        <pre>One issue we are hitting while telling people how to migrate on Gentoo from
openRC to systemd is that some commands need to be run once you booted using
systemd and, then, instead of being able to configure all the stuff before
rebooting using new init system, people need to boot using a midworking one ->
use the tools to configure their systems properly -> reboot again.

The tools we would like to run outside systemd being run to get it configured
before we boot to it would be:
hostnamectl -> at least "hostnamectl set-hostname" should work 
localectl set-locale
localectl set-keymap
localectl set-x11-keymap
timedatectl set-timezone
timedatectl set-local-rtc

Thanks a lot</pre>
