Hi Matt, I just googled your error message and it seems, that this bug is related to some compilers in 64-Bit machine distributions. Although on my Gentoo 64-Bit machine, everything compiles smoothly, there might be some incompatibilities with other distros... Please try the following fix I found on the net: --- grub-0.97-bkp/configure.ac 2005-11-05 16:53:00.419491832 -0200 +++ grub-0.97/configure.ac 2005-11-05 16:53:13.777461112 -0200 @@ -47,7 +47,7 @@ fi if test "x$host_cpu" = xx86_64; then - CFLAGS="-m32 $CFLAGS" + CFLAGS="-m64 $CFLAGS" fi Best regards, Marcel Matt Anderson schrieb: > Marcel Selhorst wrote: >> oh... never heard of that error message before ;) > > Heh.. why do I get the feeling I should have looked harder for an FAQ :) > >> My binutils-version is 2.18, but I'm pretty sure, that 2.17 should >> work as well...
