I downloaded Grub via brz yesterday, and it still can't compile. I've never gotten bzr Grub to compile ever. How do you guys do it? 1.99 compiles just fine.
I'm running Linux Mint 11 64-bit and gcc version 4.5.2. bzr puts a grub folder in my home folder, I cd to it, I run "sh ./autogen.sh", then "./configure [no parameters - just plain Jane ./configure]", and then "make". It gets make errors.
How do I get past these?
After running ./configure, it says this:
*******************************************************
GRUB2 will be compiled with following components:
Platform: i386-pc
With devmapper support: Yes
With memory debugging: No
With disk cache statistics: No
efiemu runtime: Yes
grub-mkfont:
Yes
grub-mount: Yes
*******************************************************
Then after running make for a while, I get this:
make[3]: *** [disk/diskfilter_module-diskfilter.o] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/shjake/grub/grub-core'
make[2]: *** [all] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/shjake/grub/grub-core'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/shjake/grub'
make: *** [all] Error 2
What do I do? Is this a bug in Grub? Last time I encountered make errors, it was said to be a bug, so I figured I'd post it to bug-grub rather than help-grub, though I would like help with this bug.
Hope this gets fixed relatively soon. I would like to play around with software raid booting, which doesn't work in 1.99, but has been reported to work from the bzr. (As in the kernel and initial
ramdisk are actually on a software raid0)
