Yes, I did, or rather I thought I did. I recompiled GRUB from the
source rpm as described in the  article, but the spec file looks
somewhat different in my version (10.1) of Suse. In my spec file there
was a "./configure" and "make", followed immediately by a "make
clean", "./configure" and "make" . I added the network support to the
first "./configure" command (not seeing the second one) and assumed
that I now should have network support. After adding the relevant part
(--enable-eepro100) to the second "./configure" it worked like a
charm.

You did not mention whether your GRUB was compiled with network 
support. Was it? (Step 1 in the SDB article)

My error, I stand ( well mostly sit ) corrected.

These are _NOT_ grub commands, they are system commands run after the
system is booted.

[opensuse] GRUB bootable cd with network support

2006-12-20 Thread Marius Roets

Hi everybody,
I need to create a grub bootable cd with network support. I have so
far used a combination of
http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html (the Grub manual,
specifically 
http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#Making-a-GRUB-bootable-CD_002dROM)
and http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Booting_from_the_Network_with_GRUB (an
opensuse wiki explaining exactly what I want to do, with the only
difference that I want to create a cd, and not a floppy).

No matter what I do though, I can't seem to get network support. When
I try to use Grub commands like "ifconfig" and "dhcp", I get a "Error
27: Unrecognized command" error.

Any ideas what I could be missing?

Thanks
Marius
