It took me half a day to install GRUB on a floppy disk. It turns out it only supports 1.44M floppy disks. I hope the instructions will be more detailed in the future.

The emulation floppy disk function of GRUB for DOS currently only supports 1.44M. It is approximately released in December, and will support all floppy disk formats.
GRUB for DOS should already be able to run under MSDOS and FreeDOS, no matter on what medium this DOS is booted: CD-ROM, floppy disk, hard disk, etc.

Okay, looking forward to your great work. How does GRUB call the image in the CD - ROM?

Currently, GRUB does not yet have the function to read CDROM disc sectors, and naturally cannot call the img file on the disc. This function will be implemented in the future, but not recently. Regarding disc-related issues, they were just discussed in this forum not long ago. The following is the relevant website:

You can see the development dynamics of GRUB for DOS in time from the following webpage:

Welcome to put forward suggestions.
