Hi,
I'm able to compile L4 Fiasco + DOpE + L4Linux and test run on Qemu. But when i run it on the real machine, the GRUB seems don't support for modaddr and vbeset command.
Are you sure you are running the right version of grub? Grub should display a version string like "GNU GRUB version 0.97-os.7"
I got the GRUB-0.97 source from Adam's website and compile successfully. But what is the next step after this in order to boot directly on the current machine? I tried to copy directly the compiled files to /boot/grub but it didn't shows the menu.lst
You definitely need to install it first. Here is a good site that explains the installation process: http://orgs.man.ac.uk/documentation/grub/grub_3.html
instead of that, i'm also not sure about how to tftpboot to another machine? any site or instructions on how to achieve this?
There are a lot of howto-site around. Try to google words like "pxegrub tftp dhcp". Depending on your distribution you may add words like ubuntu or debian. Basically, you need a dhcp server in order to assign your client an IP address and to tell the client where to find the pxegrub binary. Of course, you also need a tftpserver to serve the files. Have a look at dnsmasq which implements a lightweight dhcp, dns and tftp server. This one works for me here.
Best regards,
