I am running potato and when I run grub, the "map" command is not
recognized.  My menu.lst has something very like the above entry
for windows, but even at the commandline:
grub> map (hd0) (hd1)

Fails with "unrecognized command".  The potato version of Grub is
.93.  The manual pages on the gnu website are for .90, older still,
and they definitely show the "map" command.  So what's going on?
In the mean time I dumped grub for lilo.  mapping works just fine there...
