Grub2 (or os-prober) can't find Gentoo installs. You have to add it manually or add a script that generates the Gentoo entry "blindy".

Read some tutorial here. Gentoo wasn't detected automatically from Ubuntu. I needed to configure it manually following the Gentoo handbook. Al

For creating 32bit gentoo on 64bit debian use /usr/bin/linux32 before you chroot to gentoo stage root. So the plan I see is: 1. create gentoo on server (linux32, chroot, compile, emerge -e world, etc). You can always recompile world with another set of CFLAGS if you have different machine, so set CGLAGS for generic 686 2. create experimental environment with debian and compiled gentoo in virtualbox 3. learn about problems (bios, grub, grub2, backup copies) 4. do it :) good luck -- Kacper Kopczyński

If Debian already has it (and is your main system) I would adapt it there. If you install it into experimental Gentoo and break it, you will not even be able to boot Debian. Al
