This is the one page that I needed:

http://www.gentoo.org/doc/build.htm

And that page contains the recepie for taking hundreds of tasty tarballs
from each of the author's websites in an automated fashion into your own
customized distribution solution.  Shake well, burn it on a CD, and start
serving.  Once a basic system is prepared, the simplicity of the magical
installation scripts is presented in the /usr/portage directory.  Less
filling, tastes great.
