Does anybody read FAQ nowadays?!?

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. And all of these vital=20
documents are referenced on the main site http://www.gentoo.org).
