Hi, You want to do a complete install? I'd make a directory /pentium-machine, boot from the CD, mount the disk at /mount/gentoo and furtheron do everything due to a normal install - just for /mnt/gentoo/pentium-machine. Then I'd chroot to /mnt/gentoo/pentium-machine and finish the install with the environment fiddling former mentioned. Exit chroot, make a backup of /mnt/gentoo/pentium-machine and restore this backup to the Pentium.
That should be all you need.
