grub: Obtaining and Building GRUB
Appendix A How to obtain and build GRUB
***************************************
*Caution:* GRUB requires binutils-2.9.1.0.23 or later because the
GNU assembler has been changed so that it can produce real 16bits
machine code between 2.9.1 and 2.9.1.0.x. See
<http://sources.redhat.com/binutils/>, to obtain information on how
to get the latest version.
GRUB is available from the GNU alpha archive site
<ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/grub> or any of its mirrors. The file will be
named grub-version.tar.gz. The current version is 2.06, so the file you
should grab is:
<ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/grub/grub-2.06.tar.gz>
To unbundle GRUB use the instruction:
zcat grub-2.06.tar.gz | tar xvf -
which will create a directory called 'grub-2.06' with all the
sources. You can look at the file 'INSTALL' for detailed instructions
on how to build and install GRUB, but you should be able to just do:
cd grub-2.06
./configure
make install
Also, the latest version is available using Git. See
<http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/grub-download.html> for more
information.
