Hello,
The differences are explained in the wiki, mostly you'll chroot from another system to the futur location of Gentoo. Very few difference, you won't have the command "arch-chroot" and you'll have to setup the chroot with the bunch on command into the handbook.
Read it, several times if needed, and ask if you are blocked :).
Regards,
GASPARD DE RENEFORT Kévin

don_cever,
Welcome to Gentoo.
Before you start on the handbook, you need one extra command.
As root, run | Code: | | mkdir -p /mnt/gentoo |
Other live systems do not provide that mount point, which is where your Gentoo install will be attached until it can boot.
The handbook assumes that exists.

And just don't forget this:
| Code: | Warning
When using non-Gentoo installation media, this might not be sufficient. Some distributions make /dev/shm a symbolic link to /run/shm/ which, after the chroot, becomes invalid. Making /dev/shm/ a proper tmpfs mount up front can fix this:
root #test -L /dev/shm && rm /dev/shm && mkdir /dev/shm
root #mount --types tmpfs --options nosuid,nodev,noexec shm /dev/shm
Also ensure that mode 1777 is set:
root #chmod 1777 /dev/shm /run/shm |
Which is anyway in the gentoo handbook. ^^ |
