-C config_file

Specifies an alternate configuration file. See also section 3.1.1.
-m map_file

Specifies an alternate map file. See also sections 3.1.7 and 3.2.2.
-R word

Stores the specified words in the map file. The boot loader uses those words as the default command line when booting the next time. That command line is removed from the map file by the boot loader by overwriting the sector immediately after reading it. The first word has to be the name of a boot image. If -R is not followed by any words, the current default command line in the map file is erased.gif An error message is issued and a non-zero exit code is returned if the command line is not accepted.
