Hello,

 

I have no experience with grub and little experience with Linux, but would
like to install GRUB 2 on a HD with Windows XP on the first partition and
Windows 7 on the second partition. There is no Linux on the HD. To install
it I use an Ubuntu 9.04 Live CD. I read the GNU GRUB 2 Manual, but there was
too little information for me to succeed installing GRUB 2. My main problem
is that I have not enough information on the meaning of the parameters from
grub-setup -h, and grub-install -h, and if it is possible at all, to install
GRUB 2 on a HD with no Linux.

 

I have the following questions,

*        Where can I find an better explanation of the parameters and/or a
better manual.

*        Would it help to read the manual from GRUB Legacy or is GRUB 2
completely different?

*        I use apt-get to install GRUB 2. Does this work with a Live CD?

*        Can you give me the sequence of commands that I should execute to
install grub from I live CD on a Windows only system.

 

Any help would be appreciated,

 

Thanks Electuur.
