You can: |
| 12 |
a) download stage3 CD, that will have some "full" set of packages compiled. |
| 13 |
or |
| 14 |
b) download any install CD (basic 16MB one is recommended) |
| 15 |
and then, download all the sources you want to install |
| 16 |
burn that on a CD (or put on any other media) |
| 17 |
when time comes (after unpacking stage1 or stage2/3 (whichever is used)), just |
| 18 |
put these sources under /usr/portage/distfiles. |
| 19 |
In order to get portage tree itself download daily portage archive (please see |
| 20 |
FAQ or even install instructions for locations. And all of these vital |
| 21 |
documents are referenced on the main site http://www.gentoo.org). |
