Hey Don

 I've gone through this myself being a Linux newbie and tackling Gentoo
. The best thing I did when rebuilding after a hdd loss was to use a
Knoppix live cd, and then through that setting up Gentoo. While running
in the Knoppix live cd , I was able to be online and talking with a
couple of very seasoned Gentoo guys on Freenode irc server in the
#Gentoo room, Freenode server is where everything and everyone Linux is
at.  Tons of good Gentoo people there to help . Give me an email direct
if you wish , would be fun to talk to you on the phone also about our
adventures in Gentoo.
