Are you sure it is a case of needing to install the driver? I saw a Gentoo page which suggested that the driver you need should be in the kernel.

Your problem is perhaps more to do with you not having configured the network. ifconfig should tell you if there is a card detected (such as eth0).

Seeing as you're essentially playing with Gentoo now, read this. Instructions don't get much more step by step than that, I'd suggest reading pretty much the entire thing at least twice if you're going to stick with Sabayon and want to learn a few things for yourself.
