Hello:
It's time to try running Gentoo again, after over a decade.
I have gone through, I think, the steps, using the Gentoo LiveCD as a
launchpad.
Installing and configuring Grub has presented a little confusion, regarding
the correct boot partition. I have other GNU/Linux installs on this
machine; for all of them, I've fallen into the practice of setting up grub
in /boot/efi. However, the Gentoo Handbook does not mention this approach,
so I tried using just "/boot". As it turned out, when I
rebooted---thinking all steps had been completed---the Gentoo system does
not appear in the Grub Menu.
I have found that manjaro's grub setup has been good at picking up any
other installs, and, once a particular one has been booted, manjaro's grub
defaults to that other install. Thinking that even if grub is not working,
perhaps Manjaro would see Gentoo, I tried that.
So far, no luck. I am planning to try to mount the boot partition to
/boot/efi, now, and see what happens.
Any problems with this?
Thank you,
