You'll need the minimal install cd.  See:
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=1&chap=2#doc_chap2-
the handbook covers both the liveCD install and the minimal cd
install.
Here's a link to the minimal cd for x86:
http://bouncer.gentoo.org/fetch/gentoo-2007.0-minimal/x86/ - or if you don't
use x86, see: http://www.gentoo.org/main/en/where.xml

The text-based install is not automated like most of the gui installer. The
text-based install does not give you a bootable, gui-based system; you have
to build it yourself.  But I assure you, you will learn a lot more by doing
so, and you'll have a lean system built to the way you want it.  This used
to be the only method for any install until the gui installer came along.

Sounds like a problem with it detecting your video card or your monitor.  I'd 
suggest doing the text-based install instead.

- Mark Shields Because after my monitor turn to standby mode, after a few 
seconds there is a sound from my graphic card. How do i actually do the 
text-based install? from the  guideline handbook only show how to install by 
using gui.

Thank you
