   You would need to do something like:   
      
   dd if=image.iso of=/dev/sdb   
      
   keep in mind that this will destroy any information you may have on that hard   
   drive (in this example the secondary hard drive).   
      
   If you want to make a proper installation, then follow the instructions in the   
   installation handbook:   
   http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-amd64.xml   
      
   If you don't want to spend time compiling, then I suggest you use Sabayon   
   Linux, which is a binary based distribution based on Gentoo:
