10. Install GRUB. For example, to install GRUB in the master boot record (MBR) of the first disk, run
the following command:
setup (hd0)
11. Exit the GRUB shell:
quit
12. Unmount the mounted file systems and then reboot:
umount /mnt/system/dev/
umount /mnt/system/proc/
umount /mnt/system/boot/
umount /mnt/system/
reboot
13. Reconfigure the bootloader by using tools and documentation from the Linux distribution that
you use. For example, in Debian and Ubuntu, you may need to edit some commented lines in the
/boot/grub/menu.lst file and then run the update-grub script; otherwise, the changes might not
take effect.
6.3.11.2 About Windows loaders
Windows NT/2000/XP/2003
A part of the loader resides in the partition boot sector, the rest is in the files ntldr, boot.ini,
ntdetect.com, ntbootdd.sys. boot.ini is a text file that contains the loader configuration. Example:
[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional"
/noexecute=optin /fastdetect
Windows Vista/2008
A part of the loader resides in the partition boot sector, the rest is in the files bootmgr, boot\bcd. At
starting Windows, boot\bcd is mounted to the registry key HKLM \BCD00000000.

6.3.12 Recovering a vast number of files from a file backup

Applies to: Microsoft Windows Server 2003
When recovering a very large number of files at a time (hundreds of thousands or millions) from a file
backup, you might encounter the following problem:

The recovery process fails, and the message "Error reading the file" appears.

Not all of the files are recovered.
The most likely cause of the problem is an insufficient amount of memory allocated to the recovery
process by the operating system's cache manager. You can either work around this problem or
modify the registry to increase the amount of allocated memory, as described below.
To resolve the problem, do either of the following:

Recover the files as two or more groups. For example, if the problem occurs when recovering
1 million files, try recovering the first 500,000 of them and then the remaining 500,000.
