 102      "GRUB is a multiboot bootloader.  It is used for initially loading the
 103 kernel of an operating system and then transfering control to it. The kernel
 104 then goes on to load the rest of the operating system.  As a multiboot boot
 105 loader, GRUB handles the presence of multiple operating systems installed on
 106 the same computer; upon booting the computer, the user is presented with a
 107 menu to select one of the installed operating systems.")
