Did you generate the config with |
| 19 |
"grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg" after that? |
| 20 |
Attach grub.cfg here and your /boot directory listing. |
| 21 |
Also the boot messages. |

If you want to get GRUB 0.97 back, it should be simple: |
| 24 |
1. Boot into systemrescuecd |
| 25 |
2. Chroot into you Gentoo (see the handbook) |
| 26 |
3. "emerge -C grub" |
| 27 |
4. "emerge grub:0" |
| 28 |
5. Run grub-install |
