I'll put that on my todo list. Try to do that when I know I'll need to reboot or something. >> My CPU seems to be running about 20F cooler now. > Cool! Ha! Quite literally. ;-) Have you seen this before? (chroot) livecd /usr/src/linux # dracut --kver=$(cat include/config/kernel.release) dracut[I]: Executing: /usr/bin/dracut --kver=6.9.4-gentoo dracut[F]: Can't write to /efi/dba652170b7a716f303c3c5966799436/6.9.4-gentoo: Directory /efi/dba652170b7a716f303c3c5966799436/6.9.4-gentoo does not exist or is not accessible.

The efi partition is mounted rw and is vfat. Right? I used touch to create a test file and it created the file in /efi from within the chroot environment just fine. It seems dracut has a issue tho. I went back through the docs and don't see anything I missed but I don't see what it is that creates what dracut is looking for either. This is the correct file structure??
