+Title: GRUB2 migration
+Author: Mike Gilbert <floppym@gentoo.org>
+Content-Type: text/plain
+Posted: 2013-10-14
+Revision: 1
+News-Item-Format: 1.0
+Display-If-Installed: <sys-boot/grub-1
+
+A newer version of GRUB (sys-boot/grub) is now stable. There are now
+two available slots:
+
+sys-boot/grub:0 - Known as "GRUB Legacy"
+sys-boot/grub:2 - Known as "GRUB2"
+
+GRUB2 uses a different configuration format, and requires a manual
+migration before your system will actually use it. A guide [1] is
+available on the gentoo.org website, and the Gentoo wiki [2][3] has
+additional information.
+
+If you would prefer not to migrate at this time, you do not need to
+take any action: GRUB Legacy will remain functional in /boot. To
+prevent any associated files (documentation) from being removed, add
+sys-boot/grub:0 to your world file. For example:
+
+emerge --noreplace sys-boot/grub:0
