Manual boot choices include operating systems, GRUB2 and GRUB legacy configuration files, core.img, and bootable ISOs. Listed targets include Windows, GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, EFI files, and Mac OS X/Darwin. Extra GRUB2 capabilities cover LVM, RAID, PATA, encrypted LUKS and geli volumes, and serial terminals. Boot media include USB devices and CD-ROMs; floppy support is listed only for version 1.98s1. Downloads include USB and CD-ROM images, standalone EFI images, and source code. The stable page lists version 2.06s4, dated July 30, 2024, and publishes MD5, SHA1, and SHA256 checksums. The recommended multi-architecture USB image is Secure Boot enabled, while the classic USB image is not. The interface lists Spanish, German, French, Italian, and Malay translations.
