14 William,

16 I've been there and done that. My firewall was blocking git as I
17 thought I had no use for it, so I got baselayout2 but not openrc.
18 openrc was only available from git in 2007
19 I was late, so I just switched off and went to bed.

21 I had to back out baselayout2 and do it again. Its was fairly easy for
22 me as I keep binpackages of everything I build. It still needed a
23 liveCD boot.
