If you want to install gentoo as fast as possible, then just use the boot CD, and copy it across to your HDD. There's no immediate need to compile, and the system will be running in less than an hour. > I would love to get a Gentoo system running however resources are > short, (time and money.) As I've said before, Installing Gentoo on a semi-current machine shouldn't take any longer than installing anything else, once you include downloading/burning/etc time. Your best bet is to do a stage 3 install, and use the automated tool to build the kernel. It's done quick, and generally pretty good, at the cost of some optimizations that don't matter a WHOLE lot anyway.
