I installed latest cygwin, and get the Christian's `grub2 for cygwin', but i failed to configure this grub2 with the error: 

'configure: error: GRUB requires a working absolute objcopy; upgrade your binutils'.

so i tred the 'ubuntu' latest version of Grub2 from 

`http://merges.ubuntu.com/g/grub2/`, and this time, i failed with 'configure: error: neither start nor _start is defined'.


so, how can I get a working copy of grub2 on cygwin? Any suggestion please?

Run Cygwin's setup.exe, select "Exp"erimental packages, and install the 
grub package grub :-)
The corresponding source package compiles OOTB on Cygwin without the 
above problems.
