Did installing XP reshuffle your partion naming?  Can you give the exact
error messages of grub?

You could create a standalone Grub boot diskette, with which you can pretty
much boot any system, as long as you know the partition layout.  Then try to
boot Gentoo from there.

Sorry - I forgot to mention that I did do that.  After I reinstalled
GRUB (I'm used to having to reinstall LILO with Mandrake), it still
wouldn't boot - it went into some sort of panic, pretty much not being
able to find ANYTHING where it should be.  Maybe this was just a fluke?

Thanks
