You will need to build gdal from source WITH netcdf support. For this,
you will need to install Netcdf itself first, of course.

Refer to gdal list (and it's archives first) in case of problems.

Read above.

You need to build:

1. gdal with netcdf; you need gdal 1.3.x to use the recent version of
gdal-grass plugin

2. Grass 6.x (or build it from source; avoid using 6.01 if you can,
6.02 should be fine; 6.02 + recent changes from CVS even better; 6.1
_might_ be risky, recently many things have been going on, but the new
functionalities are worth it :), you decide)

3. gdal-grass plugin (you don't build "gdal with gdal-grass plugin";
gdal-grass is a standalone app.)
