grub: linux16

 
 16.3.39 linux16
 ---------------
 
  -- Command: linux16 file ...
      Load a Linux kernel image from FILE in 16-bit mode.  The rest of
      the line is passed verbatim as the "kernel command-line".  Any
      initrd must be reloaded after using this command (⇒
      initrd16).
 
      The kernel will be booted using the traditional 16-bit boot
      protocol.  As well as bypassing problems with 'vga=' described in
      ⇒linux, this permits booting some other programs that
      implement the Linux boot protocol for the sake of convenience.
 
      This command is only available on x86 systems.
