GRUB is a bootloader, for loading OSes. It cannot load a development environment. You need to load you operating system, use your development environment to write your operating system, install your operating system to a filesystem that GRUB can read, and the load it with GRUB. Look at <a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html">the GRUB documentation</a> for more information about how to boot an operating system from GRUB.
