6 What has to be polished:
7
8 All this migration left quite some traces. I had grub and grub2, the
9 EFI-stuff now in /boot/efi ... etc ... and now I have the situation
10 where GRUB2 somehow reads the wrong grub.cfg or something. For example
11 if I try to toggle using a font (for testing) it doesn't get read at
12 boot time. Even if I re-announce(?) GRUB2 to UEFI etc.
13
14 I can boot gentoo, that's OK, but I think there's too much stuff in boot
15 now.
16
17 I hesitate to remove things so I ask:
18
19 if I have that /boot/efi partition mounted, does there have to be
20 anything grub-related in /boot at all?
21
22 I followed this guide, at least in most parts:

26 and this doesn't speak of coming from an older installation of grub or
27 grub2, so it doesn't mentioned cleaning up stuff or something.
28
29 In my /boot I have:
30
31 efi
32 grub
33 grub2
34
35 ...
36
37 which seems odd to me.
38
39 And yes, I removed grub-0.9x already.
