Download the Stage 2 iso. Make partitions for /, /usr/, /usr/local, /var,
/tmp, /boot, /home. Install from teh ISO follwo teh instructions. This
does'nt need any special docs. Once the install is done, set lilo/grub to
boot multiple OSes.

Gentoo on a CD does'nt make sense. The objective is to build a distro for
your PC, facilitated by Gentoo. Anyway, wait for release 1.4

Also, if you are looking a decent linux "warrior" install, look at
http://www.yoper.com, Sorcerer Linux and Crux.

cheers
