The handbook says that sys-kernel/installkernel-gentoo should be
installed by default. [1]

Just throw in my 2 cents, I use genkernel to manage compiling and
installing the kernel. With a little configuring you can get it to
compile, install and run grub-mkconfig for you. That way I can't forget
to run grub-mkconfig or something.
