5 If /boot is not mounted by default, then "yes". The "menu.lst"
6 and "grub.conf" files live in /boot/grub and these are updated
7 when grub is upgraded, although menu.lst is usually a symlink
8 to grub.conf.

10 If you're upgrading grub through the emerge process, then /boot
11 will be mounted for you, IIRC.
