|
+Booting a NetBSD kernel from GRUB is also relatively easy: first set
|
|
+GRUB's root device, then load the kernel and the modules, and finally
|
|
+run @command{boot}.
|
|
+
|
|
+@enumerate
|
|
+@item
|
|
+Set GRUB's root device to the partition holding the NetBSD root file
|
|
+system. For a disk with a NetBSD disk label, this is usually the first
|
|
+partition (a:). In that case, and assuming that the partition is on the
|
|
+first hard disk, set GRUB's root device as follows:
|
|
+
|
|
+@example
|
|
+grub> @kbd{insmod part_bsd}
|
|
+grub> @kbd{set root=(hd0,netbsd1)}
|
|
+@end example
|
|
+
|
|
+For a disk with a GUID Partition Table (GPT), and assuming that the
|
|
+NetBSD root partition is the third GPT partition, do this:
|
|
+
|
|
+@example
|
|
+grub> @kbd{insmod part_gpt}
|
|
+grub> @kbd{set root=(hd0,gpt3)}
|
|
+@end example
|
|
+
|
|
+@item
|
|
+Load the kernel using the command @command{knetbsd}:
|
|
+
|
|
+@example
|
|
+grub> @kbd{knetbsd /netbsd}
|
|
+@end example
|
|
+
|
|
+Various options may be given to @command{knetbsd}. These options are,
|
|
+for the most part, the same as in the NetBSD boot loader. For instance,
|
|
+to boot the system in single-user mode and with verbose messages, do
|
|
+this:
|
|
+
|
|
+@example
|
|
+grub> @kbd{knetbsd /netbsd -s -v}
|
|
+@end example
|
|
+
|
|
+@item
|
|
+If needed, load kernel modules with the command
|
|
+@command{knetbsd_module_elf}. A typical example is the module for the
|
|
+root file system:
|
|
+
|
|
+@example
|
|
+grub> @kbd{knetbsd_module_elf /stand/amd64/6.0/modules/ffs/ffs.kmod}
|
|
+@end example
|
|
+
|
|
+@item
|
|
+Finally, run the command @command{boot} (@pxref{boot}).
