[09-29-05 12:40]: Well, with me it is hd3,2. What I am looking for is not so much a way to calculate it yourself, but a way to determine it automaticaly, something like:
# foo /dir/bar hd3,2
or # foo /dev/hdf3 hd3,2
Or something similar.
cat /etc/fstab
No, that is not correct. That does not hold any information about what grub has. Where whould a program or script get the (hd3,2) info from that? I think I am not being clear. I am looking for a command or program or script that translates either /media/data or /dev/hdf3 to the correct root information. I am able to calculate it myself. I just want the computer to do it for me. A command that has /dev/hdf3 as input and hd3,2 as output (or whatever is correct) houghi -- Quote correct (NL) http://www.briachons.org/art/quote/ Zitiere richtig (DE) http://www.afaik.de/usenet/faq/zitieren Quote correctly (EN) http://www.netmeister.org/news/learn2quote.html
