You don't *need* a separate partition.  For example, I run catalyst
out of a chroot on an Ubuntu machine at work (on a machine that's
maintained by a non-Gentoo sysadmin).  However, the main catalyst devs
are probably running catalyst on native Gentoo systems, which means
that there may be a few kinks to work out if you want to go a
different route [1].

Since system-building is a fairly resource intensive task, I'd
recommend not using a full-blown virtual system unless you have to.

Cheers,
Trevor
