OK, tell me to RTFM if you like, however I have read the doc on the
gentto website regarding emerge and have not found an answer.

I know that a 'emerge -uDp world' will list all the packages I need to
install/update. Does 'world' include 'system' or do I need to do that
seperately?

Secondly, downloading all the packages over a 56k modem is a
non-starter. Espcially as I only have one phone line and a chatty wife.
;). Is there a tool I could use to download the packages listed by
'emerge -uDp world' onto my Debian box at work.

If so I could then burn these packages to a CD and then install from the
CD.

Cheers

Dg
