How to achieve hard disk boot on the bootable disk? Just like many GHOST CDs, there is a menu for hard disk boot. Can this be achieved under DOS, or what software support is required?

Using GRUB as a boot image is a bit complicated. For simplicity, use easyboot.
boot 80 (boot from the first hard disk)
boot 0 (boot from the floppy disk)

Heheh, the solution given by the person above is a bit complicated. Have you heard of Jo.sys? It's a file of about 2K. Put it into your .img file, and you can choose to boot from the hard disk when starting up.
