It hasn't got anything to do with initrd or stuff like that. The grub |
| 33 |
menu comes way before that. |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
To show the menu there are 2 things that really matter: |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
- - there must exist a file /boot/grub2/grub.cfg . The important thing |
| 38 |
here is the "2": Since Gentoo supports slotted installs of both grub2 |
| 39 |
and grub legacy it has a different path for grub2. Afaik that's a |
| 40 |
fairly uncommon way of doing it (ubuntu and the like use |
| 41 |
/boot/grub/grub.cfg). |
| 42 |
If you installed grub 2 via portage you should make sure that the path |
| 43 |
contains the 2 - if not you could try ist without it. |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
- - the file has to be "sane" - the one you posted earlier looks fine, |
| 46 |
though. You could try to generate a new one via "grub2-mkconfig -o |
| 47 |
/boot/grub2/grub.cfg" nonetheless. |
