I had a similar problem a few months ago, since you are able to see the grub menu and select an option, that's working fine, and since you don't seem to be getting to init, I don't think the @world upgrade is relevant, have you tried booting with the nomodeset flag on the kernel command line?
I didn't look at your kernel config but my problem was in the video drivers, In the framebuffer ones, I activated the framebuffer for efi, and my video card, also the generic one, they didn't play nice all at boot, and after some search i found out, I pretty much just wanted the xorg driver for my video card, so I disabled the kernel ones, this might be your case.

the config it ships with is bad.... doesnt make that dir
That's because it's created at startup by the service script, look at ${PORTDIR}/net-analyzer/smokeping/files/smokeping.init.3 :
19 start() { 20 checkconfig || return 1 21 22 if [ ! -d /run/smokeping/ ]; then 23 mkdir /run/smokeping/ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 24 fi 25 chown smokeping:smokeping /run/smokeping/ 26 27 ebegin "Starting smokeping" 28 LC_ALL=C \ 29 start-stop-daemon --start --name smokeping \ 30 --pidfile /run/smokeping/smokeping.pid \ 31 --exec /usr/bin/smokeping \ 32 --user smokeping:smokeping 33 eend $? 34 }You shouldn't be creating anything under /run/ manually, for starting any service, if you find yourself needing to do so, I'd call that a bug.

What were you trying to do?, looking at the Arch wiki smokeping is a webapp, and what you seemed to have done there, is nothing like configuring a webapp, apparently you should normally launch it as a service through /etc/init.d/. Also that Arch guide looks messed up and old, it still mentions /etc/rc.d and thats long gone from Arch, I would recommend you to go to the official ducumentation at the project site, it seemed OK, the ebuild in the tree is only a few days old, so its actively maintained on the Gentoo land. Anyway smokeping looks like an interesting tool, I might try it these days and give some feedback how it went.

I will add them then, after rendering some more resolutions.
I like the logo as a whole, so no Ideas on my part for replacing it, the only thing I don't like is that, if you want to make a small icon, or a squared one, you may want use only the 'F', but it alone looks too much like the Facebook's one, it isn't the same but the difference is too little, I will try to make some adjustments to the F to make it more 'original' and post it to see if the community likes it. -
Read my edit, the bellow paragraph was out of ignorance, of the recent events.
I use systemd and I don't think this will affect eudev nor anything using dbus, anyway let's not turn this about it(systemd), I've been reading some about kdbus and from what I've read there will be a userspace daemon that will be a drop-in replacement for dbus but using kdbus in the background, anyway eudev pretty much is just getting udev outside of the systemd source code tree(search the git logs and see for yourself), for building it alone, and kdbus is an IPC system inside the kernel it isn't part of systemd, so you I think you are worrying about nothing in this particular case.
If you are not one of those people allergic to Lennart, here's a good video with *Technical* information about kdbus[1][1] https://www.youtube.com/watch? v=NgR6d54blrU (join the space, the forum grabbed the video embedded with the complete URL)
Edit: I hadn't read your link, my bad, Well then there's things to worry about, for eudev, but I bet the the path will be to implement another kdbus userspace, but in my opinion while, this deafinitelly means a lot of work, it may not be a bad thing.

Hello funtooers, I have noticed the lack of Funtoo artwork in general, so I took some time to play around with blender and Inkscape to make some wallpapers(7).
In a search for a base image, I only encountered a small banner with the Funtoo logo, so I did a re-vectorization, and some slight line chages, and this is the outcome, the wallpapers are mostly minimalistic, Also link to a tar.xz with sources (.blend .svg) and pack png of renders in 1920x1080px, I encourage you to play around with the sources and post your results in this thread.
Here's a prewiew from imgur2d

PD: I would Also like to ask to the developers if this can go to the wiki? for those, newcomers that will want a funtoo wall for their desktops.

I've recently installed Funtoo on my laptop, and have a Gentoo desktop running systemd, I also managed to get it running on the laptop, and I'm satisfied with it, so far I haven't had troubles with systemd, and its nice having my laptop booting fast, among other things. systemd definitely works very different from openrc, but it does claims to be a different thing, so that just means you have to learn it, and it provides good documentation, In my opinion is not about 'getting used' is about being willing to learn it, if you will test it on your machine and then judge it.
A few years ago, I got away from ArchLinux when it did the switch, because I had issues when I upgraded to systemd, and at the time was not skilled enough to know how to get around those issues, and was not willing to learn about systemd, but a few months a go I decided to give it a second try, but this time, I actually was willing to learn it, and so far I'm happy with it.
PD:I know systemd is not supported here, and I'm on my own with issues I get for using it :).

Good you solved your problem, I think this is a bug in Funtoo, you should report it, I did my instalation of grub kinda like you, and usually update my configs manually(grub-mkconfig desn't do what I want), and I didn't use the funtoo boot scripts, so I can't confirm this.(Or maybe after all, it might be solved after a @world upgrade)
