You don't have root access, so you are done playing... right? Did I miss something? I recall on my Mac I didn't have root, but did have sudo... so, "sudo bash -l" was how I did everything, and how I would have expected to do gentoo prefix. [So, kinda as "root". Utterly violating the point of not having root access, I suppose...] No idea if this could be any help at all. Anyway, good luck!
