*GRUB2* is the latest version of *GNU GRUB*, the _GRand Unified Bootloader_.
|
|
A bootloader is the first software program that runs when a computer
|
|
starts. It is responsible for loading and transferring control to the
|
|
operating system kernel. In Fedora, the kernel is Linux. The kernel then initializes
|
|
the rest of the operating system.
|
|
|
|
*GRUB2* is the follower of the previous version *GRUB* (version 0.9x). The original version is available under the name *GRUB Legacy*.
|
|
|
|
Since Fedora 16, *GRUB2* has been the default bootloader on x86 BIOS
|
|
systems. For upgrades of BIOS systems, the default is also to install
|
|
*GRUB2*, but you can opt to skip bootloader configuration entirely.
