Description Karsten 2005-01-07 02:38:10 UTC
did a emerge world with ~x86. grub-0.95.20040823 was emerged. My working grub based booting (w/framebuffers and the works) stopped working. I changed no config files. Booting stops with a grub> prompt. Typing the commands from grub.conf manually works. Symlink boot -> /boot/boot in /boot and menu.lst -> grub.conf in /boot/grub are present.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. add ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" to /etc/make.conf
2. emerge world
3. reboot

Actual Results:  
booting stopped with grub> prompt

Expected Results:  
boot using grub.conf

no errors from emerge that i noticed
