longDescription =
'' GNU GRUB is a Multiboot boot loader. It was derived from GRUB, GRand
Unified Bootloader, which was originally designed and implemented by
Erich Stefan Boleyn.
Briefly, boot loader is the first software program that runs when a
computer starts. It is responsible for loading and transferring
control to the operating system kernel software (such as the Hurd or
the Linux). The kernel, in turn, initializes the rest of the
operating system (e.g., GNU).
