此文主要是记录了一下，基于grub 0.97等老版本做Bochs镜像的操作流程，以备后用。该文与前一篇博文总体上面就细节上稍微有些许差异，制作镜像的整体步骤相同。原本有前一篇博文就已经够了，但是个人在研究Linux内核启动的过程中，有部分细节不太清晰，后来发现是GRUB发生了变化的缘故。grub 0.97及之前的版本可以称之为GRUB Legacy，大约2002年左右，Yoshinori K. Okuji在PUPA重写了GRUB，使它更清晰，安全，健壮，更强大，PUPA最后把它重命名为GRUB2，2005年发行了grub legacy(0.97)，而2007 GNU/Linux 开始在小范围内使用GRUB2，到2009年底大多数主要的发行版都开始默认安装GRUB2。
实验环境：
Vmware + Redhat 5.5
grub 0.97
以下是实验操作记录：
1、创建磁盘镜像
[root@localhost ~]# dd if=/dev/zero of=disk.img count=$((63*16*20))
20160+0 records in
20160+0 records out
10321920 bytes (10 MB) copied, 0.161663 seconds, 63.8 MB/s
注：count是cylinders、heads和每个track的sector数的乘积；
2、磁盘上建立分区表信息
[root@localhost ~]# fdisk disk.img
last_lba(): I don’t know how to handle files with mode 81a4
Device contains neither a valid DOS partition table, nor Sun, SGI or OSF disklabel
Building a new DOS disklabel. Changes will remain in memory only,
until you decide to write them. After that, of course, the previous
content won’t be recoverable.
You must set cylinders.
You can do this from the extra functions menu.
Warning: invalid flag 0x0000 of partition table 4 will be corrected by w(rite)
Command (m for help): x
——进入专家功能模式
Expert command (m for help): c

Expert command (m for help): h
Number of heads (1-256, default 255): 16
——设置heads，其中参数16
Expert command (m for help): s
Number of sectors (1-63, default 63): 63
——设置每个track的sector数，其中参数63
Warning: setting sector offset for DOS compatiblity
Expert command (m for help): r
——返回至普通模式
Command (m for help): n
——创建新分区

——创建基础分区，分区数为1

——设置起始和结束的cylinder柱面号
Command (m for help): a
Partition number (1-4): 1
——设置可引导的分区
Command (m for help): w
——将分区表写入磁盘并退出
The partition table has been altered!
Calling ioctl() to re-read partition table.
WARNING: Re-reading the partition table failed with error 25: Inappropriate ioctl for device.
The kernel still uses the old table.
The new table will be used at the next reboot.
Syncing disks.
注：每道扇区数63，磁头数16是基本固定的，据说bochs只识别这个，改天有空了再研究一下，至于扩大容量可以修改柱面数；
3、检查刚才的操作结果
[root@localhost ~]# hexdump -s 0x1BE -x -n 16 disk.img
00001be 0180 0001 0f83 133f 003f 0000 4e81 0000
00001ce
[root@localhost ~]# fdisk -l -u disk.img
last_lba(): I don’t know how to handle files with mode 81a4
You must set cylinders.
You can do this from the extra functions menu.
Disk disk.img: 0 MB, 0 bytes
16 heads, 63 sectors/track, 0 cylinders, total 0 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
disk.img1 * 63 20159 10048+ 83 Linux
4、安装磁盘设备
[root@localhost ~]# losetup -o $((63*512)) /dev/loop0 disk.img
[root@localhost ~]# df
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00

/dev/scd0 2884990 2884990 0 100% /media/RHEL_5.5 Source
5、把磁盘格式化为fat格式
[root@localhost ~]# mkdosfs /dev/loop0
mkdosfs 2.11 (12 Mar 2005)
Loop device does not match a floppy size, using default hd params
[root@localhost ~]# hexdump -s 0x1BE -x -n 16 disk.img
00001be 0180 0001 0f83 133f 003f 0000 4e81 0000
00001ce
注：mkdosfs好像没法改变格式，所以还需要fdisk来进行格式化（好像前一篇博文没注意这点，迟些再专门研究一下）；
[root@localhost ~]# fdisk disk.img
last_lba(): I don’t know how to handle files with mode 81a4
You must set cylinders.
You can do this from the extra functions menu.
Command (m for help): t
——切换分区的系统ID
Selected partition 1
Hex code (type L to list codes): L

