GNU GRUB (short for GNU GRand Unified Bootloader) is a boot loader package from the GNU Project. GRUB (shortened form of GNU GRUB) is the reference implementation of the Multiboot Specification, which enables a user to have multiple operating systems on their computer, and choose which one to run when the computer starts. GRUB can be used to select from different kernel images available on a particular operating system's partitions, as well as pass boot-time parameters to such kernels. GNU GRUB was developed from a package called the Grand Unified Bootloader (a play on grand unified theory). It is predominantly used on Unix-like systems. The GNU operating system uses GNU GRUB as its boot loader, as do most Linux distributions. Solaris has used GRUB as its boot loader on x86 systems starting with the Solaris 10 1/06 release.
