As the name bootloader implies it is meant to start some operating
system at boot time. What is the reason for this question?

Anyway, you first need to partition your disk (fdisk), then create a
file system (mk2efs) and mount that newly created fs somewhere. Then you
can store GRUB. But you need an operating system somewhere...
