How to use GRUB to boot an IMG file larger than 2.88M? I heard that CHS parameters need to be added, but how to get these parameters?

title Run Full Chinese DOS Boot Disk!
root (hd0,0)
kernel (hd0,0)/boot/grub/memdisk.gz c=555 h=2 s=18 floppy
initrd (hd0,0)/boot/grub/Max.IMG c=555 h=2 s=18 floppy
The above is a part of the menu.lst in MAXDOS. According to its writing, I failed! May I ask what the correct method is?

Your method is effective for IMG files below 2.88M, but it doesn't work for files above 2.88M!

For IMG files larger than 2.88M, you need to add CHS parameters, and you can get this here!

Now the current grub can do without the chs parameter, and you can use the built-in memdisk!

For a 2.88M floppy image, try changing to the following content:
title Run All-Chinese DOS Boot Disk!
root (hd0,0)
kernel (hd0,0)/boot/grub/memdisk.gz
initrd (hd0,0)/boot/grub/Max.IMG c=80 h=2 s=36
There is a software Gmeditor, a GRUB menu editor, which can obtain the CHS parameters of the floppy image.
