I may be just an idiot or blind, but I can't seem to find any information on building freeldr, and it doesn't seem to have a makefile. Everything that I can find points to it being loadable by GRUB and the like, but I'm not sure why I can't find the *how* on building it.
Am I just blind, or missing something extremely obvious?
(Yes, I have been searching Google for a little while now... I'm not turning anything up, yet.)
Thanks, Mike

It's built by the reactos build system (rbuild).
Type "make freeldr" from the top-level reactos directory.

Oh. Wow. That's different then it used to be :).
I'm going to guess that to install it when building on Linux that you would just copy it from the output-i386 directory to the drive, and then instruct GRUB to load it? I'm going to try that, anyway and see. It seems that the following doesn't work:
fd0man@cinnamon:~/ros/reactos$ make freeldr_install make: *** No rule to make target `freeldr_install'. Stop.
Even though the Makefile shows:
# module_install # These targets installs a single module to a location specified by the # ROS_INSTALL environment variable. Replace module with the name of the # module you want to install.
Thanks. Sorry for the apparently silly question.
