Sorry thinking about this problem at work, I'm using my cellphone. Won't
get home until 1am.

I run Gentoo.
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Syslinux#Setup_on_EFI_systems

is my distribution instructions on installing Syslinux.

http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php?title=Install#UEFI
are your instructions.

I have tried both instructions only to get a blank or black screen.

Trying to make a bootable usb that will boot with efi so I can run
efibootmgr.

Just wondering which is correct, or should I uninstall gentoo's Syslinux,
download it and compile it, and follow your website's instructions. Not
having much luck in their forums.
