You could boot _any_ linux distribution that fits on a single floppy
as long as it has networking support. There is nothing special about
the gentoo live cd - it is just a kind of rescue cd with a gentoo
splash image ;)
Just google (www.google.com/linux) for an one-disk distribution or
search on ibiblio.org.
Remember, you need networking support and support for the file system
you want gentoo to run with (ext2/3, reiserfs, xfs, jfs, ...). I would
suggest starting with ext2 and convert it later on to ext3 (tune2fs).
