[opensuse] GRUB bootable cd with network support
Hi everybody, I need to create a grub bootable cd with network support. I have so far used a combination of http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html (the Grub manual, specifically http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#Making-a-GRUB-bootable-CD_...) and http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Booting_from_the_Network_with_GRUB (an opensuse wiki explaining exactly what I want to do, with the only difference that I want to create a cd, and not a floppy). No matter what I do though, I can't seem to get network support. When I try to use Grub commands like "ifconfig" and "dhcp", I get a "Error 27: Unrecognized command" error. Any ideas what I could be missing? Thanks Marius -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

These are _NOT_ grub commands, they are system commands run after the system is booted. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

You did not mention whether your GRUB was compiled with network support. Was it? (Step 1 in the SDB article) Cheers, Leen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
