 +
 +You can install ''pygrub'' with the USE flag on the xen-tools package, which is a python wrapper to the old GRUB installs. Alternatively, you can use the newer ''pvgrub'' instead.
 +
 +<code>
 +emerge xen-pvgrub xen-tools xen
 +</code>
 +
 +Once you've emerged the packages, there will be a ''xen.gz'' kernel located in ''/boot''. You'll need to update your bootloader to use that as the kernel. Your original kernel is passed in as a module.
 +
 +A sample GRUB legacy configuration:
 +
 +<code>
 +title Xen Gentoo Linux 4.1.12
 +root (hd0,0)
 +kernel /boot/xen.gz
 +module /boot/vmlinuz-4.1.12-gentoo root=/dev/sda3
 +</code>
 +
 +Update the Xen services to start on boot:
 +
 +<code>
 +rc-update add xencommons default
 +rc-update add xenconsoled default
 +rc-update add xenstored default
 +</code>
 +
 +If you want Xen domains to start on boot, put the configuration files in ''/etc/xen/auto'', and add ''xendomains'' to the startup sequence:
 +
 +<code>
 +ln -s /etc/xen/configs/openbsd-5.9_amd64 /etc/xen/configs/auto/
 +</code>
 +
 +<code>
 +rc-update add xendomains default
 +</code>
 +
 +Update ''/etc/inittab'':
 +
 +<code>
 +c0:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 hvc0 linux
 +</code>
 +
 +Reload your new inittab:
 +
 +<code>
 +telinit q
 +</code>
