Hi,

Thank.
With the last SytemRescueCD (copied to an usb-stick) my efi bios see
that the usb-stick coulb be "efi-bootable". I see both HD and the USB
Devices in my "EFI Navigator"..

I can navigate within the SystemRescueCD trough my EFI "FileSystem
Navigator" . I cannot boot on this usb (open an .efi file), however. Now
I will check the files needed  which was wrotten in my usb.

I guess that I must  "transfer" the  Gentoo 2012 dvd Image file  to my
usb stick...but i dont know  exact. I see an old procedure to put a cd
into an usb ...but  i am not sure  if it is same about to Gento 2012..

Or I must change the DVD Gentoo 2012 ISO Image (or an old version) to
includes an " efi-able" boot sector ...  but i dont know how to
"rebuild" the iso image from a file system which includes the right dvd
boot sector.

Claude
