Hi,

make sure that also the „image_size“ is what your disk size for installing 
gentoo was.

Other than that I would think that maybe the json you fed into vmadm might miss 
something - if imgadm install was happy and does show something on „imgadm info 
5dd00a5a-a4a2-11e3-b108-872584435077“ your manifest should be fine.

Could you post the json you used to create the new machine based on that image?
