At least it compiles, I can test if it also works. Actually, the problem I had was that grub2 gives that error during stage 1 : GRUB Read Error and is because an asm instruction was removed in stage 1 which was a workaround for buggy BIOSes like mine. Does your computer works with grub legacy ? there are not much changes between legacy's stage 1 and grub 2's one. Vincent Pelletier
