But whether one uses grub or grub-static, the installed files are the same,
and grub works the same regardless of which is chosen. My grub.conf has not
changed from when I was using Athlon XP's (although it's no longer called
grub.lst).

Actually, that reminds me that a year ago on amd64 architecture the

I still use this version of grub on all my amd64 machines.
Hi, shall I try 'emerge unmerge grub' and 'emerge grub-static'? Then
'install-grub' to start the system using the static ver/
This seems v. promising.
