custom gentoo installer

Hello,

 I would like to create a simple custom installer, which
automaticly
install a 'developer' machine, with some custom package
(eclipse,
mysql, firefox, openoffice-bin), preferrably from binary
packages, for
fast install.  Unfortunately the documentation of catalyst
is parse,
(somewhere it's explicitly declared as 'obsolete' or
'outdated') and I
can't found any simple tutorial which command to execute.
 Is it possible with catalyst? If yes, how? The files at
/usr/share/doc/catalyst- 2.0.2/examples were not very
helpful. For me,
it's not clear what to modify and how.

Catalyst has very little to do with the installer. If you
want to modify the 
installer, you are completely on your own.
