Please don't take this the wrong way, but I was a little surprised
that someone who has difficulty reading man pages, and can't burn CDs
from the command line would go for gentoo!

I wouldn't recommend gentoo to anyone who hasn't got a basic
understanding/grounding in linux at least. I'm not trying to belittle
your efforts, just that I forsee further frustration down the road..
