I have a newish install I've been running for a while. Today I added a setting to the kernel and rebuilt.
The final move I made on the kernel move was "make install all" No looking at the /boot/grub/grub.conf all I find is the example file that comes with install. If there was old version before calling "make install all" , it has been removed I guess. I've created a version from a very old one I had in some very old backup and wondering if all the options on the kernel line are still valid. (I do have the VESA ahd vesafb (frame buffer) and mtrr stuff checked in the kernel config). And "root" is at /dev/hda4 ,---- | default 0 | timeout 10 | splashimage=(hd0,0)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz | | title Gentoo Linux 4.1.6 | root (hd0,0) | kernel /boot/vmlinuz-4.1.6-gentoo root=/dev/hda4 vga=0x31A video=vesafb:mtrr,ywrap `---- I'm pretty confident of everything but the kernel line. Before I reboot, find it fails to boot, and have lots of huffing and puffing starting up with grub commands or having to go back to an install .ISO to get insdide, I hoped someone here could tell me if my grub.conf is likely to work