——将操作写入的磁盘中
The partition table has been altered!
Calling ioctl() to re-read partition table.
WARNING: Re-reading the partition table failed with error 25: Inappropriate ioctl for device.
The kernel still uses the old table.
The new table will be used at the next reboot.
WARNING: If you have created or modified any DOS 6.x
partitions, please see the fdisk manual page for additional
information.
Syncing disks.
注：再次检查刚才的操作；
[root@localhost ~]# hexdump -s 0x1BE -x -n 16 disk.img
00001be 0180 0001 0f04 133f 003f 0000 4e81 0000
00001ce
6、挂载磁盘
[root@localhost ~]# mount -o loop /dev/loop0 /mnt
7、安装grub
[root@localhost ~]# mkdir -p /mnt/boot/grub
[root@localhost ~]# pwd
/root
[root@localhost ~]# find / -name stage*
/usr/share/grub/i386-redhat/stage2_eltorito
/usr/share/grub/i386-redhat/stage2
/usr/share/grub/i386-redhat/stage1
/boot/grub/stage2
/boot/grub/stage1
[root@localhost ~]# find / -name fat_stage*
/usr/share/grub/i386-redhat/fat_stage1_5
/boot/grub/fat_stage1_5
[root@localhost ~]# cd /usr/share/grub/i386-redhat/
[root@localhost i386-redhat]# ls
e2fs_stage1_5 iso9660_stage1_5 reiserfs_stage1_5 stage2_eltorito xfs_stage1_5
fat_stage1_5 jfs_stage1_5 stage1 ufs2_stage1_5
ffs_stage1_5 minix_stage1_5 stage2 vstafs_stage1_5
[root@localhost i386-redhat]# cp ./stage1 ./stage
stage1 stage2 stage2_eltorito
[root@localhost i386-redhat]# cp ./stage1 ./stage2
stage2 stage2_eltorito
[root@localhost i386-redhat]# cp ./stage1 ./fat_stage1_5 ./stage2 /mnt/boot/grub/
[root@localhost i386-redhat]# vi /mnt/boot/grub/
fat_stage1_5 stage1 stage2
8、编辑grub引导信息：
[root@localhost i386-redhat]# vi /mnt/boot/grub/grub.conf
[root@localhost i386-redhat]# cp /mnt/boot/grub/grub.conf /mnt/boot/grub/menu.lst
内容：
default=0
timeout=500
title=OS2Bochs
root (hd0,0)
kernel /kernel.bin
[root@localhost i386-redhat]# umount /mnt
[root@localhost i386-redhat]# losetup -d /dev/loop0
[root@localhost i386-redhat]# pwd
/usr/share/grub/i386-redhat
9、初始化光盘映像的grub
[root@localhost i386-redhat]# grub –device-map=/dev/null
[root@localhost i386-redhat]# cd
[root@localhost ~]# ls
anaconda-ks.cfg grub-0.97-13.5.src.rpm scsrun.log
Desktop install.log VMwareTools-9.6.1-1378637.tar.gz
disk.img install.log.syslog vmware-tools-distrib
[root@localhost ~]# grub –device-map=/dev/null
grub的操作记录：
[ Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported. For the first word, TAB
lists possible command completions. Anywhere else TAB lists the possible
completions of a device/filename.]
grub> device (hd0) disk.img
grub> geometry (hd0)
drive 0x80: C/H/S = 620/128/63, The number of sectors = 20160, disk.img
Partition num: 0, Filesystem type is fat, partition type 0x4
grub> geometry (hd0) 20 16 63
drive 0x80: C/H/S = 20/16/63, The number of sectors = 20160, disk.img

Checking if “/boot/grub/stage2” exists… yes
Checking if “/boot/grub/fat_stage1_5” exists… yes

succeeded
Running “install /boot/grub/stage1 (hd0) (hd0)1+15 p (hd0,0)/boot/grub/stage2 /boot/grub/gru
b.conf”… succeeded
Done.
grub> quit
——退出
10、将分区挂载到loop0上面，并将Linux内核安装进去
[root@localhost ~]# losetup -o 32256 /dev/loop0 disk.img
[root@localhost ~]# mount -o loop /dev/loop0 /mnt
[root@localhost ~]# find / -name vmlinuz*
/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-194.el5
[root@localhost ~]# cp /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-194.el5 /mnt/kernel.bin
[root@localhost ~]# ls /mnt/
boot kernel.bin
11、将设备卸载
[root@localhost ~]# umount /mnt
[root@localhost ~]# losetup -d /dev/loop0
由此，磁盘镜像做完。
12、此外Bochs的配置修改为
megs: 32
romimage: file=$BXSHARE/BIOS-bochs-latest
vgaromimage: file=$BXSHARE/VGABIOS-lgpl-latest
ata0-master: type=disk, path=”disk0.img”, cylinders=20, heads=16, spt=63
boot: c
log: bochsout.txt
mouse: enabled=0
cpu: ips=15000000
clock: sync=both
