NAME

       grub-install - install GRUB on your drive

SYNOPSIS

       grub-install [OPTION] install_device

DESCRIPTION

       Install GRUB on your drive.

       -h, --help
	      print this message and exit

       -v, --version
	      print the version information and exit

       --root-directory=DIR
	      install GRUB images under the directory DIR instead of the root directory

       --grub-shell=FILE
	      use FILE as the grub shell

       --no-floppy
	      do not probe any floppy drive

       --force-lba
	      force GRUB to use LBA mode even for a buggy BIOS

       --recheck
	      probe a device map even if it already exists

       INSTALL_DEVICE can be a GRUB device name or a system device filename.

       grub-install  copies GRUB images into the DIR/boot directory specfied by --root-directory, and uses the grub shell to install grub into the
       boot sector.

       The grub source distribution carries this script to ease the installation of grub as a boot loader. In Suse Linux however,  grub  installa-
       tion  is  much  better handled by Yast; use of this script is generally discouraged and therefore unsupported. Consequently, the script has
       been renamed to grub-install.unsupported.

       In order to (re-)install grub for the currently running system, simply use Yast. For an installation aiming  at	a  differing  system,  the
       crafting  of an appropriate device.map and grub shell script is strongly advised, e.g.  "grub --batch --device-map=target-device.map < tar-
       get-grub.conf"

       your site, the command
