Some other distributions including Fedora already distribute images needed to bootstrap a live or installation CD but with Gentoo it's necessary to (1) extract kernel, initrd and squashfs from the live CD, (2) patch initrd contents and (3) merge squashfs into initrd. Only then it is possible to configure a PXE based boot loader that will load the images and boot into a live system.
