Just a really quick introduction to lxc for gentoo
Raw
lxc_gentoo-day_1.md

sudo -i

emerge app-emulation/lxc

lxc-checkconfig

go set up your kernel for the security features it wants. make sure to back up your working version.

this is a quick hack, there are more formal methods and this is considered lazy, but it gets the job done:

echo "lxc.network.type none" > /etc/lxc/none.conf

it's supposed to grab this automatically but it was breaking for me:

tarball="*path/to/stage3.tar*" lxc-create -t gentoo -n *your_name* -f /etc/lxc/none.conf

wait...

chroot /var/lib/lxc/*your_name*/rootfs /bin/bash

passwd

create new password here

exit

lxc-start -n *your_name* -F

BOOM NEW SHELL IN REALLY SAFE KIND ENVIRONMENT
