The bootlogd is only suggested.

Ah, first thing to say is: I've successfully installed and rebooted a couple of
times each: my clone (which I use also for testing, and which is the only that
sees ever any internet), and my master Air-Gap system.

And maybe the second thing to say is. If anyone needs the packages that
(
if those are, and I think they are; they worked for me
)
are needed to install OpenRC, get them at:
https://lists.dyne.org/lurker/message/20170711.035614.33ea6395.en.html
They are also hashed by me in my email in this very thread that we are writing
our discussions about OpenRC --under bad subject, but it's really too late now
to correct that-- I think its previous mail of mine that I sent, or whatever,
my Palemoon still crashes unpredictably, and can't open huge threads, and that
one is a huge thread where this new discussion belongs to...

The instructions how to get the packages are:
OpenRC installation in Devuan Ascii
https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=1128#p3286

And of course, you can also get them directly:
https://www.croatiafidelis.hr/foss/Devuan-OpenRC/

Pls., guys, I think all went correctly, but I think I should leave the report
there, at:
( same topic as linked a few lines up )
https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=1128

and not repeat it here...

Thanks Svante, thanks zap, thanks also Rick Moen (I even mentioned you in that
Dev1Galaxy topic linked above when I saw full shouting at me that ugly message
that you wrote about), and Adam Borowski...
