All would be GRUB booters -- I've written some instructions on how to create a bootable GRUB floppy, and how to use that floppy to boot a JJOS kernel sitting on a local hard drive. They're at: http://www.triptych.freeserve.co.uk/grub/index.html There's no need to worry about compiling GRUB as I've put the necessary exes there too. You will still need to compile the JOS code, though. Now that Todd's checked in the fixes, you don't need the grubfix.tgz - skip to the make jjos-grub bit. This is the least invasive way of using GRUB - nothing gets written to your hard disk at all, so it is perfectly save to give it a whirl. (Please do! I'd love to hear from someone who's got it working...) The GRUB source source is there too, and this contains full (if slightly cryptic) instructions on how to install GRUB on your hard disk as your standard boot loader. If this scares the pants off you (it did me!), I'll try and help out. It does work very nicely though ... I'll make sure the JJOS/docs get updated. -- George > -----Original Message----- > From: Todd L.
