Not  quite shure what you are driving at here???  Both LFS and gentoo
can be built without rebooting.

This sound incredibly hokey!!!  And the reason you would want to try
installing gentoo using a doubly chrooted environment from LFS is???

Gentoo always installs using a chrooted environment as does LFS, but
why on earth would you want to use one or the other to install the
other one?

If you want LFS or gentoo, set yourself up a partition for each,
install each from your running system using a spare tty, and alter
your lilo/grup setup after the installs are complete.
