+@deffn Command chainloader [@option{--force}] file
+Load @var{file} as a chain-loader. Like any other file loaded by the
+filesystem code, it can use the blocklist notation (@pxref{Block list
+syntax}) to grab the first sector of the current partition with @samp{+1}.
+If you specify the option @option{--force}, then load @var{file} forcibly,
+whether it has a correct signature or not. This is required when you want to
+load a defective boot loader, such as SCO UnixWare 7.1.

+16-bit mode, and set the appropriate parameters in the Linux setup area in
+memory.  This may only be used after the @command{linux16} command
+(@pxref{linux16}) has been run.  See also @ref{GNU/Linux}.

+after using this command (@pxref{initrd}).
+
+On x86 systems, the kernel will be booted using the 32-bit boot protocol.
+Note that this means that the @samp{vga=} boot option will not work; if you
+want to set a special video mode, you will need to use GRUB commands such as
+@samp{set gfxpayload=1024x768} or @samp{set gfxpayload=keep} (to keep the
+same mode as used in GRUB) instead.  GRUB can automatically detect some uses
+of @samp{vga=} and translate them to appropriate settings of
+@samp{gfxpayload}.  The @command{linux16} command (@pxref{linux16}) avoids

+be reloaded after using this command (@pxref{initrd16}).
+
+The kernel will be booted using the traditional 16-bit boot protocol.  As
