Also I should mention even though I set PKGDIR to /mnt/cdrom or /mnt/cdrom/distfiles it tries to go to the net to get it and fails.

mount you cdrom to a mount point
then copy the tar.bz file from the cd to your /usr/portage/distfiles
change your PKGDIR back to where it was..
As long as you have the correct file copied it will find it - if it is a older version that your portage is looking for you could boot from the live CD, mount your /mnt/gentoo direcroy and using links you can find the correct file on the internet, download it to your /mnt/gentoo/usr/portage/distfiles directory..

Or you could try emerge =thecorrectversionforyourebuild

Thanks for the reply. Also useful note is that all MD5 checksums and tar.gz files should be copied too to /usr/portage/disfiles from install cd.
