 16 Invoking grub-install
 ************************
 
 The program `grub-install' installs GRUB on your drive using the grub
 shell ( Invoking the grub shell). You must specify the device
 name on which you want to install GRUB, like this:
 
      grub-install INSTALL_DEVICE
 
    The device name INSTALL_DEVICE is an OS device name or a GRUB device
 name.
 
    `grub-install' accepts the following options:
 
 `--help'
      Print a summary of the command-line options and exit.
 
 `--version'
      Print the version number of GRUB and exit.
 
 `--force-lba'
      Force GRUB to use LBA mode even for a buggy BIOS. Use this option
      only if your BIOS doesn't work properly in LBA mode even though it
      supports LBA mode.
 
 `--root-directory=DIR'
      Install GRUB images under the directory DIR instead of the root
      directory. This option is useful when you want to install GRUB
      into a separate partition or a removable disk. Here is an example
      in which you have a separate "boot" partition which is mounted on
      `/boot':
 
           grub-install --root-directory=/boot hd0
 
 `--grub-shell=FILE'
      Use FILE as the grub shell. You can append arbitrary options to
      FILE after the file name, like this:
 
           grub-install --grub-shell="grub --read-only" /dev/fd0
 
 `--recheck'
      Recheck the device map, even if `/boot/grub/device.map' already
      exists.
 
      This option is unreliable and its use is strongly discouraged.
