Untar stage3 and portage snapshot to it (snapshot is faster than rsync). Chroot. Emerge portage and grub. I copied kernel from my old system to /boot. If you don't have this build a new one. Run grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg (mkdir if it doesn't exists. (http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/GRUB2) > Manually modify grub.cfg so that the root drive will match the setup of the new system. (Something like this /dev/sdb2 -> /dev/sda2 and hd1,2 -> hd0,2) If you're using grub2, you should not be manually editing grub.cfg, just /etc/default/grub and running grub2-mkconfig. The computer I'm on right now boots with EFI, and I've never had to manually touch grub.cfg. Alec
