NetBSD

GRUB can load NetBSD a.out and ELF directly, follow these steps:

1. Set GRUB's root device with @command{root} (see section root).
2. Load the kernel with @command{kernel} (see section kernel). You should append the ugly option @option{--type=netbsd}, if you want to load an ELF kernel, like this:

   grub> kernel --type=netbsd /netbsd-elf
   

3. Run @command{boot} (see section boot).

For now, however, GRUB doesn't allow you to pass kernel parameters, so it may be better to chain-load it instead, for more information please see section Load another boot loader to boot unsupported operating systems.
