Re-emerge and re-install Grub. If Grub hangs when you try to install
it, which I assume is what is happening, then you can try starting as: #

that there's a hardware hick up of some sort.

If it is initrd, you should have a /linuxrc script to initialize the

Then your linuxrc script must *not* exit.
