you can investigate the problem yourself, please do. That will + give you and us much more information on the problem. Attaching a + patch is even better. + + When you attach a patch, make the patch in unified diff format, and + write ChangeLog entries. But, even when you make a patch, don't + forget to explain the problem, so that we can understand what your + patch is for. + + 7. Write down anything that you think might be related. Please + understand that we often need to reproduce the same problem you + encountered in our environment. So your information should be + sufficient for us to do the same thing--Don't forget that we cannot + see your computer directly. If you are not sure whether to state a + fact or leave it out, state it! Reporting too many things is much + better than omitting something important. + + If you follow the guideline above, submit a report to the Bug +Tracking System (http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?group=grub). +Alternatively, you can submit a report via electronic mail to +<bug-grub@gnu.org>, but we strongly recommend that you use the Bug +Tracking System, because e-mail can be passed over easily. + + Once we get your report, we will try to fix the bugs. + + +File: grub.info, Node: Future, Next: Copying This Manual, Prev: Reporting bugs, Up: Top + +Appendix C Where GRUB will go +***************************** + +GRUB 2 is now quite stable and used in many production systems. We are +currently working towards a 2.0 release. + + If you are interested in the development of GRUB 2, take a look at +the homepage (http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/grub.html). + + +File: grub.info, Node: Copying This Manual, Next: Index, Prev: Future, Up: Top + +Appendix D Copying This Manual +****************************** + +* Menu: + +* GNU Free Documentation License:: License for copying this manual. + + +File: grub.info, Node: GNU Free Documentation License, Up: Copying This Manual + +D.1 GNU Free Documentation License +================================== + + Version 1.2, November 2002 + + Copyright (C) 2000,2001,2002 Free Software Foundation, Inc. + 51 Franklin St, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301, USA + + Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies + of this license document, but changing it is not allowed. + + 0. PREAMBLE + + The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other + functional and useful document "free" in the sense of freedom: to + assure everyone the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it, + with or without modifying it, either commercially or + noncommercially. Secondarily, this License preserves for the + author and publisher a way to get credit for their work, while not + being considered responsible for modifications made by others. + + This License is a kind of "copyleft", which means that derivative + works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense. + It complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft + license designed for free software. + + We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for + free software, because free software needs free documentation: a + free program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms + that the software does. But this License is not limited to + software manuals; it can be used for any textual work, regardless + of subject matter or whether it is published as a printed book. We + recommend this License principally for works whose purpose is + instruction or reference. + + 1. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS + + This License applies to any manual or other work, in any medium, + that contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can + be distributed under the terms of this License. Such a notice + grants a world-wide, royalty-free license, unlimited in duration, + to use that work under the conditions stated herein. The + "Document", below, refers to any such manual or work. Any member + of the public is a licensee, and is addressed as "you". You accept + the license if you copy, modify or distribute the work in a way + requiring permission under copyright law. + + A "Modified Version" of the Document means any work containing the + Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with + modifications and/or translated into another language. + + A "Secondary Section" is a named appendix or a front-matter section + of the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the + publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall + subject (or to related matters) and contains nothing that could + fall directly within that overall subject. (Thus, if the Document + is in part a textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not + explain any mathematics.) The relationship could be a matter of + historical connection with the subject or with related matters, or + of legal, commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position + regarding them. + + The "Invariant Sections" are certain Secondary Sections whose + titles are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in the + notice that says that the Document is released under this License. + If a section does not fit the above definition of Secondary then it + is not allowed to be designated as Invariant. The Document may + contain zero Invariant Sections. If the Document does not identify + any Invariant Sections then there are none. + + The "Cover Texts" are certain short passages of text that are + listed, as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice + that says that the Document is released under this License. A + Front-Cover Text may be at most 5 words, and a Back-Cover Text may + be at most 25 words. + + A "Transparent" copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy, + represented in a format whose specification is available to the + general public, that is suitable for revising the document + straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images composed + of pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely + available drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to text + formatters or for automatic translation to a variety of formats + suitable for input to text formatters. A copy made in an otherwise + Transparent file format whose markup, or absence of markup, has + been arranged to thwart or discourage subsequent modification by + readers is not Transparent. An image format is not Transparent if + used for any substantial amount of text. A copy that is not + "Transparent" is called "Opaque". + + Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain + ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format, + SGML or XML using a publicly available DTD, and standard-conforming + simple HTML, PostScript or PDF designed for human modification. + Examples of transparent image formats include PNG, XCF and JPG. + Opaque formats include proprietary formats that can be read and + edited only by proprietary word processors, SGML or XML for which + the DTD and/or processing tools are not generally available, and + the machine-generated HTML, PostScript or PDF produced by some word + processors for output purposes only. + + The "Title Page" means, for a printed book, the title page itself, + plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the + material this License requires to appear in the title page. For + works in formats which do not have any title page as such, "Title + Page" means the text near the most prominent appearance of the + work's title, preceding the beginning of the body of the text. + + A section "Entitled XYZ" means a named subunit of the Document + whose title either is precisely XYZ or contains XYZ in parentheses + following text that translates XYZ in another language. (Here XYZ + stands for a specific section name mentioned below, such as + "Acknowledgements", "Dedications", "Endorsements", or "History".) + To "Preserve the Title" of such a section when you modify the + Document means that it remains a section "Entitled XYZ" according + to this definition. + + The Document may include Warranty Disclaimers next to the notice + which states that this License applies to the Document. These + Warranty Disclaimers are considered to be included by reference in + this License, but only as regards disclaiming warranties: any other + implication that these Warranty Disclaimers may have is void and + has no effect on the meaning of this License. + + 2. VERBATIM COPYING + + You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either + commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the + copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License + applies to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you + add no other conditions whatsoever to those of this License. You + may not use technical measures to obstruct or control the reading + or further copying of the copies you make or distribute. However, + you may accept compensation in exchange for copies. If you + distribute a large enough number of copies you must also follow the + conditions in section 3. + + You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above, + and you may publicly display copies. + + 3. COPYING IN QUANTITY + + If you publish printed copies (or copies in media that commonly + have printed covers) of the Document, numbering more than 100, and + the Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must + enclose the copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all + these Cover Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and + Back-Cover Texts on the back cover. Both covers must also clearly + and legibly identify you as the publisher of these copies. The + front cover must present the full title with all words of the title + equally prominent and visible. You may add other material on the + covers in addition. Copying with changes limited to the covers, as + long as they preserve the title of the Document and satisfy these + conditions, can be treated as verbatim copying in other respects. + + If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit + legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit + reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto + adjacent pages. + + If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document + numbering more than 100, you must either include a machine-readable + Transparent copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with + each Opaque copy a computer-network location from which the general + network-using public has access to download using public-standard + network protocols a complete Transparent copy of the Document, free + of added material. If you use the latter option, you must take + reasonably prudent steps, when you begin distribution of Opaque + copies in quantity, to ensure that this Transparent copy will + remain thus accessible at the stated location until at least one + year after the last time you distribute an Opaque copy (directly or + through your agents or retailers) of that edition to the public. + + It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of + the Document well before redistributing any large number of copies, + to give them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the + Document. + + 4. MODIFICATIONS + + You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document + under the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you + release the Modified Version under precisely this License, with the + Modified Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing + distribution and modification of the Modified Version to whoever + possesses a copy of it. In addition, you must do these things in + the Modified Version: + + A. Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title + distinct from that of the Document, and from those of previous + versions (which should, if there were any, be listed in the + History section of the Document). You may use the same title + as a previous version if the original publisher of that + version gives permission. + + B. List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or + entities responsible for authorship of the modifications in + the Modified Version, together with at least five of the + principal authors of the Document (all of its principal + authors, if it has fewer than five), unless they release you + from this requirement. + + C. State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the + Modified Version, as the publisher. + + D. Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document. + + E. Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications + adjacent to the other copyright notices. + + F. Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license + notice giving the public permission to use the Modified + Version under the terms of this License, in the form shown in + the Addendum below. + + G. Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant + Sections and required Cover Texts given in the Document's + license notice. + + H. Include an unaltered copy of this License. + + I. Preserve the section Entitled "History", Preserve its Title, + and add to it an item stating at least the title, year, new + authors, and publisher of the Modified Version as given on the + Title Page. If there is no section Entitled "History" in the + Document, create one stating the title, year, authors, and + publisher of the Document as given on its Title Page, then add + an item describing the Modified Version as stated in the + previous sentence. + + J. Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document + for public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and + likewise the network locations given in the Document for + previous versions it was based on. These may be placed in the + "History" section. You may omit a network location for a work + that was published at least four years before the Document + itself, or if the original publisher of the version it refers + to gives permission. + + K. For any section Entitled "Acknowledgements" or "Dedications", + Preserve the Title of the section, and preserve in the section + all the substance and tone of each of the contributor + acknowledgements and/or dedications given therein. + + L. Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document, unaltered + in their text and in their titles. Section numbers or the + equivalent are not considered part of the section titles. + + M. Delete any section Entitled "Endorsements". Such a section + may not be included in the Modified Version. + + N. Do not retitle any existing section to be Entitled + "Endorsements" or to conflict in title with any Invariant + Section. + + O. Preserve any Warranty Disclaimers. + + If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or + appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no + material copied from the Document, you may at your option designate + some or all of these sections as invariant. To do this, add their + titles to the list of Invariant Sections in the Modified Version's + license notice. These titles must be distinct from any other + section titles. + + You may add a section Entitled "Endorsements", provided it contains + nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various + parties--for example, statements of peer review or that the text + has been approved by an organization as the authoritative + definition of a standard. + + You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text, + and a passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of + the list of Cover Texts in the Modified Version. Only one passage + of Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or + through arrangements made by) any one entity. If the Document + already includes a cover text for the same cover, previously added + by you or by arrangement made by the same entity you are acting on + behalf of, you may not add another; but you may replace the old + one, on explicit permission from the previous publisher that added + the old one. + + The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this + License give permission to use their names for publicity for or to + assert or imply endorsement of any Modified Version. + + 5. COMBINING DOCUMENTS + + You may combine the Document with other documents released under + this License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for + modified versions, provided that you include in the combination all + of the Invariant Sections of all of the original documents, + unmodified, and list them all as Invariant Sections of your + combined work in its license notice, and that you preserve all + their Warranty Disclaimers. + + The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and + multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single + copy. If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name + but different contents, make the title of each such section unique + by adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the + original author or publisher of that section if known, or else a + unique number. Make the same adjustment to the section titles in + the list of Invariant Sections in the license notice of the + combined work. + + In the combination, you must combine any sections Entitled + "History" in the various original documents, forming one section + Entitled "History"; likewise combine any sections Entitled + "Acknowledgements", and any sections Entitled "Dedications". You + must delete all sections Entitled "Endorsements." + + 6. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS + + You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other + documents released under this License, and replace the individual + copies of this License in the various documents with a single copy + that is included in the collection, provided that you follow the + rules of this License for verbatim copying of each of the documents + in all other respects. + + You may extract a single document from such a collection, and + distribute it individually under this License, provided you insert + a copy of this License into the extracted document, and follow this + License in all other respects regarding verbatim copying of that + document. + + 7. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS + + A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other + separate and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a + storage or distribution medium, is called an "aggregate" if the + copyright resulting from the compilation is not used to limit the + legal rights of the compilation's users beyond what the individual + works permit. When the Document is included in an aggregate, this + License does not apply to the other works in the aggregate which + are not themselves derivative works of the Document. + + If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these + copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one half + of the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed + on covers that bracket the Document within the aggregate, or the + electronic equivalent of covers if the Document is in electronic + form. Otherwise they must appear on printed covers that bracket + the whole aggregate. + + 8. TRANSLATION + + Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may + distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section + 4. Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special + permission from their copyright holders, but you may include + translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the + original versions of these Invariant Sections. You may include a + translation of this License, and all the license notices in the + Document, and any Warranty Disclaimers, provided that you also + include the original English version of this License and the + original versions of those notices and disclaimers. In case of a + disagreement between the translation and the original version of + this License or a notice or disclaimer, the original version will + prevail. + + If a section in the Document is Entitled "Acknowledgements", + "Dedications", or "History", the requirement (section 4) to + Preserve its Title (section 1) will typically require changing the + actual title. + + 9. TERMINATION + + You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document + except as expressly provided for under this License. Any other + attempt to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Document is + void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this + License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, + from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated + so long as such parties remain in full compliance. + + 10. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE + + The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions of + the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time. Such new + versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may + differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. See + <http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/>. + + Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version + number. If the Document specifies that a particular numbered + version of this License "or any later version" applies to it, you + have the option of following the terms and conditions either of + that specified version or of any later version that has been + published (not as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation. If the + Document does not specify a version number of this License, you may + choose any version ever published (not as a draft) by the Free + Software Foundation. + +D.1.1 ADDENDUM: How to use this License for your documents +---------------------------------------------------------- + +To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of +the License in the document and put the following copyright and license +notices just after the title page: + + Copyright (C) YEAR YOUR NAME. + Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document + under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 + or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation; + with no Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover + Texts.

