I'm very now to Gentoo I've been trying day and night for 7 days now to install a systemd/Gentoo system without any luck. It's been really easy to install Gentoo with openRC because it's the default init system. Here are the steps that I used to install systemd but it's still not used as the default init system.

1.Configure kernel as directed in systemd Gentoo page.
2. Built an initramfs with "genkernel --install --udev --no-ramdisk-modules initramfs"
3. simlinked "ln -sf /proc/self/mounts /etc/mtab"
3. Installed sys-apps/dbus with a -systemd USE flag
4. Installed sys-apps/systemd with "udev dbus systemd bindist mmx sse sse2 alsa dvd X qt gtk -kde gnome" USE flags
5.added "
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="init=/usr/lib/systemd/systemd" to /etc/default/grub
6. Added "real_init=/usr/lib/systemd/systemd" to grub entry in /boot/grub/grub.cfg
7. reboot


But each time it still boots up with openRC? What steps did I miss? Please help? I've had so little sleep trying to solve this problem.
