Since you mention rc single.  I did that a good while back.  Afterwards
I went to boot runlevel then to the default runlevel.  When I got to the
default runlevel, it was not working like it should.  I rebooted and
everything was back to normal.  Have you ever ran into that?  It's been
a while, most likely when the openrc change was going on.  Just curious.

I may give that a try.  That sounds like a plan.  I'll be ready for a
reboot tho, just in case.  lol
