Why did you need to chroot, just boot your normal system without X (add
gentoo=nox to the kernel paramaters).

Didn't remember the option in these times of panic (I had some task to achieve 
rapidly). It's now an entry in grub.conf

Don't let the ridiculous version number fool you, 2.2 has been
generally usable for a couple of years.

Oooops, I stupidly thought that "alpha" in version name, which usually doesn't 
appear, meant a specially risky version in alpha state... Silly me.
