I remember some discussion on GNAP and the fact that some were

of the efforts to update GNAP and when possible it might

You could also have a look at alpine linux, a gentoo based distro aimed
for older PC's.
Alpine does look interesting, but, it looks more like a Debian derivative:

Any other gentoo derivatives out there, aimed at older hardware?
Hey,
why not simply role your own?
I'm running a KVM (qemu) System with all the optimization supported by my old
like (eeepc) hardware.
- create all the tbz2 you need (on the KVM or real host)
- run genpkgindex
- copy all the files to your webserver
- create a squashfs from your portage tree (<40Mb)
- boot your old system from cd or usb and extract a stage3 file
- edit the make.conf and make sure to define PORTAGE_BINHOST
- define an INSTALL_MASK if you like
- delete all files in /usr/portage and mount the squashfs porttree
- finally emerge all the stuff you need (emerge -G bla)
If you are interested in more details Ill write a howto in the next few weeks.
