For all tunings you can imagine: http://www.howtotuneaguitar.org/
By ear II (using an already tuned EBGDAE guitar)
Play the sixth fret of your fifth string and tune your low E string to match the fretted note. When in tune your sixth string should be one octave lower then the sixth fret of the fifth string. Once your low E string is in tune, continue to tune your guitar in the classic standard tuning way. Here is a quick refresher on standard tuning. Fret the fifth string of your low E and match the open 5th string of your guitar to the fretted note. Continue this process up each new string. The only exception to this rule in standard tuning is the B string. To tune the B string, you fret the fourth string of the prior string instead of the fifth.
Grotty and scraffy (but useful and quick)
Put a capo on the first fret (just pulling slightly the strings, without buzz but also without a lot of tension). Then tune the guitar normally (to EBGDAE). And then take the capo off... Vòila!! Your guitar is now tuned in Eb Bb Gb Db Ab Eb.
