 The '''consolekit-openrc''' package can be installed. Consolekit supports multi-user setups, mounting of partitions by unauthorized users, etc. See the [https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/ConsoleKit Gentoo-Wiki] for more details.
-Only caveat of installing consolekit is that it requires ''polkit-consolekit'', which conflicts with the normal polkit; so if you boot to systemd you wont be able to mount partitions if you are not in the storage group.
-However using the command line, or as root user, one can mount any partition or perform most functions that are made available to the normal user via polkit. See the [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Polkit Arch-wiki] for more details.
 Consolekit also allows a normal (non-root) user to shutdown or restart the system if the desktop environment supports it.
-See the [[Openrc#Using_Consolekit | Using Consolekit]] section on how to install and for more info.
