build problems with 6.04-pre1
hello everybody,
apologies if I'm missing something here
Just tried to build 6.04-pre1 test version with:
make bios installer
and found some problems all (seemingly) related to inaccurate paths in
various Makefiles.
I enclose a complete patch at the end of this email, which details the
problems I found and how they got fixed for me.
As an example, this is the first error I got:

build problems with 6.04-pre1
...nd install syslinux and in this script I was
exporting a FIRMWARE variable like this:
export FIRMWARE="bios"
A variable called FIRMWARE is also used in syslinux's Makefiles and
having it defined (to "bios") in the environment caused the problems.
Changing FIRMWARE to GB_FIRMWARE in my script fixed everything and
build/install completed without a glitch (as always).
I can add that I was using this script since quite a long time and never
experienced problems: 6.04-pre1 must have introduced some change in
some Makefile that caused the problems.
Again, I'm very sorr...
