Does GRUB for DOS already include the BOOTGRUB and GRLDR files [they are called "GRUB for NTLDR"]? Are bootgrub and grldr required to coexist, or is only one sufficient?

bootgrub is not heard of, is it grub.exe? GRLDR grub for do contains GRUB.exe and GRLDR files Only one of them is enough, GRLDR is GRUB for NTLDR

GRLDR is GRUB for NTLDR, is it something that needs to be downloaded separately and not included in grub4dos? Is grub4dos the same as grub for dos?

Is there never been a version without bootgrub?

In very old versions, the bootgrub file was once released. In the new version, this file is not needed, and instead, the grldr and grldr.mbr files are used.

What is the function of grldr.mbr? Let me look for it inside. 8KB? What is it used for?

Should it be used like this: c:\grldr.mbr=**** instead of c:\grldr=*******

I am the initiator of the grub4dos project. But now it is taken care of by bean. I'm not in good health and have withdrawn. However, I still care about grub4dos. I hope everyone can help bean and lighten his burden a bit.
