Can't install boot-update


tel

Question

New user, fresh install, followed the installation instructions to the letter.

 

Everything went fine until I tried to "emerge boot-update"

 

This is what I get:

Not sure how to interpet this or deal with this. Obviously the install can't continue. Any thoughts?
