Ukusasazwa wagqiba iminyaka engama-20 ubudala. Ngo-Oktobha 4, 1999, uDaniel Robbins ubhalise isizinda se-gentoo.org kunye uphuhliso losasazo olutsha, apho, kunye noBob Mutch, wazama ukuhambisa ezinye izimvo kwiprojekthi yeFreeBSD, edibanisa nokuhanjiswa kwe-Enoch Linux eyayiphuhliswe malunga nonyaka, apho kwaqhutywa khona iimvavanyo ekwakheni i-enoch. usasazo oluqokelelweyo ukusuka kwizicatshulwa zomthombo kunye nolungelelwaniso lwesixhobo esithile. Into ephambili yeGentoo yayiyilwahlulo kwiichweba ezihlanganiswe kwikhowudi yomthombo (i-portage) kunye nenkqubo encinci yesiseko efunekayo ukwakha izicelo eziphambili zokusasazwa. Ukukhululwa kokuqala okuzinzile kweGentoo kwenzeka kwiminyaka emithathu kamva, ngoMatshi 31, 2002.
Ngo-2005, uDaniel Robbins , inikele ngepropathi yobukrelekrele enxulumene neGentoo kwiGentoo Foundation kwaye yakhokela iMicrosoft Linux kunye neLabhu yoMthombo oVulekileyo. Emva kweenyanga ezi-8 uDaniel evela kuMicrosoft, echaza eli nyathelo ngokungenzeki kokuqonda ngokupheleleyo izakhono zomntu. NgoMatshi ka-2007 uDaniel ukusebenza ekusasazeni iGentoo, kodwa kwiiveki ezimbini kamva ndanyanzelwa kwakhona , njengoko ndidibene nesimo sengqondo esibi kunye neengxabano phakathi kwabaphuhlisi beGentoo.
NgoJanuwari 2008, uDaniel wazama ukukhupha iprojekthi kwingxaki yolawulo, ngokwakhe njengoMongameli weGentoo Foundation (ngokusemthethweni unguye ) kunye imodeli yolawulo. Unyulo lwenzeka ngoMatshi, kodwa uDaniel inkxaso efanelekileyo, emva koko ekugqibeleni wabuyela umva kuphuhliso lweGentoo kwaye ngoku uphuhlisa ukuhanjiswa kovavanyo , ezama ukuphucula itekhnoloji esetyenziswa kwiGentoo.
