Linux could directly boot from floppy in the past, but that feature has been obsoleted and removed in 2003 - see http://lkml.org/lkml/2003/1/29/197
Afaik, you always need a bootloader to boot Linux nowadays.
Only exception coming to my mind is booting a UserModeLinux kernel. That one can directly boot from the commandline.

>From Dragoslav Zaric <>
Can you boot linux without GRUB or LILO loader
if it is only OS on your computer ?
I mean does kernel image can boot it-self and if can,
where you should put it ?
thanks
