Gentoo has three stages - basically starting points. Stage 1 is real basic - it gives you a base system, enough to create a system and then proceed on. Yes, stage 1 is a bootstrap process. Stage 2 and 3 tarballs have more stuff compiled in them so you loose optimizations but you have a more complete system.
If you start from stage 1 you have to do what is essentially stage 2 and 3 but you don't use the tarballs - you just emerge system and then emerge world which gives you stage 2 and 3.
