I'd recommend 2007 based on the below. I put 2007.0 on my PII 233 last
fall. It does take a while, but it really didn't take that much longer
than my AMD64 build - though, I don't think I put KDE on it, which I did
on the AMD64. YMMV.
FYI - you can always upgrade the 2007 profile to 2008. I just did that
on my AMD64. And its a pretty smooth and slick process - I had always
rebuilt a box to change distros before (usually after a few years of use
and upgrades and not rebuilding just to change the distro either) so it
was a first for me. So don't be afraid to use the 2007.

2008 is still in beta, but it should still work. I'd use 2007.0. Also, i
sure hope you have a box setup for distcc. compiling gentoo on these
old/slow procs could take days.

Hello,
I have an assortment of p1, p2 and old amd K6 (586) class machines.
Do the 2008.0 iso beta 2 cover this arch?
If not, what is the recommend minimal cd to use to install these
machines?
