If the issue is that your newly compiled kernel will not boot, then it can easily be fixed. Boot up with the liveCD, mount all drives manually on the /mnt/gentoo (don't forget the /proc), chroot and reconfigure the kernel, compile and install the new kernel. You can find the process in the online docs If it doesn't work again, then do it all over again. I would highly recommend that you always keep 1 working kernel on your system, and just append to grub or lilo rather than replace.
Good luck
Of course, make sure you mount the proper devices!
mount /dev/hdax /mnt/gentoo
mount /dev/hdax /mnt/gentoo/boot
mount -t proc none /mnt/gentoo/proc
chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash
env-update
source /etc/profile
