You can tell portage to build binary packages, and then decompress those |
| 2 |
packages to get all the files you need specifically for that package. You can |
| 3 |
also build a whole gentoo system and then remove /usr/portage (about 1Gb), this |
| 4 |
will leave you with something very close to a LSF (linux from scratch) system |
| 5 |
but with few minor gentoo files. |

|
| 7 |
In both cases, maintenance will be your main problem (upgrades mostly) and |
| 8 |
unless you don't mind having a system that is hard/impossible to upgrade, I |
| 9 |
would look into that also! |
