But I have a problem, after I do
emerge --update world
when I make grub2-install, I get off this error:
/usr/lib/grub/i386-pc doesn't exist. Please especify --target
or --directory
So I choice a target:
grub-install --target x86_64-efi/ /dev/sdb
And this says me:
Fatal: Couldn't open either sysfs or procfs directories for
accesing EFI variables
Try "modprobe efivars" as root
I try it and nothing happens... I mounted sys and proc following the gentoo
handbook:
# mount -t proc proc /mnt/gentoo/proc # mount
--rbind /sys /mnt/gentoo/sys # mount --rbind /dev
/mnt/gentoo/dev
This is my df -h:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
rootfs 15G 3.1G 11G 23% / udev
10M 4.0K 10M 1% /dev tmpfs 15G 3.1G 11G
23% / /dev/sdb2 15G 3.1G 11G 23% /

/dev shm 1.8G 0 1.8G 0% /dev/shm
No errors mounting :/
Thank you! Bytes! ;)
