now suppose i have Two OS install -- debian Etch and the centos ...and grub is the default boot loader ( and grub file is located in /etc/grub.conf ..which has instruction / menu screen for booting the various OS ) but i don't seem to understand one thing - How is /etc/grub.conf made available to the boot loader even before a OS is selected ( explanation not very clear in the article )
Grub is almost an os with a shell and fs reader. once stage2 is loaded it can recognise partitions and most filesystems.