It is responsible for loading and transferring +control to an operating system @dfn{kernel} software (such as Linux or +GNU Mach). The kernel, in turn, initializes the rest of the operating +system (e.g. a GNU system). + +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@footnote{@dfn{chain-load} is the mechanism for loading +unsupported operating systems by loading another boot loader. It is +typically used for loading DOS or Windows.}. 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. Thus you can load the kernel +just by specifying its file name and the drive and partition where the +kernel resides. + +When booting with GRUB, you can use either a command-line interface +(@pxref{Command-line interface}), or a menu interface (@pxref{Menu +interface}). Using the command-line interface, you type the drive +specification and file name of the kernel manually. In the menu +interface, you just select an OS using the arrow keys. The menu is +based on a configuration file which you prepare beforehand +(@pxref{Configuration}). While in the menu, you can switch to the +command-line mode, and vice-versa. You can even edit menu entries +before using them. + +In the following chapters, you will learn how to specify a drive, a +partition, and a file name (@pxref{Naming convention}) to GRUB, how to +install GRUB on your drive (@pxref{Installation}), and how to boot your +OSes (@pxref{Booting}), step by step. + + +@node History +@section History of GRUB + +GRUB originated in 1995 when Erich Boleyn was trying to boot the GNU +Hurd with the University of Utah's Mach 4 microkernel (now known as GNU +Mach). Erich and Brian Ford designed the Multiboot Specification +(@pxref{Top, Multiboot Specification, Motivation, multiboot, The Multiboot +Specification}), because they were determined not to add to the large +number of mutually-incompatible PC boot methods. + +Erich then began modifying the FreeBSD boot loader so that it would +understand Multiboot. He soon realized that it would be a lot easier +to write his own boot loader from scratch than to keep working on the +FreeBSD boot loader, and so GRUB was born. + +Erich added many features to GRUB, but other priorities prevented him +from keeping up with the demands of its quickly-expanding user base. In +1999, Gordon Matzigkeit and Yoshinori K. Okuji adopted GRUB as an +official GNU package, and opened its development by making the latest +sources available via anonymous CVS. @xref{Obtaining and Building +GRUB}, for more information. + +Over the next few years, GRUB was extended to meet many needs, but it +quickly became clear that its design was not keeping up with the extensions +being made to it, and we reached the point where it was very difficult to +make any further changes without breaking existing features. Around 2002, +Yoshinori K. Okuji started work on PUPA (Preliminary Universal Programming +Architecture for GNU GRUB), aiming to rewrite the core of GRUB to make it +cleaner, safer, more robust, and more powerful. PUPA was eventually renamed +to GRUB 2, and the original version of GRUB was renamed to GRUB Legacy. +Small amounts of maintenance continued to be done on GRUB Legacy, but the +last release (0.97) was made in 2005 and at the time of writing it seems +unlikely that there will be another. + +By around 2007, GNU/Linux distributions started to use GRUB 2 to limited +extents, and by the end of 2009 multiple major distributions were installing +it by default. + + +@node Changes from GRUB Legacy +@section Differences from previous versions + +GRUB 2 is a rewrite of GRUB (@pxref{History}), although it shares many +characteristics with the previous version, now known as GRUB Legacy. Users +of GRUB Legacy may need some guidance to find their way around this new +version. + +@itemize @bullet +@item +The configuration file has a new name (@file{grub.cfg} rather than +@file{menu.lst} or @file{grub.conf}), new syntax (@pxref{Configuration}) and +many new commands (@pxref{Commands}). Configuration cannot be copied over +directly, although most GRUB Legacy users should not find the syntax too +surprising. + +@item +@file{grub.cfg} is typically automatically generated by +@command{grub-mkconfig} (@pxref{Simple configuration}). This makes it +easier to handle versioned kernel upgrades. + +@item +Partition numbers in GRUB device names now start at 1, not 0 (@pxref{Naming +convention}). + +@item +The configuration file is now written in something closer to a full +scripting language: variables, conditionals, and loops are available. + +@item +A small amount of persistent storage is available across reboots, using the +@command{save_env} and @command{load_env} commands in GRUB and the +@command{grub-editenv} utility. This is not available in all configurations +(@pxref{Environment block}). + +@item +GRUB 2 has more reliable ways to find its own files and those of target +kernels on multiple-disk systems, and has commands (@pxref{search}) to find +devices using file system labels or Universally Unique Identifiers (UUIDs). + +@item +GRUB 2 is available for several other types of system in addition to the PC +BIOS systems supported by GRUB Legacy: PC EFI, PC coreboot, PowerPC, SPARC, +and MIPS Lemote Yeeloong are all supported. + +@item +Many more file systems are supported, including but not limited to ext4, +HFS+, and NTFS. + +@item +GRUB 2 can read files directly from LVM and RAID devices. + +@item +A graphical terminal and a graphical menu system are available. + +@item +GRUB 2's interface can be translated, including menu entry names. + +@item +The image files (@pxref{Images}) that make up GRUB have been reorganised; +Stage 1, Stage 1.5, and Stage 2 are no more. + +@item +GRUB 2 puts many facilities in dynamically loaded modules, allowing the core +image to be smaller, and allowing the core image to be built in more +flexible ways. +@end itemize + + +@node Features +@section GRUB features + +The primary requirement for GRUB is that it be compliant with the +@dfn{Multiboot Specification}, which is described in @ref{Top, Multiboot +Specification, Motivation, multiboot, The Multiboot Specification}. + +The other goals, listed in approximate order of importance, are: + +@itemize @bullet{} +@item +Basic functions must be straightforward for end-users. + +@item +Rich functionality to support kernel experts and designers. + +@item +Backward compatibility for booting FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, and +Linux. Proprietary kernels (such as DOS, Windows NT, and OS/2) are +supported via a chain-loading function. +@end itemize + +Except for specific compatibility modes (chain-loading and the Linux +@dfn{piggyback} format), all kernels will be started in much the same +state as in the Multiboot Specification. Only kernels loaded at 1 megabyte +or above are presently supported. Any attempt to load below that +boundary will simply result in immediate failure and an error message +reporting the problem. + +In addition to the requirements above, GRUB has the following features +(note that the Multiboot Specification doesn't require all the features +that GRUB supports): + +@table @asis +@item Recognize multiple executable formats +Support many of the @dfn{a.out} variants plus @dfn{ELF}. Symbol +tables are also loaded. + +@item Support non-Multiboot kernels +Support many of the various free 32-bit kernels that lack Multiboot +compliance (primarily FreeBSD, NetBSD@footnote{The NetBSD/i386 kernel +is Multiboot-compliant, but lacks support for Multiboot modules.}, +OpenBSD, and Linux). Chain-loading of other boot loaders is also +supported. + +@item Load multiples modules +Fully support the Multiboot feature of loading multiple modules. + +@item Load a configuration file +Support a human-readable text configuration file with preset boot +commands. You can also load another configuration file dynamically and +embed a preset configuration file in a GRUB image file. The list of +commands (@pxref{Commands}) are a superset of those supported on the +command-line. An example configuration file is provided in +@ref{Configuration}. + +@item Provide a menu interface +A menu interface listing preset boot commands, with a programmable +timeout, is available. There is no fixed limit on the number of boot +entries, and the current implementation has space for several hundred. + +@item Have a flexible command-line interface +A fairly flexible command-line interface, accessible from the menu, +is available to edit any preset commands, or write a new boot command +set from scratch. If no configuration file is present, GRUB drops to +the command-line. + +The list of commands (@pxref{Commands}) are a subset of those supported +for configuration files. Editing commands closely resembles the Bash +command-line (@pxref{Command Line Editing, Bash, Command Line Editing, +features, Bash Features}), with @key{TAB}-completion of commands, +devices, partitions, and files in a directory depending on context. + +@item Support multiple filesystem types +Support multiple filesystem types transparently, plus a useful explicit +blocklist notation. The currently supported filesystem types are @dfn{Amiga +Fast FileSystem (AFFS)}, @dfn{AtheOS fs}, @dfn{BeFS}, +@dfn{BtrFS} (including raid0, raid1, raid10, gzip and lzo), +@dfn{cpio} (little- and big-endian bin, odc and newc variants), +@dfn{Linux ext2/ext3/ext4}, @dfn{DOS FAT12/FAT16/FAT32}, +@dfn{exFAT}, @dfn{F2FS}, @dfn{HFS}, @dfn{HFS+}, +@dfn{ISO9660} (including Joliet, Rock-ridge and multi-chunk files), +@dfn{JFS}, @dfn{Minix fs} (versions 1, 2 and 3), @dfn{nilfs2}, +@dfn{NTFS} (including compression), @dfn{ReiserFS}, @dfn{ROMFS}, +@dfn{Amiga Smart FileSystem (SFS)}, @dfn{Squash4}, @dfn{tar}, @dfn{UDF}, +@dfn{BSD UFS/UFS2}, @dfn{XFS}, and @dfn{ZFS} (including lzjb, gzip, +zle, mirror, stripe, raidz1/2/3 and encryption in AES-CCM and AES-GCM). +@xref{Filesystem}, for more information. + +@item Support automatic decompression +Can decompress files which were compressed by @command{gzip} or +@command{xz}@footnote{Only CRC32 data integrity check is supported (xz default +is CRC64 so one should use --check=crc32 option). LZMA BCJ filters are +supported.}. This function is both automatic and transparent to the user +(i.e. all functions operate upon the uncompressed contents of the specified +files). This greatly reduces a file size and loading time, a +particularly great benefit for floppies.@footnote{There are a few +pathological cases where loading a very badly organized ELF kernel might +take longer, but in practice this never happen.} + +It is conceivable that some kernel modules should be loaded in a +compressed state, so a different module-loading command can be specified +to avoid uncompressing the modules. + +@item Access data on any installed device +Support reading data from any or all floppies or hard disk(s) recognized +by the BIOS, independent of the setting of the root device. + +@item Be independent of drive geometry translations +Unlike many other boot loaders, GRUB makes the particular drive +translation irrelevant. A drive installed and running with one +translation may be converted to another translation without any adverse +effects or changes in GRUB's configuration. + +@item Detect all installed @sc{ram} +GRUB can generally find all the installed @sc{ram} on a PC-compatible +machine. It uses an advanced BIOS query technique for finding all +memory regions. As described on the Multiboot Specification (@pxref{Top, +Multiboot Specification, Motivation, multiboot, The Multiboot +Specification}), not all kernels make use of this information, but GRUB +provides it for those who do. + +@item Support Logical Block Address mode +In traditional disk calls (called @dfn{CHS mode}), there is a geometry +translation problem, that is, the BIOS cannot access over 1024 +cylinders, so the accessible space is limited to at least 508 MB and to +at most 8GB. GRUB can't universally solve this problem, as there is no +standard interface used in all machines. However, several newer machines +have the new interface, Logical Block Address (@dfn{LBA}) mode. GRUB +automatically detects if LBA mode is available and uses it if +available. In LBA mode, GRUB can access the entire disk. + +@item Support network booting +GRUB is basically a disk-based boot loader but also has network +support. You can load OS images from a network by using the @dfn{TFTP} +protocol. + +@item Support remote terminals +To support computers with no console, GRUB provides remote terminal +support, so that you can control GRUB from a remote host. Only serial +terminal support is implemented at the moment. +@end table + + +@node Role of a boot loader +@section The role of a boot loader + +The following is a quotation from Gordon Matzigkeit, a GRUB fanatic: + +@quotation +Some people like to acknowledge both the operating system and kernel when +they talk about their computers, so they might say they use +``GNU/Linux'' or ``GNU/Hurd''. Other people seem to think that the +kernel is the most important part of the system, so they like to call +their GNU operating systems ``Linux systems.'' + +I, personally, believe that this is a grave injustice, because the +@emph{boot loader} is the most important software of all. I used to +refer to the above systems as either ``LILO''@footnote{The LInux LOader, +a boot loader that everybody uses, but nobody likes.} or ``GRUB'' +systems. + +Unfortunately, nobody ever understood what I was talking about; now I +just use the word ``GNU'' as a pseudonym for GRUB. + +So, if you ever hear people talking about their alleged ``GNU'' systems, +remember that they are actually paying homage to the best boot loader +around@dots{} GRUB! +@end quotation + +We, the GRUB maintainers, do not (usually) encourage Gordon's level of +fanaticism, but it helps to remember that boot loaders deserve +recognition. We hope that you enjoy using GNU GRUB as much as we did +writing it. + + +@node Naming convention +@chapter Naming convention + +The device syntax used in GRUB is a wee bit different from what you may +have seen before in your operating system(s), and you need to know it so +that you can specify a drive/partition. + +Look at the following examples and explanations: + +@example +(fd0) +@end example + +First of all, GRUB requires that the device name be enclosed with +@samp{(} and @samp{)}. The @samp{fd} part means that it is a floppy +disk. The number @samp{0} is the drive number, which is counted from +@emph{zero}. This expression means that GRUB will use the whole floppy +disk. + +@example +(hd0,msdos2) +@end example + +Here, @samp{hd} means it is a hard disk drive. The first integer +@samp{0} indicates the drive number, that is, the first hard disk, +the string @samp{msdos} indicates the partition scheme, while +the second integer, @samp{2}, indicates the partition number (or the +@sc{pc} slice number in the BSD terminology). The partition numbers are +counted from @emph{one}, not from zero (as was the case in previous +versions of GRUB). This expression means the second partition of the +first hard disk drive. In this case, GRUB uses one partition of the +disk, instead of the whole disk. + +@example +(hd0,msdos5) +@end example + +This specifies the first @dfn{extended partition} of the first hard disk +drive. Note that the partition numbers for extended partitions are +counted from @samp{5}, regardless of the actual number of primary +partitions on your hard disk. + +@example +(hd1,msdos1,bsd1) +@end example + +This means the BSD @samp{a} partition on first @sc{pc} slice number +of the second hard disk. + +Of course, to actually access the disks or partitions with GRUB, you +need to use the device specification in a command, like @samp{set +root=(fd0)} or @samp{parttool (hd0,msdos3) hidden-}. To help you find out +which number specifies a partition you want, the GRUB command-line +(@pxref{Command-line interface}) options have argument +completion. This means that, for example, you only need to type + +@example +set root=( +@end example + +followed by a @key{TAB}, and GRUB will display the list of drives, +partitions, or file names. So it should be quite easy to determine the +name of your target partition, even with minimal knowledge of the +syntax. + +Note that GRUB does @emph{not} distinguish IDE from SCSI - it simply +counts the drive numbers from zero, regardless of their type. Normally, +any IDE drive number is less than any SCSI drive number, although that +is not true if you change the boot sequence by swapping IDE and SCSI +drives in your BIOS. + +Now the question is, how to specify a file? Again, consider an +example: + +@example +(hd0,msdos1)/vmlinuz +@end example + +This specifies the file named @samp{vmlinuz}, found on the first +partition of the first hard disk drive. Note that the argument +completion works with file names, too. + +That was easy, admit it. Now read the next chapter, to find out how to +actually install GRUB on your drive. + +@node OS-specific notes about grub tools +@chapter OS-specific notes about grub tools + +On OS which have device nodes similar to Unix-like OS GRUB tools use the +OS name. E.g. for GNU/Linux: + +@example +# @kbd{grub-install /dev/sda} +@end example + +On AROS we use another syntax. For volumes: + +@example +//:<volume name> +@end example + +E.g. + +@example +//:DH0 +@end example + +For disks we use syntax: +@example +//:<driver name>/unit/flags +@end example + +E.g. + +@example +# @kbd{grub-install //:ata.device/0/0} +@end example + +On Windows we use UNC path. For volumes it's typically + +@example +\\?\Volume@{<GUID>@} +\\?\<drive letter>: +@end example + +E.g. + +@example +\\?\Volume@{17f34d50-cf64-4b02-800e-51d79c3aa2ff@} +\\?\C: +@end example + + +For disks it's + +@example +\\?\PhysicalDrive<number> +@end example + +E.g. + +@example +# @kbd{grub-install \\?\PhysicalDrive0} +@end example + +Beware that you may need to further escape the backslashes depending on your +shell. + +When compiled with cygwin support then cygwin drive names are automatically +when needed. E.g. + +@example +# @kbd{grub-install /dev/sda} +@end example + +@node Installation +@chapter Installation + +In order to install GRUB as your boot loader, you need to first +install the GRUB system and utilities under your UNIX-like operating +system (@pxref{Obtaining and Building GRUB}). You can do this either +from the source tarball, or as a package for your OS. + +After you have done that, you need to install the boot loader on a +drive (floppy or hard disk) by using the utility +@command{grub-install} (@pxref{Invoking grub-install}) on a UNIX-like OS. + +GRUB comes with boot images, which are normally put in the directory +@file{/usr/lib/grub/<cpu>-<platform>} (for BIOS-based machines +@file{/usr/lib/grub/i386-pc}). Hereafter, the directory where GRUB images are +initially placed (normally @file{/usr/lib/grub/<cpu>-<platform>}) will be +called the @dfn{image directory}, and the directory where the boot +loader needs to find them (usually @file{/boot}) will be called +the @dfn{boot directory}. + +@menu +* Installing GRUB using grub-install:: +* Making a GRUB bootable CD-ROM:: +* Device map:: +* BIOS installation:: +@end menu + + +@node Installing GRUB using grub-install +@section Installing GRUB using grub-install + +For information on where GRUB should be installed on PC BIOS platforms, +@pxref{BIOS installation}. + +In order to install GRUB under a UNIX-like OS (such +as @sc{gnu}), invoke the program @command{grub-install} (@pxref{Invoking +grub-install}) as the superuser (@dfn{root}). + +The usage is basically very simple. You only need to specify one +argument to the program, namely, where to install the boot loader. The +argument has to be either a device file (like @samp{/dev/hda}). +For example, under Linux the following will install GRUB into the MBR +of the first IDE disk: + +@example +# @kbd{grub-install /dev/sda} +@end example + +Likewise, under GNU/Hurd, this has the same effect: + +@example +# @kbd{grub-install /dev/hd0} +@end example + +But all the above examples assume that GRUB should put images under +the @file{/boot} directory. If you want GRUB to put images under a directory +other than @file{/boot}, you need to specify the option +@option{--boot-directory}. The typical usage is that you create a GRUB +boot floppy with a filesystem. Here is an example: + +@example +@group +# @kbd{mke2fs /dev/fd0} +# @kbd{mount -t ext2 /dev/fd0 /mnt} +# @kbd{mkdir /mnt/boot} +# @kbd{grub-install --boot-directory=/mnt/boot /dev/fd0} +# @kbd{umount /mnt} +@end group +@end example + +Some BIOSes have a bug of exposing the first partition of a USB drive as a +floppy instead of exposing the USB drive as a hard disk (they call it +``USB-FDD'' boot). In such cases, you need to install like this: + +@example +# @kbd{losetup /dev/loop0 /dev/sdb1} +# @kbd{mount /dev/loop0 /mnt/usb} +# @kbd{grub-install --boot-directory=/mnt/usb/bugbios --force --allow-floppy /dev/loop0} +@end example + +This install doesn't conflict with standard install as long as they are in +separate directories. + +On EFI systems for fixed disk install you have to mount EFI System Partition. +If you mount it at @file{/boot/efi} then you don't need any special arguments: + +@example +# @kbd{grub-install} +@end example + +Otherwise you need to specify where your EFI System partition is mounted: + +@example +# @kbd{grub-install --efi-directory=/mnt/efi} +@end example + +For removable installs you have to use @option{--removable} and specify both +@option{--boot-directory} and @option{--efi-directory}: + +@example +# @kbd{grub-install --efi-directory=/mnt/usb --boot-directory=/mnt/usb/boot --removable} +@end example + +@node Making a GRUB bootable CD-ROM +@section Making a GRUB bootable CD-ROM + +GRUB supports the @dfn{no emulation mode} in the El Torito +specification@footnote{El Torito is a specification for bootable CD +using BIOS functions.}. This means that you can use the whole CD-ROM +from GRUB and you don't have to make a floppy or hard disk image file, +which can cause compatibility problems. + +For booting from a CD-ROM, GRUB uses a special image called +@file{cdboot.img}, which is concatenated with @file{core.img}. The +@file{core.img} used for this should be built with at least the +@samp{iso9660} and @samp{biosdisk} modules. Your bootable CD-ROM will +usually also need to include a configuration file @file{grub.cfg} and some +other GRUB modules. + +To make a simple generic GRUB rescue CD, you can use the +@command{grub-mkrescue} program (@pxref{Invoking grub-mkrescue}): + +@example +$ @kbd{grub-mkrescue -o grub.iso} +@end example + +You will often need to include other files in your image. To do this, first +make a top directory for the bootable image, say, @samp{iso}: + +@example +$ @kbd{mkdir iso} +@end example + +Make a directory for GRUB: + +@example +$ @kbd{mkdir -p iso/boot/grub} +@end example + +If desired, make the config file @file{grub.cfg} under @file{iso/boot/grub} +(@pxref{Configuration}), and copy any files and directories for the disc to the +directory @file{iso/}. + +Finally, make the image: + +@example +$ @kbd{grub-mkrescue -o grub.iso iso} +@end example + +This produces a file named @file{grub.iso}, which then can be burned +into a CD (or a DVD), or written to a USB mass storage device. + +The root device will be set up appropriately on entering your +@file{grub.cfg} configuration file, so you can refer to file names on the CD +without needing to use an explicit device name. This makes it easier to +produce rescue images that will work on both optical drives and USB mass +storage devices. + + +@node Device map +@section The map between BIOS drives and OS devices + +If the device map file exists, the GRUB utilities (@command{grub-probe}, +etc.) read it to map BIOS drives to OS devices. This file consists of lines +like this: + +@example +(@var{device}) @var{file} +@end example + +@var{device} is a drive specified in the GRUB syntax (@pxref{Device +syntax}), and @var{file} is an OS file, which is normally a device file. + +Historically, the device map file was used because GRUB device names had to +be used in the configuration file, and they were derived from BIOS drive +numbers. The map between BIOS drives and OS devices cannot always be +guessed correctly: for example, GRUB will get the order wrong if you +exchange the boot sequence between IDE and SCSI in your BIOS. + +Unfortunately, even OS device names are not always stable. Modern versions +of the Linux kernel may probe drives in a different order from boot to boot, +and the prefix (@file{/dev/hd*} versus @file{/dev/sd*}) may change depending +on the driver subsystem in use. As a result, the device map file required +frequent editing on some systems. + +GRUB avoids this problem nowadays by using UUIDs or file system labels when +generating @file{grub.cfg}, and we advise that you do the same for any +custom menu entries you write. If the device map file does not exist, then +the GRUB utilities will assume a temporary device map on the fly. This is +often good enough, particularly in the common case of single-disk systems. + +However, the device map file is not entirely obsolete yet, and it is +used for overriding when current environment is different from the one on boot. +Most common case is if you use a partition or logical volume as a disk for +virtual machine. You can put any comments in the file if needed, +as the GRUB utilities assume that a line is just a comment if +the first character is @samp{#}. + + +@node BIOS installation +@section BIOS installation + +@heading MBR + +The partition table format traditionally used on PC BIOS platforms is called +the Master Boot Record (MBR) format; this is the format that allows up to +four primary partitions and additional logical partitions. With this +partition table format, there are two ways to install GRUB: it can be +embedded in the area between the MBR and the first partition (called by +various names, such as the "boot track", "MBR gap", or "embedding area", and +which is usually at least 1000 KiB), or the core image can be installed in a +file system and a list of the blocks that make it up can be stored in the +first sector of that partition. + +Modern tools usually leave MBR gap of at least 1023 KiB. This amount is +sufficient to cover most configurations. Hence this value is recommended +by the GRUB team. + +Historically many tools left only 31 KiB of space. This is not enough to +parse reliably difficult structures like Btrfs, ZFS, RAID or LVM, or to +use difficult disk access methods like ahci. Hence GRUB will warn if attempted +to install into small MBR gap except in a small number of configurations +that were grandfathered.

