yes, a list of packages all containing the word Grub will appear with a short description of each and once you have found the package you want then type this:

sudo apt-get install [packagename]

for multiple packages:

sudo apt-get install [package name] [package name] [package name] and so on...

all without the [ ].

If apt does not work then use yum instead of apt.
Know what you can do.

you can even type:

sudo apt-cache search cracker

or something like that and you will find a few cracking tools, like jtr, medussa and pdfcrack.
