I followed the instructions in https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/GRUB2_Migration, after copying my grub.conf as you suggested, but when I rebooted, the GRUB2 menu text was minuscule, it only included one of the five kernel lines it should have, and when it ran it didn't start my RAID devices. As I said before, maybe later. I need to find out far more about GRUB2 before i dive in, and that's not for today. -- Rgds Peter