Installing to a filesystem means that GRUB is +vulnerable to its blocks being moved around by filesystem features such as +tail packing, or even by aggressive fsck implementations, so this approach +is quite fragile; and this approach can only be used if the @file{/boot} +filesystem is on the same disk that the BIOS boots from, so that GRUB does +not have to rely on guessing BIOS drive numbers. + +The GRUB development team generally recommends embedding GRUB before the +first partition, unless you have special requirements. You must ensure that +the first partition starts at least 1000 KiB (2000 sectors) from the start of +the disk; on modern disks, it is often a performance advantage to align +partitions on larger boundaries anyway, so the first partition might start 1 +MiB from the start of the disk. + +@heading GPT + +Some newer systems use the GUID Partition Table (GPT) format. This was +specified as part of the Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI), but it can +also be used on BIOS platforms if system software supports it; for example, +GRUB and GNU/Linux can be used in this configuration. With this format, it +is possible to reserve a whole partition for GRUB, called the BIOS Boot +Partition. GRUB can then be embedded into that partition without the risk +of being overwritten by other software and without being contained in a +filesystem which might move its blocks around. + +When creating a BIOS Boot Partition on a GPT system, you should make sure +that it is at least 31 KiB in size. (GPT-formatted disks are not usually +particularly small, so we recommend that you make it larger than the bare +minimum, such as 1 MiB, to allow plenty of room for growth.) You must also +make sure that it has the proper partition type. Using GNU Parted, you can +set this using a command such as the following: + +@example +# @kbd{parted /dev/@var{disk} set @var{partition-number} bios_grub on} +@end example + +If you are using gdisk, set the partition type to @samp{0xEF02}. With +partitioning programs that require setting the GUID directly, it should be +@samp{21686148-6449-6e6f-744e656564454649}. + +@strong{Caution:} Be very careful which partition you select! When GRUB +finds a BIOS Boot Partition during installation, it will automatically +overwrite part of it.

