I recently attended Linux Plumbers Conf and saw Harald's talk on dracut
which got me interested in getting it into Gentoo. I just committed a
working ebuild for the latest version into the tree [1]. We had to make
a few patches in order to get it to work for us, so I created a branch
of the patches on github [2] for you guys to look at. If you prefer, I
can send the patches directly here. I wasn't the original author for
some of the patches, but you can see the discussion in the original bug
[3]. Specifically 3649a19207 needs some more work to make it more distro
agnostic.

I tested an image on a Gentoo machine and it worked but I haven't fully
tested all of the capabilities yet (I'm planning on doing that soon). If
you have any comments or suggestions for the Gentoo package, please
direct them to me since I'm the new maintainer.
