I'm trying to get to the GRUB command shell so that I can chainload into Windows 7, which I blocked my way into when I installed grub. On the GRUB wiki page, it only talks about what to do once you're in the GRUB command shell, not what to do to get to the shell in the first place. How do you access the GRUB shell from a normal Arch installation? Thanks!

Sorry, should have been more explicit. Is there a way of doing it once booted into Arch?

Which grub? I remember I could test the grub theme (booting sequence to grub menu and beyond) with what is now grub-legacy under opensuse using qemu. I do not recall going into grubs shell, but that should have been also possible. If changing anything from the shell inside qemu would work, I do not know.

Why do you want to do this?

@Emeres: newer grub.
Sorry for the late reply. I wanted to do it because if I could access the grub shell from inside Arch, I could be using online documentation from inside of Arch at the same time that I was configuring grub. I fixed the problem that I was having that made me want to be able to get the grub shell from inside Arch. Thank you all for your help!