One of the two is to load an +operating system directly, and the other is to chain-load another boot +loader which then will load an operating system actually. Generally +speaking, the former is more desirable, because you don't need to +install or maintain other boot loaders and GRUB is flexible enough to +load an operating system from an arbitrary disk/partition. However, +the latter is sometimes required, since GRUB doesn't support all the +existing operating systems natively. + +@menu +* Loading an operating system directly:: +* Chain-loading:: +@end menu + + +@node Loading an operating system directly +@subsection How to boot an OS directly with GRUB + +Multiboot (@pxref{Top, Multiboot Specification, Motivation, multiboot, +The Multiboot Specification}) is the native format supported by GRUB. +For the sake of convenience, there is also support for Linux, FreeBSD, +NetBSD and OpenBSD. If you want to boot other operating systems, you +will have to chain-load them (@pxref{Chain-loading}). + +FIXME: this section is incomplete. + +@enumerate +@item +Run the command @command{boot} (@pxref{boot}). +@end enumerate + +However, DOS and Windows have some deficiencies, so you might have to +use more complicated instructions. @xref{DOS/Windows}, for more +information. + + +@node Chain-loading +@subsection Chain-loading an OS + +Operating systems that do not support Multiboot and do not have specific +support in GRUB (specific support is available for Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD +and OpenBSD) must be chain-loaded, which involves loading another boot +loader and jumping to it in real mode. + +The @command{chainloader} command (@pxref{chainloader}) is used to set this +up. It is normally also necessary to load some GRUB modules and set the +appropriate root device. Putting this together, we get something like this, +for a Windows system on the first partition of the first hard disk: + +@verbatim +menuentry "Windows" { + insmod chain + insmod ntfs + set root=(hd0,1) + chainloader +1 +} +@end verbatim +@c FIXME: document UUIDs. + +On systems with multiple hard disks, an additional workaround may be +required. @xref{DOS/Windows}. + +Chain-loading is only supported on PC BIOS and EFI platforms. + +@node Loopback booting +@section Loopback booting +GRUB is able to read from an image (be it one of CD or HDD) stored on +any of its accessible storages (refer to @pxref{loopback} command). +However the OS itself should be able to find its root. This usually +involves running a userspace program running before the real root +is discovered. This is achieved by GRUB loading a specially made +small image and passing it as ramdisk to the kernel. This is achieved +by commands @command{kfreebsd_module}, @command{knetbsd_module_elf}, +@command{kopenbsd_ramdisk}, @command{initrd} (@pxref{initrd}), +@command{initrd16} (@pxref{initrd}), @command{multiboot_module}, +@command{multiboot2_module} or @command{xnu_ramdisk} +depending on the loader. Note that for knetbsd the image must be put +inside miniroot.kmod and the whole miniroot.kmod has to be loaded. In +kopenbsd payload this is disabled by default. Aditionally behaviour of +initial ramdisk depends on command line options. Several distributors provide +the image for this purpose or it's integrated in their standard ramdisk and +activated by special option. Consult your kernel and distribution manual for +more details. Other loaders like appleloader, chainloader (BIOS, EFI, coreboot), +freedos, ntldr and plan9 provide no possibility of loading initial ramdisk and +as far as author is aware the payloads in question don't support either initial +ramdisk or discovering loopback boot in other way and as such not bootable this +way. Please consider alternative boot methods like copying all files +from the image to actual partition. Consult your OS documentation for +more details + +@node LVM cache booting +@section Booting from LVM cache logical volume + +The LVM cache logical volume is the logical volume consisting of the original +and the cache pool logical volume. The original is usually on a larger and +slower storage device while the cache pool is on a smaller and faster one. The +performance of the original volume can be improved by storing the frequently +used data on the cache pool to utilize the greater performance of faster +device. + +GRUB boots from LVM cache logical volume merely by reading it's original +logical volume so that dirty data in cache pool volume is disregarded. This is +not a problem for "writethrough" cache mode as it ensures that any data written +will be stored both on the cache and the origin LV. For the other cache mode +"writeback", which delays writing from the cache pool back to the origin LV to +boost performance, GRUB may fail to boot in the wake of accidental power outage +due to it's inability to assemble the cache device for reading the required +dirty data left behind. The situation will be improved after adding full +support to the LVM cache logical volume in the future. + +@node OS-specific notes +@section Some caveats on OS-specific issues + +Here, we describe some caveats on several operating systems. + +@menu +* GNU/Hurd:: +* GNU/Linux:: +* NetBSD:: +* DOS/Windows:: +@end menu + + +@node GNU/Hurd +@subsection GNU/Hurd + +Since GNU/Hurd is Multiboot-compliant, it is easy to boot it; there is +nothing special about it.

A typical example is the module for the +root file system: + +@example +grub> @kbd{knetbsd_module_elf /stand/amd64/6.0/modules/ffs/ffs.kmod} +@end example + +@item +Finally, run the command @command{boot} (@pxref{boot}). +@end enumerate + + +@node DOS/Windows +@subsection DOS/Windows + +GRUB cannot boot DOS or Windows directly, so you must chain-load them +(@pxref{Chain-loading}). However, their boot loaders have some critical +deficiencies, so it may not work to just chain-load them. To overcome +the problems, GRUB provides you with two helper functions. + +If you have installed DOS (or Windows) on a non-first hard disk, you +have to use the disk swapping technique, because that OS cannot boot +from any disks but the first one. The workaround used in GRUB is the +command @command{drivemap} (@pxref{drivemap}), like this: + +@example +drivemap -s (hd0) (hd1) +@end example + +This performs a @dfn{virtual} swap between your first and second hard +drive. + +@strong{Caution:} This is effective only if DOS (or Windows) uses BIOS +to access the swapped disks. If that OS uses a special driver for the +disks, this probably won't work. + +Another problem arises if you installed more than one set of DOS/Windows +onto one disk, because they could be confused if there are more than one +primary partitions for DOS/Windows. Certainly you should avoid doing +this, but there is a solution if you do want to do so. Use the partition +hiding/unhiding technique. + +If GRUB @dfn{hides} a DOS (or Windows) partition (@pxref{parttool}), DOS (or +Windows) will ignore the partition. If GRUB @dfn{unhides} a DOS (or Windows) +partition, DOS (or Windows) will detect the partition. Thus, if you have +installed DOS (or Windows) on the first and the second partition of the +first hard disk, and you want to boot the copy on the first partition, do +the following: + +@example +@group +parttool (hd0,1) hidden- +parttool (hd0,2) hidden+ +set root=(hd0,1) +chainloader +1 +parttool @verb{'${root}'} boot+ +boot +@end group +@end example + + +@node Configuration +@chapter Writing your own configuration file + +GRUB is configured using @file{grub.cfg}, usually located under +@file{/boot/grub}.

This +algorithm selects the identification method of the root file system by +considering three factors. The first is if an initrd for the target operating +system is also present. The second is @samp{GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID} and if set +to @samp{true}, prevents @command{grub-mkconfig} from identifying the root file +system by its UUID. The third is @samp{GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_PARTUUID} and if set +to @samp{true}, prevents @command{grub-mkconfig} from identifying the root file +system via the UUID of its enclosing partition. If the variables are assigned +any other value, that value is considered equivalent to @samp{false}. The +variables are also considered to be set to @samp{false} if they are not set. + +When booting, the Linux kernel will delegate the task of mounting the root +filesystem to the initrd. Most initrd images determine the root file system by +checking the Linux kernel's command-line for the @samp{root} key and use its +value as the identification method of the root file system. To improve the +reliability of booting, most initrd images also allow the root file system to be +identified by its UUID. Because of this behavior, the @command{grub-mkconfig} +command will set @samp{root} to @samp{root=UUID=...} to provide the initrd with +the filesystem UUID of the root file system. + +If no initrd is detected or @samp{GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID} is set to @samp{true} +then @command{grub-command} will identify the root filesystem by setting the +kernel command-line variable @samp{root} to @samp{root=PARTUUID=...} unless +@samp{GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_PARTUUID} is also set to @samp{true}. If +@samp{GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_PARTUUID} is also set to @samp{true}, +@command{grub-command} will identify by its Linux device name. + +The following table summarizes the behavior of the @command{grub-mkconfig} +command. + +@multitable {detected} {GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_PARTUUID} {GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID} {Linux Root} +@headitem Initrd detected @tab GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_PARTUUID Set To @tab GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID Set To @tab Linux Root ID Method +@item false @tab false @tab false @tab part UUID +@item false @tab false @tab true @tab part UUID +@item false @tab true @tab false @tab dev name +@item false @tab true @tab true @tab dev name +@item true @tab false @tab false @tab fs UUID +@item true @tab false @tab true @tab part UUID +@item true @tab true @tab false @tab fs UUID +@item true @tab true @tab true @tab dev name +@end multitable + +Remember, @samp{GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_PARTUUID} and @samp{GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID} +are also considered to be set to @samp{false} when they are unset. + +@node Shell-like scripting +@section Writing full configuration files directly + +@c Some of this section is derived from the GNU Bash manual page, also +@c copyrighted by the FSF. + +@file{grub.cfg} is written in GRUB's built-in scripting language, which has +a syntax quite similar to that of GNU Bash and other Bourne shell +derivatives. + +@heading Words + +A @dfn{word} is a sequence of characters considered as a single unit by +GRUB. Words are separated by @dfn{metacharacters}, which are the following +plus space, tab, and newline: + +@example +@{ @} | & $ ; < > +@end example + +Quoting may be used to include metacharacters in words; see below. + +@heading Reserved words + +Reserved words have a special meaning to GRUB. The following words are +recognised as reserved when unquoted and either the first word of a simple +command or the third word of a @code{for} command: + +@example +! [[ ]] @{ @} +case do done elif else esac fi for function +if in menuentry select then time until while +@end example + +Not all of these reserved words have a useful purpose yet; some are reserved +for future expansion. + +@heading Quoting + +Quoting is used to remove the special meaning of certain characters or +words. It can be used to treat metacharacters as part of a word, to prevent +reserved words from being recognised as such, and to prevent variable +expansion. + +There are three quoting mechanisms: the escape character, single quotes, and +double quotes. + +A non-quoted backslash (\) is the @dfn{escape character}. It preserves the +literal value of the next character that follows, with the exception of +newline. + +Enclosing characters in single quotes preserves the literal value of each +character within the quotes. A single quote may not occur between single +quotes, even when preceded by a backslash. + +Enclosing characters in double quotes preserves the literal value of all +characters within the quotes, with the exception of @samp{$} and @samp{\}. +The @samp{$} character retains its special meaning within double quotes. +The backslash retains its special meaning only when followed by one of the +following characters: @samp{$}, @samp{"}, @samp{\}, or newline. A +backslash-newline pair is treated as a line continuation (that is, it is +removed from the input stream and effectively ignored@footnote{Currently a +backslash-newline pair within a variable name is not handled properly, so +use this feature with some care.}). A double quote may be quoted within +double quotes by preceding it with a backslash. + +@heading Variable expansion + +The @samp{$} character introduces variable expansion. The variable name to +be expanded may be enclosed in braces, which are optional but serve to +protect the variable to be expanded from characters immediately following it +which could be interpreted as part of the name. + +Normal variable names begin with an alphabetic character, followed by zero +or more alphanumeric characters. These names refer to entries in the GRUB +environment (@pxref{Environment}). + +Positional variable names consist of one or more digits. They represent +parameters passed to function calls, with @samp{$1} representing the first +parameter, and so on. + +The special variable name @samp{?} expands to the exit status of the most +recently executed command. When positional variable names are active, other +special variable names @samp{@@}, @samp{*} and @samp{#} are defined and they +expand to all positional parameters with necessary quoting, positional +parameters without any quoting, and positional parameter count respectively. + +@heading Comments + +A word beginning with @samp{#} causes that word and all remaining characters +on that line to be ignored. + +@heading Simple commands + +A @dfn{simple command} is a sequence of words separated by spaces or tabs +and terminated by a semicolon or a newline. The first word specifies the +command to be executed. The remaining words are passed as arguments to the +invoked command. + +The return value of a simple command is its exit status. If the reserved +word @code{!} precedes the command, then the return value is instead the +logical negation of the command's exit status. + +@heading Compound commands + +A @dfn{compound command} is one of the following: + +@table @asis +@item for @var{name} in @var{word} @dots{}; do @var{list}; done +The list of words following @code{in} is expanded, generating a list of +items. The variable @var{name} is set to each element of this list in turn, +and @var{list} is executed each time. The return value is the exit status +of the last command that executes. If the expansion of the items following +@code{in} results in an empty list, no commands are executed, and the return +status is 0. + +@item if @var{list}; then @var{list}; [elif @var{list}; then @var{list};] @dots{} [else @var{list};] fi +The @code{if} @var{list} is executed.

