just one more time to get some forgotten data off its hard drives. I just had
to try it out.
Anyway, one thing lead to another and now I have a 2003 Gentoo install as a

except 10
files. It boots, GNOME and KDE run, it won't play blurays but it has a few bits
missing,
so its not quite original.
Here's where I reed your help. The missing distfiles are

If your Gentoo history goes back as far as mine and you still have those files,
please
share them with me.
I regret that I did not understand GNU/Linux back in 2003 to help you.
This is indeed a cool project to celebrate your 18th anniversary of
Gentoo ;) Please share some videos after you finish that.

Benda,
It works now, its just not quite authentic. Follow the instructions in
the wiki page I linked, or if you can't wait, there is a link to a root
filesystem image for Virtualbox. I have hosted all the source files I
have found, so go ahead and do a 2003 stage1 install.
KDE is 3.1.1 not 3.1.1a
pam_login is 3.11, not 3.10.
net-tools-1.60-gentoo-extra.tar.bz2 I had to remake, based on the
comments in the ebuild. The file size and md5sum don't match but I used
2021 tar to put the bits together.
XFree is there, just not the version portage wanted to install.
