Well, though "fs" popped up in the mailing-list a good while back, it 
wasn't incoporated until last week, so it's new.

Yeah "chain.c32 [boot][[" "|","]<partition>] [options]" might be more 
appropriate.

The only exception where "drivename" might not be the name of the drive 
to boot would be using "guid:" or "label:" or "fs".  For the "guid:" 
case, it still might specify the GUID of a GPT drive.  Does "drivename" 
give a little more meaning than "argument" to a reader?

Good point.

Why?  People use "chain.c32 hd1,2".
