grub: Environment

 
 15 GRUB environment variables
 *****************************
 
 GRUB supports environment variables which are rather like those offered
 by all Unix-like systems.  Environment variables have a name, which is
 unique and is usually a short identifier, and a value, which is an
 arbitrary string of characters.  They may be set (⇒set), unset
 (⇒unset), or looked up (⇒Shell-like scripting) by name.
 
    A number of environment variables have special meanings to various
 parts of GRUB. Others may be used freely in GRUB configuration files.
