Multiboot Specification
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Multiboot Specification is an open standard originally created in 1995 and developed by the Free Software Foundation. The specification describes a method of loading various multiboot kernels using a single compliant boot loader. GNU Hurd and Xen both need to be booted using this method. GNU GRUB is the reference implementation used in the GNU operating system.
