grub-0.97 problem

HI !

 Not to far into l4 yet - so this is most likely quite basic.
 trying to get L4Linux-2.6 to boot from hard disk. To get it to
 boot the docs say to use the modified grub - first shot was the
 grub cvs version - but that does not compile with gcc 3.3.6 (looks
 like it compiles up to gcc 3.2.X only - so next show was the 
 patched grub-0.97 with the diff from ~adam/grub/ (patch < grub-0.97-os.diff)
 recompiled (./configure, make) and installed it(make install, grub-install 
 /dev/hda) - booting gives me:

    GNU GRUB  version 0.97-os.1  (640K lower / 228288K upper memory)

 followed by the menu - so I guess it worked. But if I use any of the
 features (i.e. set VAR := VAL, reference as $(VAL) ) it does not seem
 to know of these extensions ?

 the following is a part of my menu.lst:


<snip>
set P := (hd0,1)/usr/src/l4/l4/bin/x86_586/l4v2/
set C := (hd0,1)/usr/src/l4/cfg
set L := (hd0,1)/usr/src/l4/l4linux/

# For booting GNU/Linux

   The target "hello" fails with

kernel $(P)/rmgr -sigma0

Error 1: Filename must be either an absolute pathname or blocklist

   The target "hello2" loads as expected (it fails for other reasons later 
   though)

 I'm excluding hardware problems as the demo-CD version works fine - so its
 something thats wrong in this menu.lst ? 

 I also tried removing the (hd0,1) from the settings as I did not have that
 in the hardcoded modules - so using: 
 set P := /usr/src/l4/l4/bin/x86_586/l4v2/
 but that did not change anything.

 regarding booting of linux - with all paths absolute due to the above problem:

 Any hint on what I've messed up - also pointers on how to get usable debug
 infos out of such a situation would be appreciated - I did fine some short
 l4_install.notes describing setup of hello + L4Linux but they seem to be a 
 bit out of date. My suspicion is that the grub is not correctly patched and
 thus these problems...

thx !
