Has anyone seen a paper that is down to earth and uses

I myself have been wanting to find something like cookbook format.
Did you see this? http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html,
which
is dated May 2005. BTW this doc has the solution of a hidden partition
problem that
someone had earlier.

No sorry this is not what I wanted. It is written by the Grub
people and it is all about how grub works. I want one where how grub
works is provided by experiments that work. And why does /devsda6 =
hd(0,5)?
Karl
It's the primary drive. The numbering scheme starts as zero so
0,1,2,3,4,5 is used. They are different programs with different
methods of identifying hard drives.
Jim I know that but what I am looking for is an already written paper
that covers the use of grub. So far nothing has shown up.
