1 3 OS-specific notes about grub tools
1 ************************************
1
1 On OS which have device nodes similar to Unix-like OS GRUB tools use the
1 OS name. E.g. for GNU/Linux:
1
1 # grub2-install /dev/sda
1
1 On AROS we use another syntax. For volumes:
1
1 //:<volume name>
1
1 E.g.
1
1 //:DH0
1
1 For disks we use syntax:
1 //:<driver name>/unit/flags
1
1 E.g.
1
1 # grub2-install //:ata.device/0/0
1
1 On Windows we use UNC path. For volumes it's typically
1
1 \\?\Volume{<GUID>}
1 \\?\<drive letter>:
1
1 E.g.
1
1 \\?\Volume{17f34d50-cf64-4b02-800e-51d79c3aa2ff}
1 \\?\C:
1
1 For disks it's
1
1 \\?\PhysicalDrive<number>
1
1 E.g.
1
1 # grub2-install \\?\PhysicalDrive0
1
1 Beware that you may need to further escape the backslashes depending
1 on your shell.

1 When compiled with cygwin support then cygwin drive names are
1 automatically when needed. E.g.
1
1 # grub2-install /dev/sda
