*** New Feature of Relative Path Support ***
******************************************************************************
Use the `root' or `rootnoverify' command to specify the `working directory'.
For example:
root (hd0,0)/boot/grub
This specifies that the working dir is (hd0,0)/boot/grub. So all subsequent
filenames of the form "/..." will actually refer to (hd0,0)/boot/grub/...
That is to say:
cat /menu.lst
will be equivalent to
cat (hd0,0)/boot/grub/menu.lst
******************************************************************************
*** Notation For The Current Root Device ***
******************************************************************************
The notation `()' can be used to access the current root device. You may use
`find --set-root ...' to set the current root device, but the find command
does not set the `working dir' of the root device. In this case you should
use `()' to set the working dir after the find command:
root ()/boot/grub
Update 2008-05-01:
FIND can also set the `working directory' now. For example:
find --set-root=/tmp /boot/grub/menu.lst
It is equivalent to this pair of commands:
find --set-root /boot/grub/menu.lst
root ()/tmp
