RMGR Documentation needed

[Daniel Koch]

My problem is that I don`t want to use this specially designed GRUB for my 
purpose. I don`t have a network to boot (only floppy or Reiserfs) from, so it 
seems to me that adjusting the makefiles would be the solution for me. 
Unfortunately I don`t know how exactly to adjust these files so that they`re 
correctly linked. Perhaps anyone can help me there ?
