there's no need for Boot to be journaled - use ext2 !
 
but, it's possible, i assume.
 
for UEFI, you need a FAT 32 Boot partition.

I just found that there's a link to find distros without systemd on Distrowatch.  I checked it out, curious to see where Funtoo would fall in the list.

Surprisingly it wasn't listed at all.  Looking at Funtoo's entry, I see that's because they have Funtoo listed as including systemd version 232.  Obviously they're just pulling the package list and systemd is there via Gentoo even though it's masked.
 
That's unfortunate.  If distrowatch provided a link I have to think that they've seen an interest.  Given the way the information is gathered I don't have any bright ideas on how to get it included.  It would seem appropriate to at least mention in the description that Funtoo is systemd-free.

I tried  install Funtoo according tutorial from official website  http://www.funtoo.org/Install
and this tutorial : 
and everything went very well , ... until chrooting 
i got answer : ... can not run ... bin bash, .. any error  ... ( ? )
and even appear change (before #) on (chroot) but later i couldn't do nothing
I also tried  apply above advanced commands ( # env ...  ... bash -1 )
and without succes too :-( 
I can join screens

What I did for my chroot is more in line with the Gentoo style.
mount -t proc /proc /mnt/funtoo/proc
mount --rbind /dev /mnt/funtoo/dev
mount --make-rslave /mnt/funtoo/dev
mount --rbind /sys /mnt/funtoo/sys
mount --make-rslave /mnt/funtoo/sys
chroot /mnt/funtoo /bin/bash
This works fine for me; doing it in accordance with the docs didn't maintain my network connection for some reason. Maybe this is a bad way to chroot, but I hope this helps someone.

Hi there!
I'm new to funtoo - to linux too to be honest... :-)
I tried an installation according to the section "install" at the website.
Everything worked until i came to the headline "chroot into Funtoo"; actualy in this part it's NOT
mentioned how to chroot in the new system EXACTLY.
I tried several approachses like "chroot /dev/sdc" because there would be my root directory, according
to the previous steps.. But it doesn't work a bit. I searched the net but found nothing that helped me.
Any suggestions?
Thanks for your help

Try
 
# emerge --regen  
If You've an active software firewall ... try to disable it temporarily.

Hi cardinal!
Thank you again for your suggestion! It worked flawlessly!
Now the system is set up and rebooted. Next step will be - when i will be able to
spare time again - to install and setup xorg. Maybe you will find there a new post from me.... :P
Greetings

Don't leave us hanging.  If you solved the problem that's awesome, but let us know what happened and how you solved it, in case anyone else ever has the same problem!  Honestly even the process of how you went about solving it could help someone else.

Hi cardinal!
thank you, I missed the meaning of "." !!
I will try and let you know the result. :)

Following the install instructions to the letter.
Your target install partition /dev/sdc should be mounted to the working directory which is /mnt/funtoo
The period . after chroot is a shortcut for the working directory.

# env -i HOME=/root TERM=$TERM chroot . bash -l Find your working directory with print working directory command:
pwd If pwd outputs /mnt/funtoo then:
# env -i HOME=/root TERM=$TERM chroot . bash -l is the same as
# env -i HOME=/root TERM=$TERM chroot /mnt/funtoo bash -l