Otherwise, each @code{elif} @var{list} +is executed in turn, and if its exit status is zero, the corresponding +@code{then} @var{list} is executed and the command completes. Otherwise, +the @code{else} @var{list} is executed, if present. The exit status is the +exit status of the last command executed, or zero if no condition tested +true. + +@item while @var{cond}; do @var{list}; done +@itemx until @var{cond}; do @var{list}; done +The @code{while} command continuously executes the @code{do} @var{list} as +long as the last command in @var{cond} returns an exit status of zero.

You could also use direct @code{root=hd0,msdosX} but this is not recommended due to device name instability. +@end itemize + +@node Embedded configuration +@section Embedding a configuration file into GRUB + +GRUB supports embedding a configuration file directly into the core image, +so that it is loaded before entering normal mode. This is useful, for +example, when it is not straightforward to find the real configuration file, +or when you need to debug problems with loading that file. +@command{grub-install} uses this feature when it is not using BIOS disk +functions or when installing to a different disk from the one containing +@file{/boot/grub}, in which case it needs to use the @command{search} +command (@pxref{search}) to find @file{/boot/grub}. + +To embed a configuration file, use the @option{-c} option to +@command{grub-mkimage}. The file is copied into the core image, so it may +reside anywhere on the file system, and may be removed after running +@command{grub-mkimage}. + +After the embedded configuration file (if any) is executed, GRUB will load +the @samp{normal} module (@pxref{normal}), which will then read the real +configuration file from @file{$prefix/grub.cfg}. By this point, the +@code{root} variable will also have been set to the root device name. For +example, @code{prefix} might be set to @samp{(hd0,1)/boot/grub}, and +@code{root} might be set to @samp{hd0,1}. Thus, in most cases, the embedded +configuration file only needs to set the @code{prefix} and @code{root} +variables, and then drop through to GRUB's normal processing. A typical +example of this might look like this: + +@example +@group +search.fs_uuid 01234567-89ab-cdef-0123-456789abcdef root +set prefix=($root)/boot/grub +@end group +@end example + +(The @samp{search_fs_uuid} module must be included in the core image for this +example to work.) + +In more complex cases, it may be useful to read other configuration files +directly from the embedded configuration file. This allows such things as +reading files not called @file{grub.cfg}, or reading files from a directory +other than that where GRUB's loadable modules are installed. To do this, +include the @samp{configfile} and @samp{normal} modules in the core image, +and embed a configuration file that uses the @command{configfile} command to +load another file. The following example of this also requires the +@command{echo}, @command{search_label}, and @command{test} modules to be +included in the core image: + +@example +@group +search.fs_label grub root +if [ -e /boot/grub/example/test1.cfg ]; then + set prefix=($root)/boot/grub + configfile /boot/grub/example/test1.cfg +else + if [ -e /boot/grub/example/test2.cfg ]; then + set prefix=($root)/boot/grub + configfile /boot/grub/example/test2.cfg + else + echo "Could not find an example configuration file!" + fi +fi +@end group +@end example + +The embedded configuration file may not contain menu entries directly, but +may only read them from elsewhere using @command{configfile}. + +@node Theme file format +@chapter Theme file format +@section Introduction +The GRUB graphical menu supports themes that can customize the layout and +appearance of the GRUB boot menu. The theme is configured through a plain +text file that specifies the layout of the various GUI components (including +the boot menu, timeout progress bar, and text messages) as well as the +appearance using colors, fonts, and images. Example is available in docs/example_theme.txt + +@section Theme Elements +@subsection Colors + +Colors can be specified in several ways: + +@itemize +@item HTML-style ``#RRGGBB'' or ``#RGB'' format, where *R*, *G*, and *B* are hexadecimal digits (e.g., ``#8899FF'') +@item as comma-separated decimal RGB values (e.g., ``128, 128, 255'') +@item with ``SVG 1.0 color names'' (e.g., ``cornflowerblue'') which must be specified in lowercase. +@end itemize +@subsection Fonts +The fonts GRUB uses ``PFF2 font format'' bitmap fonts. Fonts are specified +with full font names. Currently there is no +provision for a preference list of fonts, or deriving one font from another. +Fonts are loaded with the ``loadfont'' command in GRUB (@ref{loadfont}). To see the list of +loaded fonts, execute the ``lsfonts'' command (@ref{lsfonts}). If there are too many fonts to +fit on screen, do ``set pager=1'' before executing ``lsfonts''. + + +@subsection Progress Bar + +@float Figure, Pixmap-styled progress bar +@c @image{Theme_progress_bar,,,,png} +@end float + +@float Figure, Plain progress bar, drawn with solid color. +@c @image{Theme_progress_bar_filled,,,,png} +@end float + +Progress bars are used to display the remaining time before GRUB boots the +default menu entry. To create a progress bar that will display the remaining +time before automatic boot, simply create a ``progress_bar'' component with +the id ``__timeout__''. This indicates to GRUB that the progress bar should +be updated as time passes, and it should be made invisible if the countdown to +automatic boot is interrupted by the user. + +Progress bars may optionally have text displayed on them. This text is +controlled by variable ``text'' which contains a printf template with the +only argument %d is the number of seconds remaining. Additionally special +values ``@@TIMEOUT_NOTIFICATION_SHORT@@'', ``@@TIMEOUT_NOTIFICATION_MIDDLE@@'', +``@@TIMEOUT_NOTIFICATION_LONG@@'' are replaced with standard and translated +templates. + +@subsection Circular Progress Indicator + +@c @image{Theme_circular_progress,,,,.png} + +The circular progress indicator functions similarly to the progress bar. When +given an id of ``__timeout__'', GRUB updates the circular progress indicator's +value to indicate the time remaining. For the circular progress indicator, +there are two images used to render it: the *center* image, and the *tick* +image. The center image is rendered in the center of the component, while the +tick image is used to render each mark along the circumference of the +indicator. + + +@subsection Labels + +Text labels can be placed on the boot screen. The font, color, and horizontal +alignment can be specified for labels. If a label is given the id +``__timeout__'', then the ``text'' property for that label is also updated +with a message informing the user of the number of seconds remaining until +automatic boot. This is useful in case you want the text displayed somewhere +else instead of directly on the progress bar. + + +@subsection Boot Menu + +@c @image{Theme_boot_menu,,,,.png} + +The boot menu where GRUB displays the menu entries from the ``grub.cfg'' file. +It is a list of items, where each item has a title and an optional icon. The +icon is selected based on the *classes* specified for the menu entry. If +there is a PNG file named ``myclass.png'' in the ``grub/themes/icons'' +directory, it will be displayed for items which have the class *myclass*. The +boot menu can be customized in several ways, such as the font and color used +for the menu entry title, and by specifying styled boxes for the menu itself +and for the selected item highlight. + + +@subsection Styled Boxes + +One of the most important features for customizing the layout is the use of + *styled boxes*. A styled box is composed of 9 rectangular (and potentially +empty) regions, which are used to seamlessly draw the styled box on screen: + +@multitable @columnfractions 0.3 0.3 0.3 +@item Northwest (nw) @tab North (n) @tab Northeast (ne) +@item West (w) @tab Center (c) @tab East (e) +@item Southwest (sw) @tab South (s) @tab Southeast (se) +@end multitable + +To support any size of box on screen, the center slice and the slices for the +top, bottom, and sides are all scaled to the correct size for the component on +screen, using the following rules: + +@enumerate +@item The edge slices (north, south, east, and west) are scaled in the direction of the edge they are adjacent to. For instance, the west slice is scaled vertically. +@item The corner slices (northwest, northeast, southeast, and southwest) are not scaled. +@item The center slice is scaled to fill the remaining space in the middle. +@end enumerate + +As an example of how an image might be sliced up, consider the styled box +used for a terminal view. + +@float Figure, An example of the slices (in red) used for a terminal window. This drawing was created and sliced in Inkscape_, as the next section explains. +@c @image{Box_slice_example_terminal,,,,.png} +@end float + +@subsection Creating Styled Box Images + +The Inkscape_ scalable vector graphics editor is a very useful tool for +creating styled box images. One process that works well for slicing a drawing +into the necessary image slices is: + +@enumerate +@item Create or open the drawing you'd like use. +@item Create a new layer on the top of the layer stack. Make it visible. Select this layer as the current layer. +@item Draw 9 rectangles on your drawing where you'd like the slices to be. Clear the fill option, and set the stroke to 1 pixel wide solid stroke. The corners of the slices must meet precisely; if it is off by a single pixel, it will probably be evident when the styled box is rendered in the GRUB menu. You should probably go to File | Document Properties | Grids and enable a grid or create a guide (click on one of the rulers next to the drawing and drag over the drawing; release the mouse button to place the guide) to help place the rectangles precisely. +@item Right click on the center slice rectangle and choose Object Properties. Change the "Id" to ``slice_c`` and click Set. Repeat this for the remaining 8 rectangles, giving them Id values of ``slice_n``, ``slice_ne``, ``slice_e``, and so on according to the location. +@item Save the drawing. +@item Select all the slice rectangles. With the slice layer selected, you can simply press Ctrl+A to select all rectangles. The status bar should indicate that 9 rectangles are selected. +@item Click the layer hide icon for the slice layer in the layer palette. The rectangles will remain selected, even though they are hidden. +@item Choose File | Export Bitmap and check the *Batch export 9 selected objects* box. Make sure that *Hide all except selected* is unchecked. click *Export*. This will create PNG files in the same directory as the drawing, named after the slices. These can now be used for a styled box in a GRUB theme. +@end enumerate + +@section Theme File Manual + +The theme file is a plain text file. Lines that begin with ``#`` are ignored +and considered comments.

