grub

[Trevor Clarke <retrev@csh.rit.edu>]

I'm trying to compile GRUB on my 2.5 I386 machine. configure tells me the
objcopy is missing and sure enough it is. A search of the openbsd mailing list
archives shows that someone had the same problem and that objcopy(along with
others)was being built in src/usr.bin/binutils but not being installed. Now
there is not src/usr.bin/binutils so I grabbed binutils from gatekeeper.dec.com
and built objcopy. Got past that part but now configure complains that addr32
is unsupported in gas so I built gas(from the above binutils)and tryed that but
it also doesn't support addr32. Anyone else have this problem? Any idea how I
can fix this? If not, can you suggest an alternate bootloader as I need to boot
to NT at work on occasion.
