Description Clemente Aguiar 2013-08-29 20:25:41 UTC 
The wiki for systemd (http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Systemd#Installation) defines a set of option which are required and recommended to be set on the kernel.
It is my opinion that these options should be default on genkernel.
My current version of genkernel is genkernel-3.4.45.1, and not all options get set.

Reproducible: Always

Watch out with IPV6 though, see bug #481998.

TomWij:
That page no longer mentions what options are needed.

Can you please comment on the options needed now, so that genkernel can be unmasked on the systemd profile?
