Using info from emacs (C-h i) is very convenient (unless, of course,
that one finds emacs hard to deal with).

Copied from the info file:
-- Command: map to_drive from_drive
Map the drive FROM_DRIVE to the drive TO_DRIVE. This is necessary
when you chain-load some operating systems, such as DOS, if such
an OS resides at a non-first drive. Here is an example:
grub> map (hd0) (hd1)
grub> map (hd1) (hd0)
The example exchanges the order between the first hard disk and the
second hard disk. See also DOS/Windows.
HTH,

Thank you, I still hadn't found it. The explanation raises more
questions. I know a few Emacs commands but not enough to use it
effectively.
Tnx.
