Hello! Well, I'm using Gentoo 1.2, and the latest portage version of grub. I had Linux and Windows, in (hd0,4) and (hd0,0) respectively, and grub went very well. But I had to reinstall windows, and because Windows remove anything from the MBR that isn't from Windows, I had to reinstall grub in the MBR, I type in my shell: # grub grub > root (hd0,4) grub > setup (hd0) It gave no error, so I rebooted the system. But now instead of showing the beautiful gentoo grub screen, grub says: Grub loading stage1.5. Grub loading, please wait.... And shows no more, no error given!. It remains like that infinitely (at least all the time I could be waiting ). About first 20 seconds the hard disk led is on, and after it stop shining. So I'm ussing the grub recue floppy for booting Linux and Windows.

try emerging grub 0.92 and re-running the grub stuff
You were right! I had grub 0.90, so I installed the last masked version, 0.92r1, ran the commands # grub grub > root (hd0,4) grub > setup (hd0) grub > quit and it now function as well as always! Thanks you ;-) Bug finished I think.
