You can find Eyrbyggja saga at

this version uses modern Icelandic spelling rather than any
of the traditional normalized Old Norse spellings, but I
think that it’s the one that Grace has been using as source.
Three late 19th century editions are freely available from
Google Books:

<

<

These are also available at <archive.org>.
The first shows variant readings from different mss; the
second has no footnotes but does use probably the most
familiar normalization; and the third has a lot of
explanatory footnotes (in German).
You can find Laxdæla saga at
<
http://www.snerpa.is/net/isl/laxdal.htm>,
again in modern Icelandic spelling, and again I think the
version from which Grace is taking the assignments. Google
books has at least two editions in more traditional ON
normalized spellings:
<

<
http://books.google.com/books?id=UEMRAQAAMAAJ>
The first has variants, and the second has copious
explanatory footnotes in German. At least the second is
also available at <archive.org>.
