Here's the condensed Gentoo install (AMD64):
1. Boot the minimal ISO
2. Network
# If using DHCP:
dhcpcd
# If static:
ip link set eth0 up
ip addr add 192.168.1.100/24 dev eth0
ip route add default via 192.168.1.1
3. Partition disks
# Using GPT + UEFI:
 parted -a optimal /dev/sda
 mklabel gpt
 mkpart primary 1MiB 513MiB    # EFI system partition
 mkpart primary 513MiB 100%    # root
 set 1 esp on
 quit
mkfs.vfat /dev/sda1
mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda2
mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/gentoo
mkdir /mnt/gentoo/efi
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/gentoo/efi
4. Stage 3
cd /mnt/gentoo
# Pick a mirror from https://www.gentoo.org/downloads/
wget https://distfiles.gentoo.org/releases/amd64/autobuilds/current-stage3-amd64-openrc/stage3-amd64-openrc-*.tar.xz
tar xpvf stage3-*.tar.xz --xattrs-include='*.*' --numeric-owner
5. Configure Portage
nano /mnt/gentoo/etc/portage/make.conf
Add:
COMMON_FLAGS="-march=native -O2 -pipe"
MAKEOPTS="-j$(nproc)"
6. Chroot
cp --dereference /etc/resolv.conf /mnt/gentoo/etc/
mount --types proc /proc /mnt/gentoo/proc
mount --rbind /sys /mnt/gentoo/sys
mount --make-rslave /mnt/gentoo/sys
mount --rbind /dev /mnt/gentoo/dev
mount --make-rslave /mnt/gentoo/dev
chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash
source /etc/profile
export PS1="(chroot) ${PS1}"
7. Sync and update
emerge-webrsync
emerge --sync
eselect profile list  # pick a profile
eselect profile set <number>
8. Kernel
# Option A: Distribution kernel (easier)
emerge sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel-bin
# Option B: Manual (genkernel)
emerge sys-kernel/gentoo-sources sys-kernel/genkernel
genkernel all
9. fstab (/etc/fstab)
/dev/sda2   /   ext4   defaults   0 1
/dev/sda1   /efi   vfat   defaults   0 2
10. System config
echo "hostname=myhost" > /etc/conf.d/hostname
emerge --config netifrc
nano /etc/conf.d/net  # if static: config_eth0="192.168.1.100/24"
ln -s /etc/init.d/net.lo /etc/init.d/net.eth0
rc-update add net.eth0 default
passwd
11. Bootloader (GRUB)
emerge sys-boot/grub
grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/efi
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
12. Reboot
exit
umount -l /mnt/gentoo/dev{/shm,/pts,}
umount -R /mnt/gentoo
reboot
