This post discusses the requirement for a GPT BIOS Boot Partition by GRUB2 in order to boot a BIOS-based system. This post discusses how to upgrade your Fedora 16 system from a MBR partitioned boot disk booted using GRUB Legacy to a GPT partitioned disk booted using GRUB2. With the release of Fedora 15, I decided to have another look at the state of UEFI booting Fedora using GRUB2. In this post I show you how to build and install an UEFI version of GRUB2 which can be used to boot Fedora 15 instead of using the UEFI-enabled version of Legacy GRUB that comes with Fedora 15. This post demonstrates how to build a simple bootable image containing GRUB Legacy and run it in QEMU in either graphical or non-graphical mode. This post demonstrates how to build and install GRUB 1.99-beta0 on a UEFI platform running Fedora 14. It also discusses how to use the grub-mkfont utility to create a suitable font file for graphics mode and how to display a background image. |
