Not a whole lot.  For example, I had never used "chroot" before or even 
compiled a kernel.  All you need is the ability to follow the excellent 
step by step directions in the documentation.  Well, that's not exactly 
true.  You will also need time, since there is a lot of compiling to do. 
  But it is really worth it.  I guarantee once you try Gentoo you will 
never look back.
