Details:
I'm trying to cross-compile grub2 SVN revision 2550 with the following
configure arguments: --prefix=/usr --build=i686-unknown-linux-gnu
--host=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu --target=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu (host system
is i686 while target system is x86_64). I get the following error message:
configure: error: platform "pc" is not supported for target CPU "x86_64"
I then added the --with-platform=efi configure argument (my Intel motherboard
seems to support UEFI). Now I get the following error message:
../grub2-2550/util/grub-mkfont.c:28:22: error: ft2build.h No such file or
directory
So I also added the --disable-grub-mkfont configure argument. Again, I get a
different error message:
help2man: can't get `--help' info from ./grub-mkimage
help2man: can't get `--help' info from ./grub-mkelfimage
help2man: can't get `--help' info from ./grub-fstest
help2man: can't get `--help' info from ./grub-editenv
make: *** [install-local] Error 126
I don't know a workaround for this last message, but I think it is due to the
fact that the host system is 32-bit while the target system is 64-bit, so the
target binaries cannot be executed.
