13 | <para>On x86 and x86_64 (multilib) architectures, the preferred |
---|
14 | bootloader is Grub. Unfortunately, Grub doesn"t work on x86_64 |
---|
15 | Pure64 - the stage2 files can be correctly built as 32-bit, but the |
---|
16 | grub shell is a 64-bit program, and tries to execute some of the |
---|
17 | stage2 routines - this results in a segmentation fault. Therefore, |
---|
18 | in the final system we use Lilo as the bootloader. |
---|

---|
21 | <para>If you already have a bootloader, such as Grub, installed on |
---|
22 | the system then you should use that to make your new kernel bootable. |
---|

---|
25 | <note> |
---|
26 | <para>We will now cross-compile Bin86 and Lilo - these instructions |
---|
27 | assume you are using an x86_64 machine (e.g. booted fron a Live CD), |
---|
28 | either pure64 or multilib. This approach will not work if you are |
---|
29 | running the machine as i686, because a 32-bit kernel will not be |
---|
30 | able to execute a 64-bit binary to install the bootloader. If that |
---|
31 | is the case, you will need to install an i686 bootloader on the |
---|
32 | host system. |
