About GRUB

Before you know grub, you need to understand the startup process of Linux, and if you don't know about the Linux boot process before, see: http://xinzong.blog.51cto.com/10018904/1757337

The GRUB (GRand Unified Bootloader) Unified boot loader, which is the boot loader. The grub on CentOS is divided into two versions, namely:
CentOS 7 Default with GRUB2

Grub Legacy (Grub 0.1 is generally called GRUB1)
GRUB 2 (grub1.0 commonly referred to as GRUB2)
This article mainly introduces the Grub legacy.

Grub Menu composed of Grub menu

Before you introduce the menu, take a look at Grub legacy
The Grub legacy is divided into three stages:

Stage 1:MBR
The STAGE1_5:MBR after the function is to allow the bootloader in Stage1 to identify the filesystem on the Stage2 partition
Stage2: Disk partition ()/boot/grub/)

Stage2 and kernels are typically placed on a basic disk partition.
The function of Stage2:

1, provide the menu, and provide interactive interface
E: Edit mode, for editing menus
C: Command mode, interactive interface
2. Load the user-selected kernel or operating system
Allow parameters to be passed to the kernel
To hide this menu
3, for the menu provides a protection mechanism
Certification for the Edit menu
Kernel or operating system not enabled for authentication

Grub Command Line interface

Grub command-line interface:

help : Get help list  
help KEYWORD : detailed help information  
find (hd#,#)/path/to/somefile : Find Files  
root (hd#,#)  
kernel/ Path/to/kernel_file : Set the kernel file used for this boot, and add many cmdline parameters that are supported by the kernel;  
For example: Init=/path/to/init, selinux= 0 
boot:   boot boot selected kernel;

to start the system manually on the GRUB command line interface:
grub> Root (hd#,#)
grub> kernel/vmlinuz-version-release ro Root=/dev/device
Grub> initrd/initramfs-version-release.img
grub> Boot

Grub configuration file

Configuration file:/boot/grub/grub.conf
Configuration items:

default =# : Set the default Start menu item, menu item (title) number starting from 0,  
timeout=# : Specifies the length of the menu item Wait option selection,  
splashimage= indicates the menu background picture path (hd#,#)/path/to/xpm_ Pic_file)  
hiddenmenu: hide menu;  
password [–md5] STRING:   Menu edit authentication;
title title: defines the menu item "title", which can occur more than once;

Root (hd#,#):grub finds the device partition where the Stage2 and kernel files are located; "root" for grub;
kernel: booting the kernel
initrd kernel-matched Ramfs files;
password [–md5] STRING: authenticates when the selected kernel or operating system is started;
Encrypted passwords can be used:
Grub-md5-crypt command

Grub Installation and Repair

• Installation FIX: Grub-install

Instance

Note: –root-directory must specify the top level directory where boot is located

#mount/dev/sdb1/mnt/boot
#grub-install--root-directory=/mnt/dev/sdb2
Probing devices to guess BIOS drives. This could take a long time.
/dev/mapper/vg_centos6-lv_root does not has any corresponding BIOS drive.
# ls/mnt/boot/
Grub
# ls/mnt/boot/grub/
Device.map ffs_stage1_5 minix_stage1_5 stage2 xfs_stage1_5
E2fs_stage1_5 iso9660_stage1_5 reiserfs_stage1_5 ufs2_stage1_5
Fat_stage1_5 jfs_stage1_5 stage1 vstafs_stage1_5

• Install fix : Grub command

# Grub

Grub Single user and rescue mode single user mode (password cracking)

Enter single-user mode:
(1) Edit the Grub menu (select the title to edit, then use the e command);
(2) attach after selected kernel
