 First, the root file system needs to be set. GRUB uses a partition nomenclature that is a bit different from either GNU or GNU/Linux: both IDE and SCSI drives are named `(hdN)`. `N` is the drive number (zero based) as reported by the BIOS. That is, GRUB makes no distinction between IDE and SCSI disks. The partitions, like the disks, are also indexed numerically from zero: `(hdN,M)`. If this sounds bad, relax: GRUB is also helpful.

 Thus, continuing with the above example and assuming that the first drive in the master on the secondary controller, we would have:

 Next, the root file system server and the exec server must be loaded. This is done using GRUB's boot module capability. The parameters are the semantics by which the kernel passes some important values to the servers.
