Treacherous GRUB isn't our software. Moreover it puts your freedom in danger.

Grab the tarball, then ./configure && make && sudo make install && sudo grub-install /dev/sdX, replace X with boot drive. You can either reuse your GRUB legacy config by putting following in grub.cfg: legacy_source /boot/grub/menu.lst Or generate modern grub.cfg with grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg > and also could you let me know that how can i build the legacy GRUB on > a 64bit machine - when ever i try to build it gives me a error "error: > GRUB requires a working absolute objcopy; upgrade your binutils". We don't support GRUB Legacy anymore. --=20 Regards Vladimir '=CF=86-coder/phcoder' Serbinenko --------------enigD8793B62E6CABD656E261A03 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iF4EAREKAAYFAk4m45wACgkQNak7dOguQglMrgD/WzuVELADGQOlNxovM2QnDS13 f5fcFaTdgJq0stFgBOwA/2svDz3AtjSVVfzVMlShxdigzuw1haOoXgAjQF0u0bRo =6wHL -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enigD8793B62E6CABD656E261A03--
