Hello,

I have installed Gentoo on my laptop, and installed grub according to instructions in the handbook. However, after first reboot grub menu did not appear and Windows 8 started as usual. Could you pleas direct me where could be the problem and how can I fix it?

Thanks in advance :)

I'm pretty sure you did this but did you setup your bios/uefi to boot gentoo instead of windows?

Post the output of ls /boot

Youll have to play with the boot options on the bios/uefi. For example disable the csm/legacy boot options and disable secure boot.

Yeah, I would switch from UEFI to legacy. In order to do so, you have to diable secureboot
