The problem with the isohybrid approach is that it doesn't support UEFI booting

Please send a patch to the gentoo-catalyst@ list which adds this as
an optional step in the catalyst livecd2
iirc the minimal install CD ISO is capable of booting from a USB device or any
removable media by just running the following commands.
# isohybrid image.ISO
# did if=image.ISO of=/dev/sdb bs=8192k
sdb being your removable device. Also keep in mind that any data on sdb will be
wiped after runni

I think we should consider things that break anything serious
regressions.
Why should release media be more special than anything else?

Does it really have to be useflag? Can't we simply just install the
file every time like we do with everything else? Logrotate/normal
initscripts/etc/etc.
There should be no issue with that if we install the service files
every time, they just take few kbs in /etc/
A growing number of packages use USE=systemd in a semi-controlled way.
Therefore, I suggest establishing a global flag described as:
systemd - Enable use of systemd-specific libraries and services like
socket activation or session tracking
$ quse -D systemd
local:systemd:app-admin/openrc-setti
