* docs/user-ref.texi (Invoking the grub shell): Added a caution.
Why don't so many people still understand that BIOS drive
numbering are different from OS device naming? How many cautions
and warnings should we write in the documentation? Sigh.

This chapter documents the grub shell @command{grub}.
This chapter documents the grub shell @command{grub}. Note that the grub
shell is an emulator; it doesn't run under the native environment, so it
sometimes does something wrong. Therefore, you shouldn't trust it too
much. If there is anything wrong with it, don't hesitate to try the
native GRUB environment, especially when it guesses a wrong map between
BIOS drives and OS devices.
