+While [Neal's install guide](http://web.walfield.org/papers/hurd-installation-guide/english/hurd-install-guide.html) is very good it does not have complete information regarding the GRUB boot loader. The syntax is also different from Lilo's and so to scratch my own itch I'm creating this quick reference. The [Grub manual](http://www.gnu.org/manual/grub/html_mono/grub.html) is another good reference.
