I am on my second build, and this time I am installing gentoo on an ssd that will go in another machine, so I decided to go with a distribution kernel. I am also using an efit stub instead of grub this time, so I followed the instructions from this section of the gentoo handbook https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64/Installation/Kernel#EFI_stub and added all of the necessary options to package.accept_keywords and package.use. I also added ugrd as a USE flag for installkernel, as I am using ugrd to generate the initramfs.

Next, I moved on to the distribution kernels section. I did not do either of the optional steps prior to the the 'Installing' portion, because I plan to setup secure boot later. I ran
Code:
emerge --ask sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel-bin


Code:
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
Dependency resolution took 8.31 s (backtrack: 0/20).

Not sure if I missed a step or am misreading, any help is appreciated.

I think /proc is not mounted into your chroot. But anyway these checks should be non-fatal, the problem is that the ebuild is checking if your kernel supports efi stub booting, but the kernel has not been installed yet.

I'll fix it now, please re-sync in ~30-60 minutes and then retry.

Thanks! I checked the github for uefi-mkconfig, and it seems it was a matter of not having /run mounted.
