Super Grub2 Disk
Super Grub2 Disk is free boot media for helping start operating systems that will not boot normally. Its Everything option detects most operating systems, while Everything plus extends the search to special devices or filesystems. Manual boot choices cover operating systems, GRUB2 and GRUB legacy configuration files, core.img, and bootable ISOs. The site lists Windows, GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, EFI files, and Mac OS X/Darwin as supported targets. Extra GRUB2 functions include LVM, RAID, PATA, encrypted LUKS and geli volumes, and serial terminal support. Downloads include USB and CD-ROM bootable images, standalone EFI images, and source code. The stable download page describes its recommended multi-architecture USB image as Secure Boot enabled and the classic USB image as Secure Boot non enabled. It publishes MD5, SHA1, and SHA256 checksums for release files, and lists version 2.06s4 dated July 30, 2024. Documentation and a forum are linked for use questions.
