William,

I've been there and done that.  My firewall was blocking git as I 
thought I had no use for it, so I got baselayout2 but not openrc.
openrc was only available from git in 2007
I was late, so I just switched off and went to bed.

I had to back out baselayout2 and do it again.  Its was fairly easy for 
me as I keep binpackages of everything I build.  It still needed a 
liveCD boot.
