1 Hi,
2
3 Thank.
4 With the last SytemRescueCD (copied to an usb-stick) my efi bios see
5 that the usb-stick coulb be "efi-bootable". I see both HD and the USB
6 Devices in my "EFI Navigator"..
7
8 I can navigate within the SystemRescueCD trough my EFI "FileSystem
9 Navigator" . I cannot boot on this usb (open an .efi file), however. Now
10 I will check the files needed which was wrotten in my usb.
11
12 I guess that I must "transfer" the Gentoo 2012 dvd Image file to my
13 usb stick...but i dont know exact. I see an old procedure to put a cd
14 into an usb ...but i am not sure if it is same about to Gento 2012..
15
16 Or I must change the DVD Gentoo 2012 ISO Image (or an old version) to
17 includes an " efi-able" boot sector ... but i dont know how to
18 "rebuild" the iso image from a file system which includes the right dvd
19 boot sector.
