Basically, the user creates the partition, filesystems, and configures the network and the compilation flags, and then let Portage do its work. The user also compiles the kernel, installs a bootloader and the stuff that is necessary (i.e. a system logger and optionally a cron daemon), then it can reboot as in that moment it's considered the installation ended.
There is one more Pro thing, I learned very good how to install a system without using any kind of installer.
Gentoo has no installer?
P.S. I am a former Gentoo user. But since I don't have the time to be bothered with compiling I prefered Debian, although I still compile my own kernel.
