Re: [Trustedgrub-users] large stage1 and stage2 files

[Matt A. <mr...@hp...>]

Yea... its pretty crazy.  I've attached but the ls -lR for when I build
from source, and when I build with the OpenTC srpm from SuSE which
amazingly enough just works on my Fedora system.

I'm going to try to build on some other architectures, I'm still a bit
weary on this core duo.
