Thx for a greate documentaion btw.
At that point, you have already chrooted and /mnt/gentoo... is no longer available. /usr/share... is the right path If /proc/config.gz was not available, I guess you forgot to mount proc on /mnt/gentoo/proc before chrooting. I have just tested in a chrooted environment (I'm busy doing installs) and it works. Marking as invalid, please reopen in required.
