Sounds like you forgot to mount the /boot partition before going through the Grub setup. I've done this a couple of times when recompiling my kernel. Posting your grub.conf file will help some, but I think the problem is in how/when grub got installed.

I'm not very formilar with grub or the details of the boot process so bare with me. After I install gentoo and reboot the computer I get the following output: GRUB hard disk error I've gone through the installation manual and looked to google to find a solution but couldn't diagnose the problem. I've complied the kernel and copied the bzImage to the /boot directory on /dev/hda1 and installed grub as my bootloader. I have two partitions /dev/hda1 >> / /dev/hda2 >> swap I've set /dev/hda1 to be bootable using cfdisk. One odd thing I noticed was that when I installed grub, /grub/ was created rather than /boot/grub/ as mentioned in all the gentoo examples I've seen. I've tried linking to the /grub/ directory and even copied the directory recursivly into the /boot/ directory but the same problem exists. I'm out of ideas here and any help is apprieciated. Thx. Jason
