What is the exact command you executed? Neither 'emerge --ask sys-kernel/gentoo sources' nor 'emerge --ask sys-kernel/gentoo' is a valid command.

I would say that valid command is
Code:
emerge --ask sys-kernel/gentoo-sources

I executed the command: emerge --ask sys-kernel/gentoo-sources
and it didn't work. It might be broken or the handbook is obsolete.

Is there a way to install the kernel without this command?

No. Try this:
Code:
emerge -pv gentoo-sources

Does it work ?
If yes, do this:
Code:
emerge gentoo-sources

Justastranger,

What does nothing mean?

... error ValueError (''No Closing Quotation'')
may come from a typo in
Code:
make.conf

Please post the content of /etc/portage/make.conf so we can look it over.
