100 % agreement here. I'm running Debian which has moved over to
grub2 in the newest (wheezy) install media.
Here is just a factual count of files
s just Ubuntu's
implementation -- but it was both complicated and difficult. There
are 10X as many files, and to change anything you edit a whole set of
configuration files and run a utility that generates _another_ set of
configuration files.

Thanks for the hints. Indeed, I didn't read the news regarding grub.
Booting from a rescue system and running grub-install followed by a grub-
mkconfig solved the problem.

When you emerge grub, Gentoo compiles and "installs" grub (and some
grub-related tools) to a directory inside your Gentoo installation, just
like other applications. The catch is that grub isn't like other
applications... it needs to run outside of Gentoo, before Linux starts.

then, upon reboot, how do I get to grub.conf so I have the
