We have a wiki page for it [1] that I'm awaiting review on for my edited version[2], which briefly goes over the steps needed to setup Gentoo without systemd. In short: eselect profile list (choose one that doesn't have 'systemd' in its name) eselect profile set [profile-number] make.conf: USE="$USE -systemd" (sidenote: is logind a USE flag yet?) package.mask: sys-apps/systemd sys-fs/udev Remerging virtual/udev after configuring the above will pull in sys-fs/eudev, which is a drop-in replacement for systemd-udev. Be sure to merge your preferred init, and systemd will be removed on the next depclean (if present and not in a set somewhere like @world).
