Seems to have built on x86_64 (pure64) with a DESTDIR install. But I got a lot of errors while it was creating the info files, ending in ../docs/grub.texi:83: Menu reference to nonexistent node `Preset Menu' (perhaps incorrect sectioning?). ../docs/grub.texi:81: Menu reference to nonexistent node `Network' (perhaps incorrect sectioning?). ../docs/grub.texi:80: Menu reference to nonexistent node `Configuration' (perhaps incorrect sectioning?). ../docs/grub.texi:964: warning: unreferenced node `Menu entry editor'. This is using texinfo-4.13. Status was 0, so I carried on. I'm not close to testing it (need to create an up to date lilo rescue CD before I start, then see if grub-mkrescue can create a CD (I don't have any floppy drives) - found some docs, but I think they were for grub-legacy. At this point, the missing Configuration node in the info is a pain, and there is nothing in info for grub-mkrescue. Also, it created man1 and man8 directories, but they are empty. Oh well, at least grub-mkrescue is a script. Looks as if cdrom is the default, but El Torito emulation isn't.. ĸen -- After tragedy, and farce, "OMG poneys!" -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
