You can checkout the newreloc branch from bazaar with the following command: bzr branch http://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/r/grub/branches/newreloc/ I did the following to build and test it last night: ./autogen.sh ./configure make ./grub-mkimage --directory=grub-core -O i386-pc --output=core.img --prefix="(pxe)/boot/grub" pxe pxecmd cat grub-core/pxeboot.img grub-core/core.img > grub-core/grub2pxe cp grub-core/*.mod /var/lib/tftpboot/boot/grub/ cp grub-core/*.lst /var/lib/tftpboot/boot/grub/ cp grub-core/grub2pxe /var/lib/tftpboot/boot/grub/ Your target directories will surely vary :) -- Omni Flux
