I found this useful when I was installing on my NAS box, a couple of them actually. I'm still on old fashioned BIOS but this may come in handy. It should work for EFI as well. From the install handbook. *Tip* If using Gentoo's install media, this step can be replaced with simply: arch-chroot /mnt/gentoo. If you are booting from one of the Gentoo boot media, that command should mount everything and chroot you into the system. All that mounting is a bit tedious at times. ;-) I'm not sure when that command got added but it is nice to have. You can find that in the chrooting section. Hope that helps. The next install if nothing else. Dale :-) :-)
