GRUB-OFPATHNAME(8)
π GRUB-OFPATHNAME β like, the manual page, bestie
okay so welcome to GRUB-OFPATHNAME(8) β¨ this one lives in the System Administration Utilities section of your man pages, and it's literally the tool that finds the OpenBOOT path for a device. short king of a manpage. we love that for it π«Ά
πΈ NAME πΈ
grub-ofpathname β find OpenBOOT path for a device π¦
no cap, that's the whole pitch. you give it a device, it gives you the OpenBOOT path. iconic behaviour.
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
grub-ofpathname DEVICE
just the one argument, bestie. DEVICE, right there, in that exact order. no flags, no little extras, no secret menu π
π DESCRIPTION π
okay so this is the part where I have to be honest with you: the DESCRIPTION section is literally empty in the original π like, nothing. blank. a vibe void. the synopsis above is genuinely all the description you're getting from this page, so that's all I'm passing along β no invented lore, no made-up behaviour, periodt.
π SEE ALSO π
grub-probe(8)β go read that one too, bestie, it's right there π
aaaand the full documentation for grub-ofpathname is maintained as a Texinfo manual π so if the info and grub-ofpathname programs are properly installed at your site, this command:
info grub-ofpathname
should give you access to the complete manual. that's the whole "should" β it's conditional, so if info isn't installed, don't come for me π
pro tip from your girl: the manpage is short but the Texinfo manual is where the real content lives, iykyk π
okay that's the entire page, we ate and left no crumbs π this was GRUB2 2.12, dated September 2026 β mwah, love you, bye ππ§β
