Hi,
1 - I was thinking of using a firewall on cd (creating myself) with
gentoo and iptables. If it is going to be used in a company (if properly
configured) would the result be the same as a checkpoint firewall ?
If you don't insist in using gentoo you could also use gibraltar (http://www.gibraltar.at) which is a debian based firewall on cd.
Generally for configuring the iptables rules I recommend using shorewall http://www.shorewall.net (there is an ebuild for it).

2- How do i save the logfiles of that firewall config, on the internal HD? and read them true ssh ?
To save the log files to the HD, I'm pretty sure all you'd need to do is create a filesystem on the hard drive, and set up /etc/fstab so it will be mounted at /var.