To connect one computer with another via a serial line, +you need to prepare a null-modem (cross) serial cable, and you may need +to have multiport serial boards, if your computer doesn't have extra +serial ports. In addition, a terminal emulator is also required, such as +minicom. Refer to a manual of your operating system, for more +information. + +As for GRUB, the instruction to set up a serial terminal is quite +simple. Here is an example: + +@example +@group +grub> @kbd{serial --unit=0 --speed=9600} +grub> @kbd{terminal_input serial; terminal_output serial} +@end group +@end example + +The command @command{serial} initializes the serial unit 0 with the +speed 9600bps. The serial unit 0 is usually called @samp{COM1}, so, if +you want to use COM2, you must specify @samp{--unit=1} instead. This +command accepts many other options, so please refer to @ref{serial}, +for more details. + +The commands @command{terminal_input} (@pxref{terminal_input}) and +@command{terminal_output} (@pxref{terminal_output}) choose which type of +terminal you want to use. In the case above, the terminal will be a +serial terminal, but you can also pass @code{console} to the command, +as @samp{terminal_input serial console}. In this case, a terminal in which +you press any key will be selected as a GRUB terminal. In the example above, +note that you need to put both commands on the same command line, as you +will lose the ability to type commands on the console after the first +command. + +However, note that GRUB assumes that your terminal emulator is +compatible with VT100 by default. This is true for most terminal +emulators nowadays, but you should pass the option @option{--dumb} to +the command if your terminal emulator is not VT100-compatible or +implements few VT100 escape sequences. If you specify this option then +GRUB provides you with an alternative menu interface, because the normal +menu requires several fancy features of your terminal. + + +@node Vendor power-on keys +@chapter Using GRUB with vendor power-on keys + +Some laptop vendors provide an additional power-on button which boots +another OS.

Here is a short +overview of them. + +@table @file +@item boot.img +On PC BIOS systems, this image is the first part of GRUB to start. It is +written to a master boot record (MBR) or to the boot sector of a partition. +Because a PC boot sector is 512 bytes, the size of this image is exactly 512 +bytes. + +The sole function of @file{boot.img} is to read the first sector of the core +image from a local disk and jump to it. Because of the size restriction, +@file{boot.img} cannot understand any file system structure, so +@command{grub-install} hardcodes the location of the first sector of the +core image into @file{boot.img} when installing GRUB. + +@item diskboot.img +This image is used as the first sector of the core image when booting from a +hard disk. It reads the rest of the core image into memory and starts the +kernel. Since file system handling is not yet available, it encodes the +location of the core image using a block list format. + +@item cdboot.img +This image is used as the first sector of the core image when booting from a +CD-ROM drive. It performs a similar function to @file{diskboot.img}. + +@item pxeboot.img +This image is used as the start of the core image when booting from the +network using PXE. @xref{Network}. + +@item lnxboot.img +This image may be placed at the start of the core image in order to make +GRUB look enough like a Linux kernel that it can be booted by LILO using an +@samp{image=} section. + +@item kernel.img +This image contains GRUB's basic run-time facilities: frameworks for device +and file handling, environment variables, the rescue mode command-line +parser, and so on. It is rarely used directly, but is built into all core +images. + +@item core.img +This is the core image of GRUB. It is built dynamically from the kernel +image and an arbitrary list of modules by the @command{grub-mkimage} +program. Usually, it contains enough modules to access @file{/boot/grub}, +and loads everything else (including menu handling, the ability to load +target operating systems, and so on) from the file system at run-time. The +modular design allows the core image to be kept small, since the areas of +disk where it must be installed are often as small as 32KB. + +@xref{BIOS installation}, for details on where the core image can be +installed on PC systems. + +@item *.mod +Everything else in GRUB resides in dynamically loadable modules. These are +often loaded automatically, or built into the core image if they are +essential, but may also be loaded manually using the @command{insmod} +command (@pxref{insmod}). +@end table + +@heading For GRUB Legacy users + +GRUB 2 has a different design from GRUB Legacy, and so correspondences with +the images it used cannot be exact. Nevertheless, GRUB Legacy users often +ask questions in the terms they are familiar with, and so here is a brief +guide to how GRUB 2's images relate to that. + +@table @file +@item stage1 +Stage 1 from GRUB Legacy was very similar to @file{boot.img} in GRUB 2, and +they serve the same function. + +@item *_stage1_5 +In GRUB Legacy, Stage 1.5's function was to include enough filesystem code +to allow the much larger Stage 2 to be read from an ordinary filesystem. In +this respect, its function was similar to @file{core.img} in GRUB 2. +However, @file{core.img} is much more capable than Stage 1.5 was; since it +offers a rescue shell, it is sometimes possible to recover manually in the +event that it is unable to load any other modules, for example if partition +numbers have changed. @file{core.img} is built in a more flexible way, +allowing GRUB 2 to support reading modules from advanced disk types such as +LVM and RAID. + +GRUB Legacy could run with only Stage 1 and Stage 2 in some limited +configurations, while GRUB 2 requires @file{core.img} and cannot work +without it. + +@item stage2 +GRUB 2 has no single Stage 2 image. Instead, it loads modules from +@file{/boot/grub} at run-time. + +@item stage2_eltorito +In GRUB 2, images for booting from CD-ROM drives are now constructed using +@file{cdboot.img} and @file{core.img}, making sure that the core image +contains the @samp{iso9660} module. It is usually best to use the +@command{grub-mkrescue} program for this. + +@item nbgrub +There is as yet no equivalent for @file{nbgrub} in GRUB 2; it was used by +Etherboot and some other network boot loaders. + +@item pxegrub +In GRUB 2, images for PXE network booting are now constructed using +@file{pxeboot.img} and @file{core.img}, making sure that the core image +contains the @samp{pxe} and @samp{pxecmd} modules. @xref{Network}. +@end table + +@node Core image size limitation +@chapter Core image size limitation + +Heavily limited platforms: +@itemize +@item i386-pc (normal and PXE): the core image size (compressed) is limited by 458240 bytes. + kernel.img (.text + .data + .bss, uncompressed) is limited by 392704 bytes. + module size (uncompressed) + kernel.img (.text + .data, uncompressed) is limited by the size of contiguous chunk at 1M address. +@item sparc64-ieee1275: kernel.img (.text + .data + .bss) + modules + 256K (stack) + 2M (heap) is limited by space available at 0x4400.

BIOS and EFI disks use either @samp{fd} or @samp{hd} followed +by a digit, like @samp{fd0}, or @samp{cd}. +AHCI, PATA (ata), crypto, USB use the name of driver followed by a number. +Memdisk and host are limited to one disk and so it's refered just by driver +name. +RAID (md), ofdisk (ieee1275 and nand), LVM (lvm), LDM, virtio (vdsk) +and arcdisk (arc) use intrinsic name of disk prefixed by driver name. +Additionally just ``nand'' refers to the disk aliased as ``nand''. +Conflicts are solved by suffixing a number if necessarry. +Commas need to be escaped. +Loopback uses whatever name specified to @command{loopback} command. +Hostdisk uses names specified in device.map as long as it's of the form +[fhc]d[0-9]* or hostdisk/<OS DEVICE>. +For crypto and RAID (md) additionally you can use the syntax +<driver name>uuid/<uuid>. For LVM additionally you can use the syntax +lvmid/<volume-group-uuid>/<volume-uuid>. + +@example +(fd0) +(hd0) +(cd) +(ahci0) +(ata0) +(crypto0) +(usb0) +(cryptouuid/123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef0) +(mduuid/123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef0) +(lvm/system-root) +(lvmid/F1ikgD-2RES-306G-il9M-7iwa-4NKW-EbV1NV/eLGuCQ-L4Ka-XUgR-sjtJ-ffch-bajr-fCNfz5) +(md/myraid) +(md/0) +(ieee1275/disk2) +(ieee1275//pci@@1f\,0/ide@@d/disk@@2) +(nand) +(memdisk) +(host) +(myloop) +(hostdisk//dev/sda) +@end example + +@var{part-num} represents the partition number of @var{device}, starting +from one. @var{partname} is optional but is recommended since disk may have +several top-level partmaps. Specifying third and later component you can access +to subpartitions. + +The syntax @samp{(hd0)} represents using the entire disk (or the +MBR when installing GRUB), while the syntax @samp{(hd0,1)} +represents using the first partition of the disk (or the boot sector +of the partition when installing GRUB). + +@example +(hd0,msdos1) +(hd0,msdos1,msdos5) +(hd0,msdos1,bsd3) +(hd0,netbsd1) +(hd0,gpt1) +(hd0,1,3) +@end example + +If you enabled the network support, the special drives +@code{(@var{protocol}[,@var{server}])} are also available. Supported protocols +are @samp{http} and @samp{tftp}. If @var{server} is omitted, value of +environment variable @samp{net_default_server} is used. +Before using the network drive, you must initialize the network. +@xref{Network}, for more information. + +If you boot GRUB from a CD-ROM, @samp{(cd)} is available. @xref{Making +a GRUB bootable CD-ROM}, for details. + + +@node File name syntax +@section How to specify files + +There are two ways to specify files, by @dfn{absolute file name} and by +@dfn{block list}. + +An absolute file name resembles a Unix absolute file name, using +@samp{/} for the directory separator (not @samp{\} as in DOS). One +example is @samp{(hd0,1)/boot/grub/grub.cfg}. This means the file +@file{/boot/grub/grub.cfg} in the first partition of the first hard +disk. If you omit the device name in an absolute file name, GRUB uses +GRUB's @dfn{root device} implicitly. So if you set the root device to, +say, @samp{(hd1,1)} by the command @samp{set root=(hd1,1)} (@pxref{set}), +then @code{/boot/kernel} is the same as @code{(hd1,1)/boot/kernel}. + +On ZFS filesystem the first path component must be +@var{volume}@samp{@@}[@var{snapshot}]. +So @samp{/rootvol@@snap-129/boot/grub/grub.cfg} refers to file +@samp{/boot/grub/grub.cfg} in snapshot of volume @samp{rootvol} with name +@samp{snap-129}. Trailing @samp{@@} after volume name is mandatory even if +snapshot name is omitted. + + +@node Block list syntax +@section How to specify block lists + +A block list is used for specifying a file that doesn't appear in the +filesystem, like a chainloader. The syntax is +@code{[@var{offset}]+@var{length}[,[@var{offset}]+@var{length}]@dots{}}. +Here is an example: + +@example +@code{0+100,200+1,300+300} +@end example + +This represents that GRUB should read blocks 0 through 99, block 200, +and blocks 300 through 599. If you omit an offset, then GRUB assumes +the offset is zero. + +Like the file name syntax (@pxref{File name syntax}), if a blocklist +does not contain a device name, then GRUB uses GRUB's @dfn{root +device}. So @code{(hd0,2)+1} is the same as @code{+1} when the root +device is @samp{(hd0,2)}. + + +@node Interface +@chapter GRUB's user interface + +GRUB has both a simple menu interface for choosing preset entries from a +configuration file, and a highly flexible command-line for performing +any desired combination of boot commands. + +GRUB looks for its configuration file as soon as it is loaded. If one +is found, then the full menu interface is activated using whatever +entries were found in the file. If you choose the @dfn{command-line} menu +option, or if the configuration file was not found, then GRUB drops to +the command-line interface. + +@menu +* Command-line interface:: The flexible command-line interface +* Menu interface:: The simple menu interface +* Menu entry editor:: Editing a menu entry +@end menu + + +@node Command-line interface +@section The flexible command-line interface + +The command-line interface provides a prompt and after it an editable +text area much like a command-line in Unix or DOS.

