If your system is still functional enough, back up your /var/lib and
/etc directories to possibly save yourself a bunch of reconfiguration
and re-installing.
You'll probably have to...
* create the install ISO (CD or USB stick)
* boot from it
* swapon /dev/sdxn (where "sdxn" is your swap partition)
* if you're running 64-bit AMD/Intel, follow the instructions in sections 4.f and 5.b of http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-amd64.xml?full=1#book_part1_chap5
* if you're running 32-bit AMD/Intel, follow the instructions in sections 4.f and 5.b of http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?full=1#book_part1_chap5
