There are two ways to specify files, by absolute file name and by
block list.
An absolute file name resembles a Unix absolute file name, using
`/' for the directory separator (not `\' as in DOS). One
example is `(hd0,0)/boot/grub/menu.lst'. This means the file
/boot/grub/menu.lst in the first partition of the first hard
disk. If you omit the device name in an absolute file name, GRUB uses
GRUB's root device implicitly. So if you set the root device to,
say, `(hd1,0)' by the command root (see root), then
/boot/kernel is the same as (hd1,0)/boot/kernel.
