No. The point of a two-stage loader is that you have the first stage - which can fit into one or two sectors - that loads the second stage, which in turn loads your kernel/operating system/whatever. Furthermore, you can't possibly fit that into the MBR, as the master boot record is for other purposes, it contains the partition table for hard disk drives...cotton509 wrote:Oh ok. Could i use your boot loader after editing it to load the file that needs to be loaded? Also could i fit it into the mbr?
If you can't come up with a simple bootloader yourself, or you can't follow the tutorials and write one yourself, there is no point in me giving you a reasonable bootloader (which at the moment handles PE files by the way, so you would need to modify it yourself, which may be harder to do than writing a loader from scratch).
