Line 186:
If you are looking for a ready-made floppy image with GRUB already installed, such has been set up by MartinBaute, and is available from the following mirrors:
 
* RDOS project at http://www.rdos.net/rdos/floppy.img and http://www.rdos.net/rdos/grub.iso (GRUB 0.97) [broken link]
* LibOSDK project at http://download.berlios.de/libosdk/fd.img.bz2 (GRUB 0.96) [broken link]
* Clicker project at http://sourceforge.net/projects/clicker/files/miscellaneous/GRUB%20bootdisk%20(by%20Solar)/solar_grub_disk.zip/download (GRUB 0.95)
* Ubuntu "grub-rescue-pc" package at http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/i386/grub-rescue-pc/download (GRUB2 2.00) [broken link]
 
The images have GRUB stage1 / stage2 and an empty config file set up, so all you have to do is adding your binaries and editing the config file (see the [http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual GRUB manual] for details).
Line 196:
 
The Ubuntu "grub-rescue-pc" package is GRUB2, and has floppy, CDROM, and USB images.
 
== Pre-made Images to test your code with ==
 
The following is a list of pre-made images of various partitioning schemes and file systems.
 
The purpose of this list is to include images for testing your partitioning and file system code. In other words, can your code find and mount the given partitions/file systems on these images.
 
This is not a 'vanity' list, a list to simply add your image file. The ideal purpose of this list is for images with intentionally numerous partitions and/or partitioning schemes, and other types of images. However, images with single partitions are allowed. Please make sure--to the best of your knowledge--the partitioning scheme and file systems are correctly implemented before adding to this list. The intent is for others to '''test their code on your image''', not to '''test your image with their code.'''
 
You are welcome to add your image URL, but please keep in mind the purpose of this list.
