These are very small. 100meg. If you can boot with them, then maybe  
you can put the stage3 file on a USB memory stick or something. Use  
the one from the DVD you have already.

I was going to say "and the current .iso is 6 days newer than the 10.1  
DVD", but it looks like that's been taken down now. Since the 10.1 DVD  
is only a few days newer than the 10 DVD, I'm inclined to assume there  
have been problems with recent builds. Therefore I would suggest  
trying the 20090915.iso if you can possibly afford a 100meg download.  
That's in <http://mirrors.kernel.org/gentoo/releases/$XXX/autobuilds/20090910/ 
 > where XXX=x86 or XXX=amd64
20090915 seems to be the latest autobuild currently on the mirrors.
