[SOLVED] How to debug a boot loader?

Issue

I debugged small programs using gdb.

I have source code of GRUB. Second stage of GRUB is written in C. Can I debug it using gdb ?

Is it possible to debug a boot loader ? If yes, then how ?

Solution

1. I would check out bochs
2. You can also use gdb with bochs
3. OSDev has a wealth of information on debugging a bootloader
