Manik, to be sure what drive will be needed to set up at make.conf file, 
follow the recommendations of this link:

http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/xorg-config.xml

Particularly  this instruction:

emerge -pv xorg-server


Try to use it starting with your LIVECD or LIVEDVD again, follow the instructions for QUICK-INSTALL link as below:

http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoo-x86-quickinstall.xml

and after chrooting try with above command (you no need reinstall nothing again, just to need to follow the steps to chrooting and network drivers if it is necessary)    

emerge -pv xorg-server

It should show what LIVE CD detected.

Then change in accordance with it your make.conf file

You can change the make.conf file mean while you are using the livecd at /etc/make.conf (chrooted) or at /mnt/gentoo/etc/make.conf from another console of LIVE CD
Reboot your system and that's all. (don't forget unmount all devices that you mount in this process in order to avoid any damage).
Good luck
Sigfrido
