[lfs-support] grub-mkdevicemap no more?

2012-07-22 Thread Gordon Findlay
The grub-mkdevicemap utility seems to have disappeared from GRUB-2.00.

This from the NEWS file:

* grub-mkdevicemap removed. Now all devices are detected on invocation of
  any grub utility.

It is referenced in sections 6.47, 8.4 of version SVN-20120719

Is there an alternative utility to achieve the same effect? A few minutes
search didn't turn anything up, and I didn't need the information, since I
already had it from the last build, so I pressed on.

I thought I checked that and found it, but on review I see it's not 
there.  I'll address this in the book later today.
