Jay,

Basically the instructions for using the grub.conf file appl. The steps
are pretty much as outlines in the LCP_v2.txt document.

1) Create the LCP - this results in the list.data file
2) Create the VL

3) Take ownership of the TPM
4) Define the error index (if not already done)
5) Define the owner and VL indices (0x40000001 and 0x20000001,
respectively)

6) write the policies to the TPM

The Tricky part is next. When you modify the 20_linux_grub_file, make
sure that you get the appropriate SINIT module, and that your list.data
file is listed. Also - very important, make sure that the file names are
doubled (Grub2 does some strange things to the lines in the grub.cfg
file).

Of course for testing purposes, you can just hack on the grub.cfg file
(I know is says don't - but as long as you don't run the grub-mkconfig
program, you'll be okay. Again, make sure the file names are doubled,
e.g.

kernel  /tboot.gz       /tboot.gz       logging=serial,vga

Note that the tboot.gz name is doubled.

Hope this helps,

Charles
