I added "GRUB_PLATFORMS="pc" after I install grub per handbook.

Here is my output from grub-install
Code:

sysrescue /etc/default # grub-install /dev/sda
Installing for i386-pc platform.
Installation finished. No error reported.
sysrescue /etc/default # grub-install /dev/sda^C
sysrescue /etc/default # grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
Generating grub configuration file ...
Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-5.15.59-gentoo
Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-5.15.59-gentoo.old
done





Now this error:
Code:

error: file '/grub/i386-pc/normal.mod' not found

grub resuce>

How can I totally clear /boot/ and start from scratch.

I am doing and openrc with bios boot.

/boot ext4
swap
/ ext4

I can boot now after compiling the kernel.
I still have a few problems.
