 +Errors on startup about system not having been booted with systemd. This is a problem with the dracut initrd.
 +
 +Manual boot:
 +  * Edit grub kernel commandline to add ''rd.break=pre-mount'' and remove ''quiet splash''
 +  * At the prompt, run: <code bash>
 +zpool import rpool
 +zfs load-key rpool/root
 +# Enter encryption passphrase
 +mount -t zfs -o zfsutil rpool/root /sysroot
 +mount -t zfs -o zfsutil rpool/root/home /sysroot/home
 +mount -t zfs -o zfsutil rpool/root/var /sysroot/var
 +mount -t zfs -o zfsutil rpool/root/docker /sysroot/var/lib/docker
 +exit

 +  * After boot, regenerate the initrd <code bash>
 +dracut -f /boot/initramfs-genkernel-5.4.0-sabayon 5.4.0-sabayon
 +</code>
 +
 +Known issues:
 +  * Infinite loop of something complaining about system not having been booted with systemd, dbus error: Initramfs was built without systemd support, and needs rebuilding
 +  * Error that ''\'rpool/root\''' contains invalid characters and is not a valid filesystem name: ''/usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/90zfs/mount-zfs.sh'' contains errant single quotes, which need to be removed. Rebuild the initrd afterwards: <code bash>

 +                                        --cmd "zfs load-key '${ENCRYPTIONROOT}'"
 +# Should be:
 +                                ask_for_password \
 +                                        --tries 5 \
 +                                        --prompt "Encrypted ZFS password for ${ENCRYPTIONROOT}: " \
