I learned from Gentoo too, after a failed start with RedHat. Basically you would learn from Gentoo's excellent documentation and from constantly breaking things

  From my experiences with Gentoo a couple of years ago, the documentation is mostly outdated, (although a number of articles have been updated to tell the reader that large portions of the article are out of date and not to be followed.) I eventually gave up working (and failing) with Gentoo at the time because I was rather inexperienced and could never get a working X system using their docs. That said, I still learned a lot about Linux during that period and do not feel as if I wasted that time spent working with Gentoo.
