I don't know much about lvm, but as far as getting a kernel that works, have 
you tried copying your Debian kernel's .config file into 
gentoo's /usr/src/linux/.config and then cd /usr/src/linux and run make 
oldconfig?  Finish it off with make && make modules_install.  Then copy the 
kernel image, System.map to your boot and edit your grub.conf to point it 
there.  Genkernel if full of fat most of which you probably don't need 
anyway.

HTH.
