I managed to depclean my gentoo-sources away and 4.18.5 is no longer supported so I'm upgrading to 4.20.3.

root #make syncconfig

Asked too many quesions one by one. So then I ran make olddefconfig and looked at the diffs:

root #make olddefconfig

Also turned on NTFS and FUSE

root #genkernel --install all

Genkernal hangs at Cleaning:

* Gentoo Linux Genkernel; Version 3.5.3.3
* Running with options: --install all

* Using genkernel.conf from /etc/genkernel.conf

Got it to work with:

root #genkernel --kernel-config=../linux-4.20.3-gentoo/.config --install --no-clean all

Added sources to the world file so it wouldn't be deleted again:

root #emerge -n sys-kernel/gentoo-sources:4.20.3
