Quoting Simon Kitching, who wrote the following on Sat, 17 Apr 2010:

Hi All,

Just FYI, I've written up what I've learned about Grub during the last
few weeks and put it up here:

This is excellent -- thanks for writing this up. One difference with the current code, though. The partition naming has been changed from (hdX,Y) to (hdX,<partitiontype>Y[,...]) (i.e. (hd0,msdos1) for the first partition specified by the "dos" partition table on the first disk; (hd0,msdos1,sunpc1) means slice 0 on the Solaris partition defined by the first "dos" partition on the first drive).

 Thanks,
  --S
