Hi, all
I am using GRUB to start a Linux from netwoek. PC has only flopy drive, so I
have created a GRUB boot floppy.
PC boots OK and I can manually enter some commands to get kernel to load.
So far, so good.
Now, I want to make process automatic.
According to manual, I can use embedded preset menu.
So, I am trying to rebuild GRUB with option '--enable-preset menu grub_config",
where grub_config is my configuration file.
Firstly, I am getting warnings:
configure: WARNING: you should use --build, --host, --target
configure: WARNING: invalid host type grub_config
Compillation then fails;
checking build system type... Invalid configuration 'grub_config' :machine
'grub_config' not recognised
configure: error /bin/sh/ ./config.sub grub_config failed.
If I do not specify --enable-preset-menu option, everything builds fine.
I also tried to rename grub_config to menu.lst.
I am building under RedHat 9.0 using original GRUB source code.
Here is my grub_config file:
dhcp
default 0
timeout 5
title RedHat 9.0
root (nd)
kernel /bzImage root=/dev/ram0 init=/sbin/init
initrd /initrd.gz
Thanks,
