GRUB configure error: GRUB requires a working absolute objcopy

[Sreeni Guduguntla]

Hi,

  We are building grub0.97 for AMD GEOD Processor.
Grun configure fails with the following error.
 "GRUB configure error: GRUB requires a working
absolute objcopy". After going through GRUB website
and net, I am not even sure where the problem is (in
binutils or grub configure ). I tried with
2.16.1,2.17,2.18 bin utils but same problem.

can any one of you point to potential fix?.

I am new to the forum. Hence sorry beforehand if I
unknowingly didn't follow any etiqutte.

Thanks in advance,
