How to properly setup INSTALLPART field in stage2

Hi,

I am working on the NTFS patch of this post :

http://www.mail-archive.com/bug-grub%40gnu.org/msg06999.html

and there is one field which I don't know how to fill
which is the INSTALLPART in stage2. It seems that if I
don't set this up properly, the configure file must be
fully qualified like (hd0,0)/boot/grub/menu.lst rather
than /boot/grub/menu.lst otherwise stage2 just don't
know where to find it.

I don't find info about this field in the
documentation section. It seems to be an unsigned long
according to the source in builtins.c which is
something like partition << 16 + 0xff. But what about
the high byte ? Is that a drive number ?

thanks for any help in advance.

gary