The commands (@pxref{Command-line and menu entry commands}) are a +subset of those available in the configuration file, used with exactly +the same syntax. + +Cursor movement and editing of the text on the line can be done via a +subset of the functions available in the Bash shell: + +@table @key +@item C-f +@itemx PC right key +Move forward one character. + +@item C-b +@itemx PC left key +Move back one character. + +@item C-a +@itemx HOME +Move to the start of the line. + +@item C-e +@itemx END +Move the the end of the line. + +@item C-d +@itemx DEL +Delete the character underneath the cursor. + +@item C-h +@itemx BS +Delete the character to the left of the cursor. + +@item C-k +Kill the text from the current cursor position to the end of the line. + +@item C-u +Kill backward from the cursor to the beginning of the line. + +@item C-y +Yank the killed text back into the buffer at the cursor. + +@item C-p +@itemx PC up key +Move up through the history list. + +@item C-n +@itemx PC down key +Move down through the history list. +@end table + +When typing commands interactively, if the cursor is within or before +the first word in the command-line, pressing the @key{TAB} key (or +@key{C-i}) will display a listing of the available commands, and if the +cursor is after the first word, the @kbd{@key{TAB}} will provide a +completion listing of disks, partitions, and file names depending on the +context. Note that to obtain a list of drives, one must open a +parenthesis, as @command{root (}. + +Note that you cannot use the completion functionality in the TFTP +filesystem. This is because TFTP doesn't support file name listing for +the security. + + +@node Menu interface +@section The simple menu interface + +The menu interface is quite easy to use. Its commands are both +reasonably intuitive and described on screen. + +Basically, the menu interface provides a list of @dfn{boot entries} to +the user to choose from. Use the arrow keys to select the entry of +choice, then press @key{RET} to run it. An optional timeout is +available to boot the default entry (the first one if not set), which is +aborted by pressing any key. + +Commands are available to enter a bare command-line by pressing @key{c} +(which operates exactly like the non-config-file version of GRUB, but +allows one to return to the menu if desired by pressing @key{ESC}) or to +edit any of the @dfn{boot entries} by pressing @key{e}. + +If you protect the menu interface with a password (@pxref{Security}), +all you can do is choose an entry by pressing @key{RET}, or press +@key{p} to enter the password. + + +@node Menu entry editor +@section Editing a menu entry + +The menu entry editor looks much like the main menu interface, but the +lines in the menu are individual commands in the selected entry instead +of entry names. + +If an @key{ESC} is pressed in the editor, it aborts all the changes made +to the configuration entry and returns to the main menu interface. + +Each line in the menu entry can be edited freely, and you can add new lines +by pressing @key{RET} at the end of a line. To boot the edited entry, press +@key{Ctrl-x}. + +Although GRUB unfortunately does not support @dfn{undo}, you can do almost +the same thing by just returning to the main menu using @key{ESC}. + + +@node Environment +@chapter GRUB environment variables + +GRUB supports environment variables which are rather like those offered by +all Unix-like systems.

GRUB deliberately does not +implement support for writing files in order to minimise the possibility of +the boot loader being responsible for file system corruption, so a GRUB +configuration file cannot just create a file in the ordinary way. However, +GRUB provides an ``environment block'' which can be used to save a small +amount of state. + +The environment block is a preallocated 1024-byte file, which normally lives +in @file{/boot/grub/grubenv} (although you should not assume this). At boot +time, the @command{load_env} command (@pxref{load_env}) loads environment +variables from it, and the @command{save_env} (@pxref{save_env}) command +saves environment variables to it. From a running system, the +@command{grub-editenv} utility can be used to edit the environment block. + +For safety reasons, this storage is only available when installed on a plain +disk (no LVM or RAID), using a non-checksumming filesystem (no ZFS), and +using BIOS or EFI functions (no ATA, USB or IEEE1275). + +@command{grub-mkconfig} uses this facility to implement +@samp{GRUB_SAVEDEFAULT} (@pxref{Simple configuration}). + + +@node Commands +@chapter The list of available commands + +In this chapter, we list all commands that are available in GRUB. + +Commands belong to different groups.

AFS and BFS are read +as UTF-8, again according to specification. BtrFS, cpio, tar, squash4, minix, +minix2, minix3, ROMFS, ReiserFS, XFS, ext2, ext3, ext4, FAT (short names), +F2FS, RockRidge part of ISO9660, nilfs2, UFS1, UFS2 and ZFS are assumed +to be UTF-8. This might be false on systems configured with legacy charset +but as long as the charset used is superset of ASCII you should be able to +access ASCII-named files. And it's recommended to configure your system to use +UTF-8 to access the filesystem, convmv may help with migration. ISO9660 (plain) +filenames are specified as being ASCII or being described with unspecified +escape sequences. GRUB assumes that the ISO9660 names are UTF-8 (since +any ASCII is valid UTF-8). There are some old CD-ROMs which use CP437 +in non-compliant way. You're still able to access files with names containing +only ASCII characters on such filesystems though. You're also able to access +any file if the filesystem contains valid Joliet (UTF-16) or RockRidge (UTF-8). +AFFS, SFS and HFS never use unicode and GRUB assumes them to be in Latin1, +Latin1 and MacRoman respectively. GRUB handles filesystem case-insensitivity +however no attempt is performed at case conversion of international characters +so e.g. a file named lowercase greek alpha is treated as different from +the one named as uppercase alpha. The filesystems in questions are +NTFS (except POSIX namespace), HFS+ (configurable at mkfs time, default +insensitive), SFS (configurable at mkfs time, default insensitive), +JFS (configurable at mkfs time, default sensitive), HFS, AFFS, FAT, exFAT +and ZFS (configurable on per-subvolume basis by property ``casesensitivity'', +default sensitive). On ZFS subvolumes marked as case insensitive files +containing lowercase international characters are inaccessible. +Also like all supported filesystems except HFS+ and ZFS (configurable on +per-subvolume basis by property ``normalization'', default none) GRUB makes +no attempt at check of canonical equivalence so a file name u-diaresis is +treated as distinct from u+combining diaresis. This however means that in +order to access file on HFS+ its name must be specified in normalisation form D. +On normalized ZFS subvolumes filenames out of normalisation are inaccessible. + +@section Output terminal +Firmware output console ``console'' on ARC and IEEE1275 are limited to ASCII. + +BIOS firmware console and VGA text are limited to ASCII and some pseudographics. + +None of above mentioned is appropriate for displaying international and any +unsupported character is replaced with question mark except pseudographics +which we attempt to approximate with ASCII. + +EFI console on the other hand nominally supports UTF-16 but actual language +coverage depends on firmware and may be very limited. + +The encoding used on serial can be chosen with @command{terminfo} as +either ASCII, UTF-8 or ``visual UTF-8''. Last one is against the specification +but results in correct rendering of right-to-left on some readers which don't +have own bidi implementation. + +On emu GRUB checks if charset is UTF-8 and uses it if so and uses ASCII +otherwise. + +When using gfxterm or gfxmenu GRUB itself is responsible for rendering the +text. In this case GRUB is limited by loaded fonts. If fonts contain all +required characters then bidirectional text, cursive variants and combining +marks other than enclosing, half (e.g. left half tilde or combining overline) +and double ones. Ligatures aren't supported though. This should cover European, +Middle Eastern (if you don't mind lack of lam-alif ligature in Arabic) and +East Asian scripts. Notable unsupported scripts are Brahmic family and +derived as well as Mongolian, Tifinagh, Korean Jamo (precomposed characters +have no problem) and tonal writing (2e5-2e9). GRUB also ignores deprecated +(as specified in Unicode) characters (e.g. tags). GRUB also doesn't handle so +called ``annotation characters'' If you can complete either of +two lists or, better, propose a patch to improve rendering, please contact +developer team. + +@section Input terminal +Firmware console on BIOS, IEEE1275 and ARC doesn't allow you to enter non-ASCII +characters. EFI specification allows for such but author is unaware of any +actual implementations. Serial input is currently limited for latin1 (unlikely +to change). Own keyboard implementations (at_keyboard and usb_keyboard) +supports any key but work on one-char-per-keystroke. +So no dead keys or advanced input method. Also there is no keymap change hotkey. +In practice it makes difficult to enter any text using non-Latin alphabet. +Moreover all current input consumers are limited to ASCII. + +@section Gettext +GRUB supports being translated. For this you need to have language *.mo files in $prefix/locale, load gettext module and set ``lang'' variable. + +@section Regexp +Regexps work on unicode characters, however no attempt at checking cannonical +equivalence has been made. Moreover the classes like [:alpha:] match only +ASCII subset. + +@section Other +Currently GRUB always uses YEAR-MONTH-DAY HOUR:MINUTE:SECOND [WEEKDAY] 24-hour +datetime format but weekdays are translated. +GRUB always uses the decimal number format with [0-9] as digits and . as +descimal separator and no group separator. +IEEE1275 aliases are matched case-insensitively except non-ASCII which is +matched as binary. Similar behaviour is for matching OSBundleRequired. +Since IEEE1275 aliases and OSBundleRequired don't contain any non-ASCII it +should never be a problem in practice. +Case-sensitive identifiers are matched as raw strings, no canonical +equivalence check is performed. Case-insenstive identifiers are matched +as RAW but additionally [a-z] is equivalent to [A-Z]. GRUB-defined +identifiers use only ASCII and so should user-defined ones. +Identifiers containing non-ASCII may work but aren't supported. +Only the ASCII space characters (space U+0020, tab U+000b, CR U+000d and +LF U+000a) are recognised. Other unicode space characters aren't a valid +field separator. +@command{test} (@pxref{test}) tests <, >, <=, >=, -pgt and -plt compare the strings in the +lexicographical order of unicode codepoints, replicating the behaviour of +test from coreutils. +environment variables and commands are listed in the same order. + +@node Security +@chapter Security + +@menu +* Authentication and authorisation:: Users and access control +* Using digital signatures:: Booting digitally signed code +* UEFI secure boot and shim:: Booting digitally signed PE files +* Secure Boot Advanced Targeting:: Embedded information for generation number based revocation +* Measured Boot:: Measuring boot components +* Lockdown:: Lockdown when booting on a secure setup +@end menu + +@node Authentication and authorisation +@section Authentication and authorisation in GRUB + +By default, the boot loader interface is accessible to anyone with physical +access to the console: anyone can select and edit any menu entry, and anyone +can get direct access to a GRUB shell prompt. For most systems, this is +reasonable since anyone with direct physical access has a variety of other +ways to gain full access, and requiring authentication at the boot loader +level would only serve to make it difficult to recover broken systems. + +However, in some environments, such as kiosks, it may be appropriate to lock +down the boot loader to require authentication before performing certain +operations. + +The @samp{password} (@pxref{password}) and @samp{password_pbkdf2} +(@pxref{password_pbkdf2}) commands can be used to define users, each of +which has an associated password. @samp{password} sets the password in +plain text, requiring @file{grub.cfg} to be secure; @samp{password_pbkdf2} +sets the password hashed using the Password-Based Key Derivation Function +(RFC 2898), requiring the use of @command{grub-mkpasswd-pbkdf2} +(@pxref{Invoking grub-mkpasswd-pbkdf2}) to generate password hashes. + +In order to enable authentication support, the @samp{superusers} environment +variable must be set to a list of usernames, separated by any of spaces, +commas, semicolons, pipes, or ampersands. Superusers are permitted to use +the GRUB command line, edit menu entries, and execute any menu entry. If +@samp{superusers} is set, then use of the command line and editing of menu +entries are automatically restricted to superusers. Setting @samp{superusers} +to empty string effectively disables both access to CLI and editing of menu +entries. Note: The environment variable needs to be exported to also affect +the section defined by the @samp{submenu} command (@pxref{submenu}). + +Other users may be allowed to execute specific menu entries by giving a list of +usernames (as above) using the @option{--users} option to the +@samp{menuentry} command (@pxref{menuentry}). If the @option{--unrestricted} +option is used for a menu entry, then that entry is unrestricted. +If the @option{--users} option is not used for a menu entry, then that +only superusers are able to use it. + +Putting this together, a typical @file{grub.cfg} fragment might look like +this: + +@example +@group +set superusers="root" +password_pbkdf2 root grub.pbkdf2.sha512.10000.biglongstring +password user1 insecure + +menuentry "May be run by any user" --unrestricted @{ + set root=(hd0,1) + linux /vmlinuz +@} + +menuentry "Superusers only" --users "" @{ + set root=(hd0,1) + linux /vmlinuz single +@} + +menuentry "May be run by user1 or a superuser" --users user1 @{ + set root=(hd0,2) + chainloader +1 +@} +@end group +@end example + +The @command{grub-mkconfig} program does not yet have built-in support for +generating configuration files with authentication.

