Freeldr can now be loaded as a "multiboot kernel" by multiboot compliant
bootstrap loaders  like Grub. To load FreeLoader from Grub use something
like this:

title ReactOS
	root (hd0,0)
	kernel /freeldr.sys

You can also override settings in the [FREELOADER] section of freeldr.ini by
passing them on the command like, like this:

title ReactOS
	root (hd0,0)
	kernel /freeldr.sys DefaultOS=ReactOS TimeOut=0

title ReactOS (Debug)
	root (hd0,0)
	kernel /freeldr.sys DefaultOS=ReactOS_Debug TimeOut=0

After selecting "ReactOS" from the Grub menu you won't have to make another
selection on the freeldr menu because of the "TimeOut=0"
