Super Grub2 Disk
The primary purpose of Super GRUB2 Disk is to help you boot into an OS whose bootloader is broken.
Second, and almost as important, is to be a tool to learn more about GRUB2 and the booting process.
Difference between Super GRUB Disk and Super GRUB2 Disk
GRUB2 is a complete rewrite of GRUB, and Super GRUB2 Disk is a complete rewrite as well.
As Super GRUB2 Disk uses GRUB2, the differences between GRUB Legacy and GRUB2 also apply to the different versions of Super GRUB Disk.
Perhaps the most notable difference between Super GRUB Disk based on grub legacy and Super GRUB2 Disk is that Super GRUB2 Disk does not write to the disk at all, and so cannot rewrite the MBR. Super GRUB2 Disk can only be used to boot a broken system, it cannot fix it directly. Though once a system is booted, re-installing grub is usually just a matter of running “grub-install /dev/sda”.
