I just took a quick glance at the ebuild, and it looks like it should print
a reminder ("Re-run grub-install to update installed boot code!") every
time you upgrade from an older version to a newer one, but it also looks
like the reminder gets skipped if you're re-emerging the same version.

You can probably use a portage hook to do it. I haven't tested it, but
something along the lines of creating a file at
"/etc/portage/env/sys-boot/grub" which contains an implementation of the
"post_pkg_postinst()" function. Then, you can copy the logic from the
ebuild to determine whether the
There is a catch related to using EFI without a conventional bootloader. If
you want your boot menu to include details such as kernel versions, then it
would be necessary to run efibootmgr every time you update the kernel. I'm
not sure if the EFI variable storage is resilient to repeated writes,
When you emerge grub, Gentoo compiles and "installs" grub (and some
grub-related tools) to a directory inside your Gentoo installation, just
like other applications. The catch is that grub isn't like other
applications... it needs to run outside of Gentoo, before Linux starts.
This means that Grub

I don't remember if it was tied to a specific popular Linux distribution,
but this used to be the common response to new Linux-converts when they
asked for the Linux version of Ctrl+Alt+Delete (to kill a hanging process).
I remember some modifier keys and escape, but I can't confirm that it was
I use either Droid Sans Mono or Inconsolata (one is a fallback for
unsupported glyphs in the other, but I forget which one's which), and I
have nothing inside my zeros. Zero is distinguished by having flattened /
vertical sides, while the capital letter 'O' is rounded.
