Installing local on Gentoo OpenRC

[jlpoolen]

I downloaded and staged the shell script, install.sh, because using the suggested command get croaking out complaining about docker. I do have docker installed, but the daemon crashes, so I do not have it running. Here's the failure session:

ryzdesk /usr/local/src/localai # sh install.sh
Docker detected.
Docker detected and no installation method specified. Using Docker.
install.sh: line 397: systemctl: command not found
Starting Docker...
install.sh: line 399: systemctl: command not found
ryzdesk /usr/local/src/localai # 

So I'm the special case where I have docker, but do not want to use it, so to overcome the scripts decision to use docker if found, I had to explicitly set an environmental variable. Below is the fix I used: set DOCKER_INSTALL to false, then the script proceeded loading the binary image. I normally avoid binary images, but when I learned the @mudler here has been a noble Gentoo developer and I looked at his "about" page, I embraced the concept with blind trust. So I thought I'd post here for those select few who many have docker installed, but do not wish to use the docker approach.

ryzdesk /usr/local/src/localai # export DOCKER_INSTALL=false
ryzdesk /usr/local/src/localai # sh install.sh
Docker detected.
