Thanks to everyone.  I feel like this was so easy, how could I have
been confused?  But I was.  Somehow, I was lost for weeks between the
ways that Ubuntu and Gentoo handle grub---and I was trying to install
unstable ubuntu with grub 2, so that may explain some of it, but not
all, surely.

I used the usbkey.  Installed grub on the drive I WANT to be /dev/sda,
and, what do you know?  It worked.

Thanks.

Alan
