These are the names of partitions. The names of discs used by GRUB
are "(hd0)" for first hard disc, "(hd1)" for second hard disc, "(fd0)"
for first floppy disc, etc. If volumes are created on the discs, they also
have names, like "(hd0,0)" is the name of the first partition of (hd0), and
"(hd0,1)" is the name of the second partition of (hd0).

I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
