Follow the manual _carefully_:

https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64

 * You want to do a 64-bit, "amd64" installation. Do _not_ use
   anything that says "i686" in the filename.

 * You need to read and understand every manual section before you do
   that section.

 * I highly recommend cuting/pasting the example commands from the
   manual into the terminal where you are doing the install (instead
   of typing them manually).

 * Make sure you start out booting some sort of _64_bit_ live ISO to do
   the install (either the Gentoo minimal install or systemrescuecd or
   whatever).

 * Verify the signatures of the downloaded files.
