Cool! But when making isos, just make sure openrc is included in the
netinst image. For ASCII, it wasn't, making openrc a non-option for
air-gapped installs.

Upgrading from a fresh, minimal (no recommends) ASCII install w/o any
extra software worked fine for me. If one is going to upgrade right
after the ASCII install anyway, not installing extra software during
the initial install saves you lots of bandwidth.

Hope this helps,
