It is in the Gentoo handbook.

Anyway as root, mount your cdrom then type the following:

ls /mnt/cdrom

export PKGDIR="/mnt/cdrom/packages" (If it is in a directory)

export PKGDIR="/mnt/cdrom"

Now install a package you want by typing:

emerge --usepkg kde (This is an example)


Refer to the handbook for more details or type:

man emerge
man portage
man ebuild

You can also make it stop emerging if it can't find it on CD, like this (just taken from the manpage):or, it's doing the same if you run:
