Is it 99, or 100% ? I think the only case we have left is when user does: grub-install "(hd0)" instead of: grub-install /dev/sda and IMHO we should deprecate this syntax so users will stop assuming GRUB will guess "(hd0)" as the first BIOS drive. However, I think disk/host.c still needs device.map only to know which devices have to be registered. -- Robert Millan The DRM opt-in fallacy: "Your data belongs to us.
