11 Two systems - one upgraded to systemd, one new install with systemd:
12 Two kernels for each system: - "CONFIG_GENTOO_LINUX_INIT_SYSTEMD=y" is
13 enabled on one kernel for each system and "
14 #CONFIG_GENTOO_LINUX_INIT_SYSTEMD is not set" disabled on one kernel for
15 each system
16 Both kernels boot for each system.
17 Systemd initializes gentoo for the systemd enabled kernels
18 Openrc initializes gentoo for the systemd disabled kernels
19 BTW Gnome 3.8 runs on both systemd initialized and openrc initialized
20 systems.
