interesting thank you. that works on the converted guest... on the new 32bit 
guest i made up originally to experiment with openrc/baselayout-2, i find it 
must use gentoo init style because it times out if using plain init style... 
this one i took a regular stage3 2008.0 standard gentoo i686 file, extracted 
it, installed baselayout2 and openrc and followed the openrc instructions in 
gentoo docs... i notice a major difference between the new one and the older 
one i converted last and that is the newer one has tty entries in the process 
listing. something ive never seen in a guest before.

should i lock out the tty entries? or should i just try to remember that any 
new guests made with the 2008.0 template need gentoo init while any 
baselayout2/openrc conversions of previous but updated guests need plain 
init? could get a bit complicated..
