but you are still stuck with the GRUB root command, which does not accept a label.
So I changed grub (0.97-29) to accept this:


find            /ST380011A.03
root            FILE=/ST380011A.03


and then where he finds file ST380011A.03 that is where the root will be.

Now I have a truly LABEL driven system and the drive devices can be wherever they are and I don't care...

Hugo,

I understand the "find" command and the results that it returns. But I am unable to locate any mention of the "root" command having a "FILE=" option.

So, did you modify Grub to make the "root" command have a FILE= parameter?


Right. FIND saves where it found the file and root with FILE= uses that saved info. So I don't have to specify absolute locations. I can send the diff if you tell me where.
