One small thing I noticed doing a Gentoo setup on UEFI ...

The VFAT driver ( in UEFI ) never loaded until Windows was installed on
a drive.
Almost as if the driver was checking for Windows before loading ...

Every attempt to do a Gentoo UEFI install FAILED, because the VFAT
driver would not load.

So ... Windows setup UEFI just fine. Gentoo is using GPT/GRUB.
Every time I boot, the "Boot Menu" gets used to choose the OS.
