I had to change the use flags

sys-kernel/installkernel        -dracut -systemd

With "dracut", it now ran dracut automatically, duplicating my install
script.

With "systemd", it installed the new kernel in a subdirectory of /boot,
named by 32 random hex characters and also created a "loader"
subdirectory.
