Map Command

Displays a mapping of drive letters to physical device names. This information is useful when you run the fixboot and fixmbr commands. The map command is only available when you are using the Recovery Console.

Map [arc]

Parameter

arc

Instructs the map command to display Advanced RISC Computing (ARC) device names instead of device names. An example of an ARC device name is:

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)

The equivalent device name is:

\Device\HardDisk0\Partition1

Example

The following example maps the physical device names to the drive letters using ARC device names:

map arc

Notes

If you do not use the arc parameter, the map command displays device names. 
The map command also displays the type of file system and the size of each disk in megabytes (MB).
