Grubinst 1.1
Posted on
Introdution This utility is used to install GRUB4DOS to the MBR of hard disk or image file. Grubinst.exe is a console mode program. It mimics the behavior of the DOS/Linux utility bootlace.com from TinyBit's GRUB4DOS package.
But unlike bootlace.com, grubinst is writen completely in C and can be compiled to run in OSs like Windows NT/2K/XP, Linux and FreeBSD. Grubinstgui.exe is a GUI frontend to grubinst.exe.
It provides a friendly interface to users who are not familiar whith the command line environment. Currently, grubinstgui.exe only runs in Windows OSs. Please note that these utilities only install MBR, it DOES NOT copy GRLDR to your partition or configure menu.lst, neither does it modify boot.ini to enable booting from the NT boot manager. To know more about such things, please refers to READMEGRUB4DOS.txt which contains information about the GRUB4DOS package.
Also note that the current version of grubinst doesn't support modify the MBR of hard disk in Windows 95/98/ME. For those OSs, bootlace.com should be used instead. Features of grubinst 2.1 Use special name to represent devices In grubinst, you can use special filename to represent hard disks and floppies.
(hdN) Hard disk device N. In Linux, (hd0) - (hd3) equals to /dev/hda - /dev/hdd. In FreeBSD, (hd0) - (hd3) equals to /dev/ad0 - /dev/ad3.
In Windows, (hdN) equals to. PHYSICALDRIVEN (hdN,P) Partition P on hard disk N. Primary partition is 0-3, extended partition starts at 4. (fdN) Floppy device N. In Linux/FreeBSD, (fdN) equals to /dev/fdN. In Windows, (fd0) and (fd1) equals to drive A: and B. (fdN,P) Partition P on floppy N.
Bootlace.com use numbers to represent devices. Floppies starts with 0, and hard disks starts with 0x80. In bash/csh shellhave special meaning. So you need to wrap the device name with ' or '. The 6-series of FreeBSD doesn't allow you to access a hard disk device which has been open.
This means you can't modify the MBR of your currently used hard disk. Older series of FreeBSD don't have this problem. 2.2 Save/Restore function Normally, the original MBR is only one sector long, it's stored in the second sector of the new GRLDR MBR.
You can restore it using -restore-prevmbr option. However, if the original MBR is longer than one sector, for instance, you have other boot manager installed, then GRLDR MBR dones't have room to hold it. In this case, you should use -save=FILENAME to save the original MBR to an external file, and use -restore=FILENAME to restore it. Starts from version 1.1, -save=FILENAME and -restore=FILENAME also works for partition boot sector.restore-prevmbr doesn't work with partitions. In version 1.0.1, -save=FN and -restore=FN are called -save-mbr=FN and -restore-mbr=FN, I remove the mbr part becase it now works for mbr and boot sector.
Install GRLDR to MBR/BS, and save the original MBR/BS to an external file. Grubinst -save=FILENAME DEVICEORFILE Example 2. Restore MBR from previous one sector MBR grubinst -restoreprevmbr DEVICEORFILE Example 3. Restore MBR/BS from external file grubinst -restore=FILENAME DEVICEORFILE 2.3 Partition and floppy support (New in version 1.1) You can use -list-part to list all partitions in device or file. Grubinst -list-part DEVICEORFILE This option is diagnostic, it won't actually install GRLDR. To install GRLDR to partition, just use the proper partition name, or use -install-partition=I option to set the partition number. You don't need to worry about file system type, as they are probed automatically.
Support file system are FAT12, FAT16, FAT32, NTFS and Ext2. To install GRLDR to floppy image, you need to use the -floppy option. If you install GRLDR Boot Record to a floppy or a partition, the floppy or partition will boot solely grldr, and your original IO.SYS(DOS/Win9x/Me) and NTLDR(WinNT/2K/XP) will become unbootable. This is because the original boot record of the floppy or partition was overwritten. There is no such problem when installing GRLDR Boot Record onto the MBR.
Update: Some NTLDR/IO.SYS/ KERNEL.SYS files can be directly chainloaded in the latest GRUB4DOS. You can use -start-sector=B option to specific the absolute address of the start sector of partition, but we don't recommend it, as grubinst can extract the information from the partition table in MBR.
You can use -verbose option to see more information about the partition on which you install GRLDR. It is good pratice to first use -read-only and -verbose to verify the partition before actually installing GRLDR. Grubinst -read-only -verbose (hd0,0) Output: Part Fs: 0B (FAT32) Part Leng: 1542240 Start sector: 1028160 Image type: FAT32 Read only mode Note 4. Option -floppy=N do exactly the same thing as -install-partition=I. It's here just to improve the compatibility with bootlace.com.

2.4 Short options (New in version 1.1) Some options have short counterparts.h -help -v -verbose -l -list-part -s=FN -save=FN -r=FN -restore=FN -r -restore-prevmbr -t -read-only -t=T -timeout=T -k=K -hot-key=K -f -floppy -p=I -install-partition=I -o -output -b=FN -boot-file=FN -2 -grub2 Note 1. In order to achive compatiblility between gcc and vc6, I don't use the getopt function to parse options. Therefore, combining short options doesn't work. For example, -vl is not equal to -v -l.
2.5 Key code translation (New in version 1.1) In option -hot-key=K, you can use symbol names instead of raw codes. Raw code is still accepted, but they need to start with the hexadecimal prefix 0x.

Support key names are: A-Z, 0-9, F1-F12, - = ; '., /, BACKSPACE, DEL, DOWN, END, ENTER, ESC, HOME, INS, KEY-5, KEY-., KEY-, KEY-+, KEY-/, LEFT, PGDN, PGUP, PRRTSC, RIGHT, SPACE, TAB and UP. Support prefix are: shift-, ctrl- and alt. You can't use more that one prefix. For example ctrl-alt-A is not valid. Some character have special meaning to shell, so you need to wrap them with ' or ' (' can't be used in cmd.exe). For example, grubinst '-hot-key=;' DEVICEORFILE or grubinst '-hot-key=ctrl- ' DEVICEORDEVICE Note 3. Key name is case insensitive.

Therefore, ctrl-a, CTRL-A and Ctrl-A are all the same. To see the raw code of a key name, you can use -verbose option. For example: grubinst -verbose -hot-key=ctrl-a Output: Key CTRL-A: 0x1E01 grubinst: No filename specified You can ignore the error message as we are not actually installing GRLDR.
