Gentoo Minimal Install CD
You can reach the Gentoo minimal install CD for installing gentoo on your computer. The reason, why I release an "unofficial" gentoo install cd is, the last version is the 2007.0, which old enough (but still working well of course) and since than, the recent kernel supports more hardware.
And other things, see on the gentoo-user mailing list.

Stage packages for starting
The version of the last available installation media is 2007.0. This is not a really big problem, because installing a new system means we compile everything, so, fresh stage package is not a critical condition.
If somebody needs to install gentoo systems frequently, one must compile everything to get an up to date system. One possible solution is to use a fresh stage package (stage3 or stage4) which is a good basis to build up new systems. This procedure should be automated, so, if one start it at night, the next morning starts better with a fresh stage :)
Below you can find my stage3 package, which is made for my own, but I share it with the community and I hope, this is useful for others too.
My plan is with this stage to refresh it periodicaly, once a month or similar.
Due to some practical reason, I do not make stage1 and stage2 packages, sorry. If there are enough request, it is possible to change my mind, so, vote for it if you need.
