Summary

0000426: grub and syslinux are not properly integrated into build process

Description

It is possible to select grub and syslinux during "make menuconfig", but both packages are not compiled, because the line

include */*/*.mk

is missing inside the main Makefile (grub.mk resides in target/x86/grub which is nested one level too deep for the default configuration).

Besides, grub is cross-compiled, but the binaries are not copied into the target filesystem (at least grub, stage1, stage2 are needed) . I am not sure if it is better to do this or to compile grub for the host system instead.

(0000961) prpplague 01-20-06 12:16	adding the include with such wild cards seems a little risky. instead, keeping with the current tree style, i've add Makefile.in files so that they are read properly. fixed as of 13456
