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