Newer versions of grub2 no longer require lzo (default compression is now lzma).

Have you tried this ebuild ?

just save that ebuild to /usr/local/portage/sys-boot/grub/ and emerge it.

and setup /usr/local/portage in make.conf as an overlay dir (PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage")
and echo "local" >> /usr/local/portage/profiles/repo_name
and then digest the ebuild

I'll say this.

Don't use it.


Grub Legacy is bad enough.
