[gentoo-user] Rebuilding world

[Colin]

I was messing around with my disk when Gentoo froze up on me.  I 
rebooted and got my system back up, but whenever I attempt an emerge, I 
get this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 10 in ?
 import portage
File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 7306, in ?
 do_upgrade(mykey)
File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 7244 in do_upgrade
 myworld=open("/"+WORLD_FILE,"w")
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '//var/lib/portage/world'

Well, apparently I destroyed Portage.  What now?
