I still recommend that the problem child, so to speak, can be bypassed by simply going to www.gnu.org, and downloading the latest source, and compiling it outside of the Gentoo emerge system. Then when Gentoo gets its ebuild working, you can always go back, doing a search on grub, and delete it. Then emerge grub. When I installed grub, I emerged it, but then I used the same install floppy that I've been using for over a year now. Perhaps that was my secret to success, a real working floppy.
