Grub on DiskOnChip2000

Grub on DiskOnChip2000

[Marcus Birkin]

Hi

Basicly i'm stuck, i've read the HowTo 
(http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2002-October/006166.html)

I've got to the stage where i compile grub, it compiles with out error. But 
theres no grub_firmware in /stage1.

After reading the documention with MTD, i find out how to create a 
grub_firmware file from pre_stage2, this compiles fine and i'm then able to 
flash it to my DiskOnChip2000.
I reboot, and grub loads, but it can only access hd0 (not dc0).
The diskonchip has a valid ext2 partion (with a copy of the /boot from hd0).

Any ideas what i'm doing wrong?

Regards
Marcus

There is the README_DiskOnChip file that appears after applying the patch
from the patches/ directory.  It recommends to start these commands before
starting the configure script:

   aclocal && automake && autoconf

The above commands will re-generate the configure script and Makefile.in
files.  The patch itself won't modify the configure script and Makefile.in
just because it is possible to re-generate the latter files once their
templates are patched.
