10 According to the notes I took when installing Gentoo for the first time
11 I did:
12
13 # echo 'GRUB_PLATFORMS="efi-64"' >> /etc/portage/make.conf
14 # emerge --ask --verbose sys-boot/grub:2
15 # grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot
16 # grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
17
18 and on my system there is no directory "/boot/efi/":
19
20 # ls -dp /boot/*/* | grep /$
21 /boot/EFI/gentoo/
22 /boot/grub/fonts/
23 /boot/grub/locale/
24 /boot/grub/themes/
25 /boot/grub/x86_64-efi/
26
27 Not sure whether or not this is relevant for your problem.

29 Sincerely,
