Subject: [gentoo-user] How to correct error in grub.conf


Hi all, 
        I am new to gentoo and made a blunder during the installation of
grub. I created grub.conf with "nano -w /boot/grub/grub.conf" as directed in
the x86-install page but I saved it with a typo. When I boot I notice that
the entries I made had an error. I use my trusty recovery disk to boot to
grub and now want to correct my errors in grub.conf.
        The question is: using grub, how does one edit and save grub.conf?
I can "cat (hd0,0)/boot/grub/grub.conf" to view my blunder .
thanks 
john 



ACK.  Please don't send e-mail to the list in html format.  It 
sucks to work with and many won't read it.

I've never tried to work in grub's limited environment.  I just
pull out the handy livecd, boot it, and use that much more
robust environment to make changes.  It's quite easy and won't
take much longer.
