You can just ignore it.
It is true that this error is not very important, but I think it is better not to ignore this error. Because, if Stage 1.5 becomes bigger, Stage2 should become bigger as well. This does not affect anything, if the size is still not too big. But if this exceeds available free space before EBDA, this could be fatal. Probably Meino specified CFLAGS and/or CPPFLAGS explicitly when compiling GRUB. Since the default CFLAGS is quite optimized to reduce the binary size, you should not try to alter the flags. We must add this into the FAQ. Okuji _______________________________________________ Bug-grub mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-grub
