=== Download a precompiled stage3 === Since many hardware related commands are not available inside a virtual server, there has been a patched version of baselayout known as baselayout-vserver. However, since baselayout-2/openrc, all required changes have been integrated, eliminating the need for separate vserver stages, profiles and baselayout. The only (temporary) drawback is that baselayout-2/openrc is still in testing (~arch) and there are no stages with baselayout-2/openrc available on the mirrors yet. As soon as baselayout-2/openrc is stable you can use a precompiled stage3 from one of the [http://www.gentoo.org/main/en/mirrors.xml Gentoo mirrors]. In the meantime please download a stage3 or gentoo-vserver stage from [http://bb.xnull.de/projects/gentoo/stages/ here]. Since a stage3 contains a complete root file system you can use the template build method of util-vserver. However, this method only works reliable since util-vserver-0.30.213_rc5, so make sure you have the right version installed. You have to choose a context ID for your vserver (dynamic context IDs are discouraged) as well as the necessary network device information (In this example eth0 is configured with 192.168.1.253/24 and the context ID is equivalent to the last two parts of the virtual servers IP).
