Okay. Looks like I did not get any manual docs because "makeinfo" failed.
I have GNU makeinfo installed version 4.8. The OS is Linux RedHat 2.6.18-8.el5. I "cd" to the docs directory and issue "makeinfo grub.texi". I'm getting a bunch of errors (see below). What do I need to do to correct the errors?

The grub versionis pointing to 0.97 as opposed to > 1.97. There is no more this grub binary with grub2. You have to use grub-install now to install it, which even with GRUB Legacy was the prefered way. And you can use optionally use grub-mkconfig to generate a grub.cfg for you. > Also, when I execute "info grub", it states that this is the > documentation for version 0.97. The info docs are still mostly just copied from GRUB Legacy. Anyway do you have makeinfo installed? In Debian it's in the texinfo package. Without it you won't get the info docs. > The Wiki manual says: "The make install made the utilities go to their > final places on the host." Am I looking at the wrong files? No, we only use (currently) $prefix/bin and $prefix/sbin for the tools. -- Felix Zielcke Proud Debian Maintainer and GNU GRUB developer
