When I run "grub-install/dev/boot" (= following the manual) I i get the error "grub-install: error: cannot f= ind a GRUB for /dev/boot.  Check your device map"  I looked = at the /boot partition and there is no device map. 

I'm in= stalling gentoo running debian.  I have another os so the boot partiti= on should be properly set up.  This is on an ancient hp proliant dl385= , Gen 1.  debian is running grub 2.02~beta3-5.  This machine does= not use uefi, and the raid driver is in the kernel.

 Do i = need to hack together the device map or?  Any help appreciated, thank = you. 

Unfortunately i'm more familiar with grub legacy tha= n grub2, studying manual now (it's very verbose and takes a bit to absorb e= nough to use it.
