Hi bean,

I am such an idiot!

I just placed the menu folder in the wrong directory. Placed it in
/efi/grub on the MacOS partition. Once I've placed the folder on the
whole path from / to /efi/grub and now it's working! Looks great.

I really ope you didn't work on that problem, today.

I have an idea what might be wrong in my gentoo kernel. I hope I find
the time for a little bit of testing, tomorrow.
