I managed to create a grub.conf that works [a minor miracle]. However I am interested in this. I don't see the "map" option in man grub? Info grub is hard to deal with, copied it to info.txt which produces 73 pages in an openoffice document using a font large enough that I can see ...
Using info from emacs (C-h i) is very convenient (unless, of course, that one finds emacs hard to deal with).
How do I use the "map" option?
Copied from the info file:
-- Command: map to_drive from_drive Map the drive FROM_DRIVE to the drive TO_DRIVE. This is necessary when you chain-load some operating systems, such as DOS, if such an OS resides at a non-first drive. Here is an example:
grub> map (hd0) (hd1) grub> map (hd1) (hd0)
The example exchanges the order between the first hard disk and the second hard disk. See also DOS/Windows.
