@var{speed} is the transmission speed; default is 9600. @var{word} and

be in the range 5-8 and stop bits are 1 or 2. Default is 8 data bits

This command is fairly complex, and you should not use this command
unless you are familiar with GRUB. In short, it will perform a full
install presuming the Stage 2 or Stage 1.5@footnote{They're loaded the
bitmap even if they do have the support. So GRUB provides a solution to
ignore the wrong bitmap, that is, the option @option{--force-lba}. Don't
use this option if you know that your BIOS doesn't have LBA support.

+@strong{Caution3:} You must specify the option @option{--stage2} in the

+resides. The argument should be the file name in your operating system.
