OP, if it were me, I'd chroot in, re-emerge grub, reinstall grub to the drive and then try to reboot. It doesn't seem to me that it is the OS itself or the kernel since it doesn't seem to get that far either. It's either a BIOS or a grub issue. I'm thinking along the same lines of Meino myself. Since chrooting in is a bit of a pain, I'd cover the whole field while in it. Don't forget, you can use the -K option to install from binaries if you save them. That may save a little bit of time. Hope that helps. Dale :-) :-)
