For next time you want to chroot:

First mount /dev/sdaX /mnt gentoo and then mount /proc and /dev just
like the manual says.

After that mount all the other partitions.

You would not have a problem with /boot.

This is because /proc contains info on environment variables and
devices mounted, hardware configuration, etc Without it the kernel
functionality is not complete and errors will show up sooner or later.
 Ditto with /dev.
