#GRUB4DOS BOOT PARTITION WINDOWS#
Load Windows NT/2K/XP Recovery Console (cmdcons).For chainloading devices refer to the following sections -ĭirectly chainloading OS files has an advantage over chainloading the device, as a partition or floppy (or partition/floppy image) with a corrupted boot sector can still be booted (as long as the filesystem remains correct). By chainloading the device Grub4dos can be used to boot unsupported partition types, as long as the operating system uses the MBR and/or partition boot sector as part of the bootstrap process. Both methods involve using the chainloader command, one to boot the device, the other to boot the operating system kernel or bootloader file(s). Grub4dos utilises two different methods for booting operating systems - both of which can be used via command line or configuration file entries.
