Not a bug, not even a problem - just curious.
I understand what the device.map is and how to specify it, but I have yet
to come across something that uses it; by which I mean, something such as
a subcommand whose syntax includes a reference to a device in unix /dev/xxx
form and then reverse-looks up that unix device name in device.map to get
the BIOS name; or a subcommand which accepts the BIOS form and then needs
for some reason (what?) to find the unix name.
I guess maybe it's used when running the unix command grub? Since then the
unix devices do exist. But I also guess it's never used when grub runs
stand-alone from initial boot?
