I've always used Lilo, which is simple + reliable : I never see questions re it here, but there are many re Grub. I do use recent hardware, a cutting-edge machine I built 6 mth ago . When setting it up, I suppressed UEFI in the BIOS settings : isn't that what anyone not running M$ would do ? > Gentoo devs only are saying that if by having separated /usr > without an initramfs, you risk screwing your system. I haven't been reading this long thread -- merely skimming some of it -- , & I missed or didn't understand what is being proposed or imposed. There was an issue earlier re not having /use on a separate partition & both my machines have it on the same partition as / . Is this thread re that earlier matter or is it a new item ? -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Cities Centre, University of Toronto TRANSIT `-O----------O---' purslowatchassdotutorontodotca
