OK, I finally got room to install gentoo.

I did make one thing different than in the install guide; I used a 
single partition.

Problem: it won't boot fully.
It reaches the end of the scripts in runlevel 3 and just stops. 
Sometimes I get a message to hit enter to continue, but alas, nothing 
occurs. I can boot to single user mode, but nothing else. If I try to 
then switch to runlevel 3 it fails as noted above.

Any clues here?
