36 About boot... :/ It still not working. I boot from sysresccd, make a:
37
38 grub2-install /dev/sdb
39
40 And give me this output:
41 Path `/boot/grub` is not redeable by GRUB on boot. Installation
42 is impossible. Aborting
43
44 So, I try to do the same, but in chroot.
45 I mount everything (Including proc and sys), and:
46 chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash
47 grub2-install --target x86_64-efi /dev/sdb //Without
48 target gives another error
49
50 And grub2-install says:
51 Fatal: Couldn't open either sysfs or procfs directories for
52 accesing EFI variables.
53 Try `modprobe efivars` as root.
54 (Same than before)
55
56 I was searching on google and I find various similar topics [1]. It
57 recomend to mount proc and sys, but I already do thath... (unless I do that
58 wrong)
59
60 Somes ideas? :/
