I am trying to understand the grub code (GRUB-0.97). I have a specific query regarding SMP systems. How are multiple cores handled by grub? Are multiple cores active in the grub initially or only one core is active when GRUB takes charge from the BIOS?

Also, can anyone suggest any tools to live debug the GRUB code?

Thanks in advance.
