Installation concerns

Hi lads
I had installed Gentoo 2005 but haven't tried Gentoo for a while. Now I have the LiveCD installer and I want to do a stage 1 install since I find it really interesting. Now, here are the questions:
1 - Can I do all the installation of Stage 1 using the LiveCD graphical installer?
2 - I'm Persian so I want to name my folders in Persian. Now I remember I couldn't do this in Gentoo 2005. If it's still so how can I do this? I think it's about UTF-8 support but for which components? Kernel? Xorg? KDE? Or all of them?
Thanks for any reply in advance.I'm not a lazy bones so if there are any docs for these questions just give me the link (Gentoo is famous for the RTFM kind of replies, I know).

Installing from stage1 is no longer supported. The default method is now a stage3 install. If however you still wish to perform one can read How do I Install Gentoo Using a Stage1 or Stage2 Tarball?. Otherwise just follow the Gentoo Handbook.
