I've no idea how it broke, but after an emerge --sync, a kernel (gentoo-sources) update was there. After I compiled the kernel, I did the usual "make modules_install && make install". I edited grub.conf only to the point of changing the booted kernel to the new one (just a matter of changing -r1 to -r2 at the end of the kernel filename). I reboot, Grub stops working. It just displays "GRUB" and hangs there.

What might have cause this?
$ cat /var/log/portage/elog/sys-boot:grub-0.97-r6:20090117-194927.log
LOG: preinst

I did not update or re-install grub. The only thing I did was compile a kernel and copy the kernel image to /boot.

Sorry. The updated grub was only released in the last month or two, so I assumed this was the first time you had rebooted since.

Stroller.
