OK, tested things, that grub.cfg gets read. But as I set GRUB_PLATFORMS="efi-64" there are other modules/features/commands available at boottime, for example also other/less videomodes, at least here. (vbeinfo does not exist then, and other things you get when you emerge grub with GRUB_PLATFORMS="pc". Also booting isos does not work with the same commands then, no "linux16" command, for example) I hesitate to re-emerge with "pc" just to get a different screen resolution at boot-time ... right now everything is working OK for me, and I rather wait for some feedback here before I go and crash things again ;-) There are quite a lot howtos out there, maybe even too much ... with slight differences ...
