Re: compile grub, how to? - 2006/02/21 14:27 Hi mamaar, welcome to our forums!

GRUB is a Multiboot compliat bootloader and having your OS started by it doesn't involve its compilation/linkin into the project.

You can read more about the Multiboot Standard here.

I know I have somewhere some C and ASM examples regarding how to build the required arrays and a linking script for GNU LD, but I cannot seem to find them at the moment

I will get back when I get them.

Re: compile grub, how to? - 2006/03/01 07:59 Hi mamaar,

I found the resources I told you about

The URL is: http://www.openbg.net/sto/os/xml/grub.html

The document is very well written so there shouldn't be any problems, but please drop a message if you still have questions.

Enjoy!
