you didn't specify grub2 on the command line or (my preference) in
/etc/genkernel.conf. So genkernel assumes you don't want it to fix your
boot loader. If the kernel and ramdisk are all built, you can fix grub's
config with grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg. For future kernel
builds, read the paramaters in man genkernel so you know how to specify
the boot loader, or just edit /etc/genkernel.conf and set the bootloader
from none to grub2.

My system will not boot.
I installed sys-power/acpid and wanted to double check the kernel
configuration.
I run: genkernel --menuconfig all
The ACPI option was enabled so I exit the menu but it started to compile the
kernel so I press CTRL-C (to stop it).
Upon rebooting the X will not start no root login, just a screen with login:
"joseph (none)"
I bootstrap the PC and run: genkernel --menuconfig all
and finish compiling, and I get a message:
-------------

What went wrong?
Here is my fstab:
LABEL=boot /boot vfat noauto,noatime 1 2
UUID=d32946b3-2236-4998-80dd-68b7d78e0c7b / ext4 noatime 0 1
LABEL=swap none swap sw 0 0
