Re: configure fail for grub

[James Shewey]

This is what I used (64 bit ubuntu trying to compile grub2 latest SVN [at the time, that was about 2 mos ago]) to compile (which resulted in this error). I had to compile on 32 bit to get it to work. I compiled on 32 bit because I either read it on the mailing list or was told that in the IRC channel at the time. But if it should work... Try compiling it with the latest version of SVN and see what happens. If it still doesn't work, see if you can work with the devs here to figure out why it is not working.

Regards,

James

I compile GRUB 2 SVN always on 64 bit Ubuntu...

So please try with SVN version.
