Reproducible: Always Actual Results: Grub starts but it offers no menu, but shell. agaffney@gentoo.org 2008-05-09 12:39:29 0000 This is not a release bug. That version of grub isn't even in the snapshot used to build _beta2. Did you actually try to boot and it failed? I'm pretty sure grub (at least gentoo's) will work with just grub.conf, but I could be wrong. ivor.prebeg@fer.hr 2008-05-09 13:45:45 0000 (In reply to comment #1) > This is not a release bug.

After I added menu.lst symlink, problem was solved. tobia.fasciati@gmail.com 2008-05-09 20:45:57 0000 I had the same problem. at the grub prompt, i wrote"configfile /boot/grub/grub.conf" and then i got the usual menu. ln -s /boot/grub/grub.conf menu.lst fixed the problem. I'm on Amd64. vapier@gentoo.org 2008-05-10 09:00:55 0000 ive restored the menu.lst -> grub.conf symlink http://sources.gentoo.org/sys-boot/grub/grub-0.97-r5.ebuild?r1=1.11&r2=1.12
