Well, when I do it, I do it right.  Through a bad combination of typos
and missing an <enter> I deleted everything in /boot.  :-(

This is what I did to (try to) recover:

  # cd /boot
  # mklost+found
  # emerge grub
  [...edited grub.conf...]
  [...recompiled kernel & modules and installed...]

I *thought* that's all I'd need, but upon boot up:

  Warning:unable to open an initial console
  Kernel panic- not syncing: no init found. Try passing init= option to kernel

I compiled the kernel myself, not with genkernel.  I'm stumped at the
moment & would be glad to try any ideas anyone might have.

Many thanks!
Mike
