I'm sorry. I'm using gmail now, and because a mistake I sent this
message to your personal mail :P. I had pressed "answer" button, and I
didn't see It was answering to you instead to mail list. I so sorry.

------------------ The original message

Thank you for answer!
If I dont misunderstand, I need to build a binary file called
xen-4.2.efi, for example. And put it on /boot/efi.

When I emerged xen, the file was built. So I've this file now.:

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2134522 mar 24 07:38 /boot/efi/gentoo/xen-4.3.1.efi

But is a binary file. How can I modify it to make it like the post says?

I attached the binary file to mail.

Thank you! I'm sorry if I have mistakes, i don't speak english. Google
translate is helping me a little jaja.

---------------------
I deleted the binary, and as you said in the answer to my fail-mail,
this is no necessary. I did not know if publish it in first place jeje

Sorry for my newbies mistake :P
