GRand Unified Bootloader (Legacy version)

GRUB is a GPLed bootloader intended to unify bootloading across x86 operating systems. In addition to loading the Linux kernel, it implements the Multiboot standard, which allows for flexible loading of multiple boot images (needed for modular kernels such as the GNU Hurd).

Please note that GRUB Legacy is in maintainance mode and new features are only accepted in GRUB 2 (grub-pc package).
