So, if I grab the latest 2008.0 stage 3 gentoo tarball, extract it, chroot
into it, and install openrc, it should be good to use as a guest?

So, if I grab the latest 2008.0 stage 3 gentoo tarball, extract it,
chroot into it, and install openrc, it should be good to use as a guest?

i think some time ago there was a package available that would take
a current standard stage3 and convert it to vserver. is that still
around if i need to go that route?
had a short chat with Daniel, and we came to the
conclusion that any gentoo stage3 should work
with recent util-vserver and the 'gentoo' build
method ...
any stage3 with baselayout-2/openrc will work out of the box
see https://my.newthinking.de/~bbo/stages/ for up to date stage4 tarballs (these are the ones i use for work, so they contain some basic utils)
