You can boot the GRUB4DOS boot-loader/boot-manager in different manners:
(1) Run GRUB.EXE at the DOS prompt or in AUTOEXEC.BAT
(2) In CONFIG.SYS of DOS/Windows9x, use DEVICE=GRUB.EXE or INSTALL=GRUB.EXE or SHELL=GRUB.EXE (3) In BOOT.INI of Windows NT/2K/XP, use C:GRLDR='GRUB' (there should be a backslash between C: and GRLDR) (4) Under Linux, use 'kexec -l grub.exe' and then 'kexec -e' (5) In syslinux.cfg, use 'kernel grub.exe' (6) Under GNU GRUB, use 'kernel (DEVICE)/PATH/grub.exe' (7) In lilo.conf, use 'image=/boot/grub.exe' All above methods won't touch the MBR nor the boot area of any partition. (8) Boot from MBR(or floppy) by installing boot sectors onto it with the DOS/LINUX utility bootlace.com. When GRUB4DOS gets running, you can boot other OSes:
(1) Boot Linux kernel with 'kernel (DEVICE)/PATH/vmlinuz'
(2) Boot MS-DOS7+ kernel with 'chainloader (DEVICE)/io.sys' (3) Boot FreeDOS kernel with 'chainloader (DEVICE)/kernel.sys' (4) Boot NTLDR of Windows NT/2K/XP with 'chainloader (DEVICE)/ntldr' (5) Boot CMLDR of Windows NT/2K/XP with 'chainloader (DEVICE)/cmldr' (6) Boot other OSes with 'chainloader (DEVICE)+1' (7) Boot DOS/Windows9x disk image files with the memdrive feature. (8) Boot Smart Boot Manager with the memdrive feature(SBM can boot CD-ROMs).
