Synopsis
device drive fileSpecify a file to be used as a BIOS drive. This command is useful for creating a disk image and/or for fixing the drives when GRUB fails to determine them correctly. The device command is available only from within the grub shell, not from the native command line. For example:
grub>device (fd0) /floppy-imagegrub>device (hd0) /dev/sd0
