Yes.
This loads parts of ntldr.
I suspect the 1st block, but I'm not sure.
Then jumps to a place within ntldr
(ntldr is not started at position 0x0 in the file).
Seems odd,

I do find this interesting though, so if someone manages to boot ntldr
from grub, please tell us.
It would be nice enough if one could tell us exactly how MBR,
partition boot sector and ntldr interact and work, then what is
required to make ntldr find

supposing that the ntldr is called like that.
This doesn't work, since ntldr isn't a supported binary type. GRUB
refuses to load it this way.
A) Tell me if that works for you I'm interested also in loading ntldr
, and choose one of them with grub. This should give you
around 30 versions of windows, 1 of which (3 with some grub tricks) can

but if Grub could load NTLDR, I guess I'd have an answer
Hi!
Any way available to directly load ntldr? I need something to get this
thing into RAM and then execute it. Any idea not using an windows mbr
(and thus chainloading ntldr). I need a direct way.
I will try with something similar to this:
title Windows
root (hd0,0)
chainloader

Something like:

kernel /ntldr
boot
or
title Windows
