Did you generate the config with "grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg" after that? Attach grub.cfg here and your /boot directory listing. Also the boot messages. If you want to get GRUB 0.97 back, it should be simple: 1. Boot into systemrescuecd 2. Chroot into you Gentoo (see the handbook) 3. "emerge -C grub" 4. "emerge grub:0" 5. Run grub-install
