Hello,
   How do i configure my grub so that i can start
running a program of my intrest without loading the
operating system. In the info page of grub it is given
that any elf or a.out file can be loaded and run.
I tried the following thing..
I appended the line that starts with kernel in grub
the following "init=/usr/bin/mplayer /song.mp3"

but once i booted the mplayer started but it said
could not read the file song.mp3 though i have a copy
of the file in root folder.
