I will make a better explanation. I want to use the current feature from
search command that saves into a variable the first partition where one
file has been found.

Once I have this variable I will be able to install grub2 'stage1' into
the mbr.

So the usb problem is the following one:

   You are using the usb device as a rescue disk not as a normal linux
boot device. So you do not want to reinstall grub on the usb itself (
hd0 ) but on hd1, which it is, in fact, your first hard disk.

Can you give me a link about documentation on UUIDs I do not know what
does mean.

label gives the hard disk labels and also the cdrom label ?
