Sets are your friend here. I have a base set containing all the useful

eix, conf-update, portage-utils and emacs. Then I have sets for desktop,
laptop etc, each of which inherits the base set.

so it's pretty much a case of partition the disk, unpack the stage3,
emerge @laptop (or whatever, compile the kernel, configure the bootloader
and reboot.

Thanks for the tip Neil, I will take a look at this portage feature and will probably use it for building set for web server related software, mail server, desktop and so one...
