The same is technically true of GPT; however, if a GPT disk includes a BIOS boot partition, GRUB 2 will store extra code in that partition.

Secondary boot loaders are where the first stage of the boot loader is installed onto a bootable partition.
二级引导加载程序是安装在可引导分区的第一阶段引导加载程序。
The first-stage boot loader scans the table, looking for the active partition; when the loader locates the partition, it loads the second-stage boot loader into RAM and invokes it.
第一阶段的引导加载程序对表进行扫描，查找活动分区；当加载程序找到分区时，就将第二阶段的引导加载程序加载到RAM中并调用它。

Some older systems have a limitation that the BIOS can boot only from a partition that is wholly located within the first 1024 cylinders of disk.
某些旧系统存在限制，BIOS仅能通过全部位于磁盘的前1024个柱面中的分区引导。
GRUB also does not require a partition to be mounted in order to configure a boot entry for it.
要为分区配置一个启动条目，GRUB不需要装载该分区。
That’s because you can’t directly boot from anywhere inside an extended partition.

In this scenario, it is possible to shutdown the AIX partition on CEC1 and boot the AIX partition on CEC2.
在这个场景中，可以关闭CEC1上的AIX分区并在CEC2上引导AIX分区。
The partition table is located in the master boot record (MBR) of a disk.
分区表位于磁盘主引导记录（MBR）之中。
A boot device can be a floppy disk, a CD-ROM, a partition on a hard disk, a device on the network, or even a USB flash memory stick.
引导设备可以是软盘、CD - ROM、硬盘上的某个分区、网络上的某个设备，甚至是usb闪存。
Your BIOS boot partition should be at least 31kb in size.
BIOS启动分区应该至少有31kb。
This means that they destroy the boot loader, so you may need to re-install GRUB after you make partition changes.
因此，在进行分区更改之后，可能需要重新安装GRUB。
You should now type root (hd0, 0) (or your equivalent) to tell Grub which partition is being used to boot from, followed by setup (hd0) to reinstall the boot loader into the disk's master boot record.
现在键入root (hd0, 0)(或者是你自己得到的返回值)，以告诉Grub该从哪个分区启动，然后键入setup (hd0)以在你的硬盘主引导记录重新安装引导程序。
If you have a PReP boot partition, use it.
如果有一个PReP引导分区，则请使用它。

To lessen the risk of getting a bad configuration for the boot loader in RHEL 4 or 5, always create a boot partition (/boot) for your system.

Some notes: if you need to create more than four partitions, remember to toggle the "Primary partition" option after creating your boot volume.
一些注意事项：如果需要创建的分区多于四个，那么请记住在创建引导卷之后切换掉“PrimaryPartition”选项。
