I am having some trouble installing GRUB on my floppy disk. First, concatenate stage1 and stage 2 into grub.raw. Then I used RAWRITE to put it on my floppy disc. I copied stage1 and stage2 onto a second disk (A:\boot\grub). I booted up grub from the first disk. I ejected the disk and replaced it with the second. I typed in the following command:
setup (fd0)
It didn't work: I got an error:
Disk read error
What should I do? Please help!!!
GRUB Problem
Re:GRUB Problem
Are you sure that's what you did it sounds right? An easy way would be to download a grub image from somewhere. There's one lurking somewhere at osdev.neopages.net and there must be others elsewhere. You need to edit the menu.lst file to your requirements. You may have seen it but there is a GRUB tutorial at osdev.neopages.net as well
Re:GRUB Problem
You can get a pre-made GRUB floppy image(FAT12 formatted) here:

The error you are receiving sounds like the version of GRUB you are using wasn't compiled with the support for the FS the floppy is formatted in.
