HI Rick,
Yes, Gentoo should run on it.
Use the plain x86 installer.

The only problem might be the new type of bios that is in the intel

Hi Antoine,

I guess it depends on GRUB and if it can install so it is found by the

Don't use bootsplash; that's obsolete. Instead, use just splash.
Emerge splash and whatever theme you want.
Emerge, if you haven't done so, genkernel.

It can be done, the best example of it being done is the NVidia kernel