If +validation fails, then file @file{foo} cannot be opened. This failure +may halt or otherwise impact the boot process. + +An initial trusted public key can be embedded within the GRUB @file{core.img} +using the @code{--pubkey} option to @command{grub-install} +(@pxref{Invoking grub-install}). + +GRUB uses GPG-style detached signatures (meaning that a file +@file{foo.sig} will be produced when file @file{foo} is signed), and +currently supports the DSA and RSA signing algorithms. A signing key +can be generated as follows: + +@example +gpg --gen-key +@end example + +An individual file can be signed as follows: + +@example +gpg --detach-sign /path/to/file +@end example + +For successful validation of all of GRUB's subcomponents and the +loaded OS kernel, they must all be signed.

Passing one or more @code{--pubkey} options to +@command{grub-mkimage} implicitly defines @code{check_signatures} +equal to @code{enforce} in @file{core.img} prior to processing any +configuration files. + +Note that signature checking does @strong{not} prevent an attacker +with (serial, physical, ...) console access from dropping manually to +the GRUB console and executing: + +@example +set check_signatures=no +@end example + +To prevent this, password-protection (@pxref{Authentication and +authorisation}) is essential. Note that even with GRUB password +protection, GRUB itself cannot prevent someone with physical access to +the machine from altering that machine's firmware (e.g., Coreboot +or BIOS) configuration to cause the machine to boot from a different +(attacker-controlled) device. GRUB is at best only one link in a +secure boot chain. + +@node UEFI secure boot and shim +@section UEFI secure boot and shim support + +The GRUB, except the @command{chainloader} command, works with the UEFI secure +boot and the shim.

The @samp{shim_lock} variable is set to @samp{y} when shim_lock verifier +is registered. If it is desired to use UEFI secure boot without shim, one can +disable shim_lock by disabling shim verification with MokSbState UEFI variable +or by building grub image with @samp{--disable-shim-lock} option. + +All GRUB modules not stored in the @file{core.img}, OS kernels, ACPI tables, +Device Trees, etc. have to be signed, e.g, using PGP. Additionally, the commands +that can be used to subvert the UEFI secure boot mechanism, such as @command{iorw} +and @command{memrw} will not be available when the UEFI secure boot is enabled. +This is done for security reasons and are enforced by the GRUB Lockdown mechanism +(@pxref{Lockdown}). + +@node Secure Boot Advanced Targeting +@section Embedded information for generation number based revocation + +The Secure Boot Advanced Targeting (SBAT) is a mechanism to allow the revocation +of components in the boot path by using generation numbers embedded into the EFI +binaries.

We +try to keep all platforms at the level. Unfortunately some platforms are better +supported than others. This is detailed in current and 2 following sections. + +All platforms have an artificially GRUB imposed disk size restriction of 1 EiB. +In some cases, larger disk sizes can be used, but access will not be allowed +beyond 1 EiB. + +LUKS2 devices with size larger than 16 EiB are currently not supported. They +can not be created as crypto devices by cryptomount, so can not even be +partially read from. LUKS have no limitations other than those imposed by the +format. + +ARC platform is unable to change datetime (firmware doesn't seem to provide a +function for it). +EMU has similar limitation. + +On EMU platform no serial port is available. + +Console charset refers only to firmware-assisted console. gfxterm is always +Unicode (see Internationalisation section for its limitations). Serial is +configurable to UTF-8 or ASCII (see Internationalisation). In case of qemu +and coreboot ports the refered console is vga_text. Loongson always uses +gfxterm. + +Most limited one is ASCII. CP437 provides additionally pseudographics. +GRUB2 doesn't use any language characters from CP437 as often CP437 is replaced +by national encoding compatible only in pseudographics. +Unicode is the most versatile charset which supports many languages. However +the actual console may be much more limited depending on firmware + +On BIOS, network is supported only if the image is loaded through network. +On sparc64, GRUB is unable to determine which server it was booted from. + +Direct ATA/AHCI support allows to circumvent various firmware limitations but +isn't needed for normal operation except on baremetal ports. + +AT keyboard support allows keyboard layout remapping and support for keys not +available through firmware. It isn't needed for normal operation except +baremetal ports. + +Speaker allows morse and spkmodem communication. + +USB support provides benefits similar to ATA (for USB disks) or AT (for USB +keyboards). In addition it allows USBserial. + +Chainloading refers to the ability to load another bootloader through the same protocol + +Hints allow faster disk discovery by already knowing in advance which is the disk in +question. On some platforms hints are correct unless you move the disk between boots. +On other platforms it's just an educated guess. +Note that hint failure results in just reduced performance, not a failure + +BadRAM is the ability to mark some of the RAM as ``bad''. Note: due to protocol +limitations mips-loongson (with Linux protocol) +and mips-qemu_mips can use only memory up to first hole. + +Bootlocation is ability of GRUB to automatically detect where it boots from. +``disk'' means the detection is limited to detecting the disk with partition +being discovered on install time. ``partition'' means that disk and partiton +can be automatically discovered. ``file'' means that boot image file name as +well as disk and partition can be discovered. For consistency, default install ignores +partition and relies solely on disk detection. If no bootlocation discovery is available +or boot and grub-root disks are different, UUID is used instead.

This command is responsible for reading +@file{/boot/grub/grub.cfg}, running the menu, and doing all the useful +things GRUB is supposed to do. + +If, instead, you only get a rescue shell, this usually means that GRUB +failed to load the @samp{normal} module for some reason. It may be possible +to work around this temporarily: for instance, if the reason for the failure +is that @samp{prefix} is wrong (perhaps it refers to the wrong device, or +perhaps the path to @file{/boot/grub} was not correctly made relative to the +device), then you can correct this and enter normal mode manually: + +@example +@group +# Inspect the current prefix (and other preset variables): +set +# Find out which devices are available: +ls +# Set to the correct value, which might be something like this: +set prefix=(hd0,1)/grub +set root=(hd0,1) +insmod normal +normal +@end group +@end example + +However, any problem that leaves you in the rescue shell probably means that +GRUB was not correctly installed. It may be more useful to try to reinstall +it properly using @kbd{grub-install @var{device}} (@pxref{Invoking +grub-install}). When doing this, there are a few things to remember: + +@itemize @bullet{} +@item +Drive ordering in your operating system may not be the same as the boot +drive ordering used by your firmware. Do not assume that your first hard +drive (e.g. @samp{/dev/sda}) is the one that your firmware will boot from. +@file{device.map} (@pxref{Device map}) can be used to override this, but it +is usually better to use UUIDs or file system labels and avoid depending on +drive ordering entirely. + +@item +At least on BIOS systems, if you tell @command{grub-install} to install GRUB +to a partition but GRUB has already been installed in the master boot +record, then the GRUB installation in the partition will be ignored. + +@item +If possible, it is generally best to avoid installing GRUB to a partition +(unless it is a special partition for the use of GRUB alone, such as the +BIOS Boot Partition used on GPT). Doing this means that GRUB may stop being +able to read its core image due to a file system moving blocks around, such +as while defragmenting, running checks, or even during normal operation. +Installing to the whole disk device is normally more robust. + +@item +Check that GRUB actually knows how to read from the device and file system +containing @file{/boot/grub}. It will not be able to read from encrypted +devices with unsupported encryption scheme, nor from file systems for which +support has not yet been added to GRUB. +@end itemize + + +@node Firmware stalls instead of booting GRUB +@section Firmware stalls instead of booting GRUB + +The EFI implementation of some older MacBook laptops stalls when it gets +presented a grub-mkrescue ISO image for x86_64-efi target on an USB stick. +Affected are models of year 2010 or earlier.

Linux does not have these for journalling +file systems, because it will always attempt to replay the journal at mount +time; while you can temporarily mark the block device read-only to avoid +this, that causes the mount to fail. Since GRUB intentionally contains no +code for writing to file systems, it can easily provide a guaranteed +read-only mount mechanism. + +@item +It allows you to examine any file system that GRUB understands without +needing to load additional modules into your running kernel, which may be +useful in constrained environments such as installers. + +@item +Since it can examine file system images (contained in regular files) just as +easily as file systems on block devices, you can use it to inspect any file +system image that GRUB understands with only enough privileges to use FUSE, +even if nobody has yet written a FUSE module specifically for that file +system type. +@end itemize + +Using @command{grub-mount} is normally as simple as: + +@example +grub-mount /dev/sda1 /mnt +@end example + +@command{grub-mount} must be given one or more images and a mount point as +non-option arguments (if it is given more than one image, it will treat them +as a RAID set), and also accepts the following options: + +@table @option +@item --help +Print a summary of the command-line options and exit. + +@item --version +Print the version number of GRUB and exit. + +@item -C +@itemx --crypto +Mount encrypted devices, prompting for a passphrase if necessary. + +@item -d @var{string} +@itemx --debug=@var{string} +Show debugging output for conditions matching @var{string}. + +@item -K prompt|@var{file} +@itemx --zfs-key=prompt|@var{file} +Load a ZFS encryption key.

See +@uref{http://sources.redhat.com/binutils/}, to obtain information on +how to get the latest version. +@end quotation + +GRUB is available from the GNU alpha archive site +@uref{ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/grub} or any of its mirrors. The file +will be named grub-version.tar.gz. The current version is +@value{VERSION}, so the file you should grab is: + +@uref{ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/grub/grub-@value{VERSION}.tar.gz} + +To unbundle GRUB use the instruction: + +@example +@kbd{zcat grub-@value{VERSION}.tar.gz | tar xvf -} +@end example + +which will create a directory called @file{grub-@value{VERSION}} with +all the sources. You can look at the file @file{INSTALL} for detailed +instructions on how to build and install GRUB, but you should be able to +just do: + +@example +@group +@kbd{cd grub-@value{VERSION}} +@kbd{./configure} +@kbd{make install} +@end group +@end example + +Also, the latest version is available using Git. See +@uref{http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/grub-download.html} for more +information. + +@node Reporting bugs +@appendix Reporting bugs + +These are the guideline for how to report bugs. Take a look at this +list below before you submit bugs: + +@enumerate +@item +Before getting unsettled, read this manual through and through. Also, +see the @uref{http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/grub-faq.html, GNU GRUB FAQ}. + +@item +Always mention the information on your GRUB. The version number and the +configuration are quite important. If you build it yourself, write the +options specified to the configure script and your operating system, +including the versions of gcc and binutils. + +@item +If you have trouble with the installation, inform us of how you +installed GRUB. Don't omit error messages, if any. Just @samp{GRUB hangs +up when it boots} is not enough. + +The information on your hardware is also essential. These are especially +important: the geometries and the partition tables of your hard disk +drives and your BIOS. + +@item +If GRUB cannot boot your operating system, write down +@emph{everything} you see on the screen. Don't paraphrase them, like +@samp{The foo OS crashes with GRUB, even though it can boot with the +bar boot loader just fine}. Mention the commands you executed, the +messages printed by them, and information on your operating system +including the version number. + +@item +Explain what you wanted to do. It is very useful to know your purpose +and your wish, and how GRUB didn't satisfy you. + +@item +If you can investigate the problem yourself, please do. That will give +you and us much more information on the problem. Attaching a patch is +even better. + +When you attach a patch, make the patch in unified diff format, and +write ChangeLog entries. But, even when you make a patch, don't forget +to explain the problem, so that we can understand what your patch is +for. + +@item +Write down anything that you think might be related. Please understand +that we often need to reproduce the same problem you encountered in our +environment. So your information should be sufficient for us to do the +same thing---Don't forget that we cannot see your computer directly. If +you are not sure whether to state a fact or leave it out, state it! +Reporting too many things is much better than omitting something +important. +@end enumerate + +If you follow the guideline above, submit a report to the +@uref{http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?group=grub, Bug Tracking System}. +Alternatively, you can submit a report via electronic mail to +@email{bug-grub@@gnu.org}, but we strongly recommend that you use the +Bug Tracking System, because e-mail can be passed over easily. + +Once we get your report, we will try to fix the bugs. + + +@node Future +@appendix Where GRUB will go + +GRUB 2 is now quite stable and used in many production systems. We are +currently working towards a 2.0 release. + +If you are interested in the development of GRUB 2, take a look at +@uref{http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/grub.html, the homepage}. + + + + + +@node Copying This Manual +@appendix Copying This Manual + +@menu +* GNU Free Documentation License:: License for copying this manual. +@end menu + +@include fdl.texi + + +@node Index +@unnumbered Index + +@c Currently, we use only the Concept Index. +@printindex cp + + +@bye + +Some notes: + + This is an attempt to make a manual for GRUB 2.
