Subject: [gentoo-user] booting to grub prompt, but config works
Date: Fri, 9 May 2008 15:32:10 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <12c639a20805091232l43b239e1o8189c3a023157d5d@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I'm performing a gentoo installation and have proceeding without
problem until I went to reboot.  I am greeted with the grub prompt and
when issuing $>configfile /boot/grub/grub.conf    the boot process
continues without issue.  The grub-install command seemed to work
correctly, and I've been googling for some trouble-shooting ideas
without headway.

Any advice would be appreciated.  Thank you.
