Version 3.1 released. In this version:
This version at last allows to get rid of the process of loader installation in OS Linux when using file systems Ext2 or Ext3! It is sufficient to convert the loader by applied utility, place the resulting file to the root directory of boot disk and prepare disk for booting by the boot.exe utility (the preparing needs to be performed only once). For the first time in Linux history the installation of the loader became most friendly and the boot disk may be just copied file-by-file without loosing the capability of booting from it! You may read more details in description. Download and try. http://goncharov.pp.ru/en/osboot.htm |

If you use sys-grubldr-2.0 with both MBR and VBR boot loaders from last Yoda's package (3.1) you can use loader kernel without patching it (see readme.txt). You can use this rescue CD image without rewriting MBR as well. Just install one of last VBR boot loaders and boot from CD (image). |

In this version the most popular free second stage loaders and the FreeDOS kernel are successfully supported. The specs for the first stage loading seem to be convenient enough and are supposed to freeze. Download and try. http://goncharov.pp.ru/en/osboot.htm |

I found and fixed a serious bug in exFAT support. If somebody plans to use this tool for exFAT, I strongly reccommend to re-download archive. I decided not to change version number for one bugfix. |
