Just to make sure, remember that grub has to be installed in the boot sector |
| 11 |
of your drive and it needs a built in reference so it can find the config |
| 12 |
file and stage2-*s. Assuming you followed the install guides on gentoo.org |
| 13 |
you would have looked through the following |

Also consider that grub doesn't understand sda or hda terminology, only |
| 17 |
numbers. The stuff on the kernel line is for the kernel to pick up and use in |
| 18 |
conjunction with your /etc/fstab file |

Sigh. I like to think it's just the Linux people who want to be on |
| 21 |
the "leading edge" so bad they walk right off the precipice. |
