我用的是双硬盘,分别装xp和mandrake,以前都是在bios中设置双引导很不方便(我不想覆盖xp的mbr).自从找到grub
for
dos后引导双系统真是太方便了。下载:Grub_for_dos-0.2.0pre12.tar.gz文件,解压后把
grub 和 GRLDR 两个文件拷贝到 c:
盘的根下。在boot.ini中增加一行:c:\GRLDR=“start
grub”.重启后选择此项,它会自动搜索boot/grub/menu.lst文件,以后就像是在linux下一样。压缩包中自带boot/grub/menu.lst文件,可以把它也放在c:
盘的根下,这样就会自动加载。不过要根据自己的情况加以修改。以下是我的menu.lst文件。
# This is a sample menu.lst file. You should make some changes to
it.

pause You requested to install GRUB onto MBR. We highly recommend
you NOT to do so, basically for two reasons: 1. For some
non-MS-compatible boot loaders(in case you might be using), the
install is INDEED dangerous and may cause your whole disk(and all
your operating systems on it) unaccessible. 2. Even if you are
using(in MBR)an MS-compatible boot loader such as LILO and GRUB,
you may encounter problems like hard-disk-boot-failure when you
move or delete the /boot/grub/stage2 file, or even when disk
