I am looking at creating a gentoo install which I can use for my hosted
servers.  The documentation I have seen about doing so is to mount an
"ISO" and then dd the mounted device to a data drive, make the data
drive bootable (set it in the settings for hosting provider) and attach
it to a server.

I want to be able to build these images and test them in a virtual
machine on my local server, then end up doing what I need on the hosting
provider to get them in place.

Quick research hasn't given me any clear guidance as to how I can export
the virtual machine (ie. what even can do this) to an image that can be
copied to a drive to produce a bootable drive.

Anyone have some good starting points to think about this?
