I' trying to install funtoo from arch linux. I downloaded amd-pildriver stage tar file, I followed the Install guide, which doesn't seems to be accurate. I started to have different results when tried to emerge ibus. This seems that updated a lot of packages(131), and also installed genkernel. So, afterwards I installed linux-firmware and grub. And here is my problem. Grub installed without problem, but now when I run "ego boot update", it doesn't do nothing and no /boot/grub/grub.cfg genereted.
I have an MBR system and I already have grub installed, so I don't want to install grub again, just to generate the grub.cfg file. I don't have a /boot partition and I have set / in fstab using the UUID of partition.
The boot.conf file has these:
boot {
generate grub
default "Funtoo Linux"
timeout 3
}
"Funtoo Linux" {
kernel bzImage[-v]
}
"Funtoo Linux genkernel" {
kernel kernel[-v]
initrd initramfs[-v]
# IMPORTANT: Most users will want to remove "nomodeset", below!
#
# It is included in the initial install to ensure that virtually all
# systems boot up with a readable initial console.
# But all graphics drivers (with the one exception of the proprietary
# NVIDIA drivers) REQUIRE mode setting to be enabled, and thus the
# nomodeset option must be REMOVED prior to setting up a graphical
# environment or X will not start. Remember to run "ego boot update" after
# removing the option, and then reboot prior to configuring X.
# Also note that if you are using a 4K or higher resolution display, your
# console text may become very small after enabling kernel mode setting
# since it will display your console at the native resolution of your
# display.
params += real_root=auto rootfstype=auto
}
When I run "ego boot update" I get this:
* Generating config for grub...
* No /etc/fstab entry for /boot; not mounting.

Hello,
I' trying to install funtoo from arch linux. I downloaded amd-pildriver stage tar file, I followed the Install guide, which doesn't seems to be accurate. I started to have different results when tried to emerge ibus. This seems that updated a lot of packages(131), and also installed genkernel. So, afterwards I installed linux-firmware and grub. And here is my problem. Grub installed without problem, but now when I run "ego boot update", it doesn't do nothing and no /boot/grub/grub.cfg genereted.
I have an MBR system and I already have grub installed, so I don't want to install grub again, just to generate the grub.cfg file. I don't have a /boot partition and I have set / in fstab using the UUID of partition.
The boot.conf file has these:
boot { generate grub default "Funtoo Linux" timeout 3 } "Funtoo Linux" { kernel bzImage[-v] } "Funtoo Linux genkernel" { kernel kernel[-v] initrd initramfs[-v] # IMPORTANT: Most users will want to remove "nomodeset", below! # # It is included in the initial install to ensure that virtually all # systems boot up with a readable initial console. # But all graphics drivers (with the one exception of the proprietary # NVIDIA drivers) REQUIRE mode setting to be enabled, and thus the # nomodeset option must be REMOVED prior to setting up a graphical # environment or X will not start.

When I run "ego boot update" I get this:
* Generating config for grub... * No /etc/fstab entry for /boot; not mounting.
and no grub.conf is generated.
