I successfully got Gentoo running on my Dell laptop based on a stage3
install.  I have no networking yet because my linksys wireless pcmcia
card wont work out of the box.  I've downloaded the drivers to floppy
and need to install.

The mtools (like mcopy, etc) do not come with the default install.  They
come with the mtools package in app-admin/tools and are included with
CD2 of the LiveCD set.  How can I install these?  I copied all the CD2
packages to /usr/portage/packages and I tried running "emerge -k
app-admin/mtools" but its trying to go download the package from the
internet.

How can I force it to install from the local disk?

Thanks,

- Brent
