This manual is very excellent.

I believe you can also get it in PDF format - I printed it out over 3  
years ago and still occasionally refer to it. How I miss my former  
employers' printer which would fold & stable paper to give A4 & A5  
booklets.

The GRUB manual is as good as lots of books you'd pay $$$ for.

I don't know. I think the overview is pretty clear <http:// 
www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#Overview>, and leads into  
the remainder of the documentation quite well.
