Grub and Binary Executable Format

[IntEter]

Hello.

I'm trying to have Grub run a kernel that has been compiled with the '--oformat binary' option. When I'm doing the kernel=(hd0,5)... stuff, it says that the executable format isn't recognised. What should I do?

Thanks,

I would make sure that the multiboot header is setup right (and specifies all your addresses correctly), and that it's in the first 8192 bytes of the image. As long as you specify the load addresses, I think grub will load binary kernels.
