You can: a) download stage3 CD, that will have some "full" set of packages compile= d. or b) download any install CD (basic 16MB one is recommended) and then, download all the sources you want to install burn that on a CD (or put on any other media) when time comes (after unpacking stage1 or stage2/3 (whichever is used)),= just=20 put these sources under /usr/portage/distfiles. In order to get portage tree itself download daily portage archive (pleas= e see=20 FAQ or even install instructions for locations.
