Some time ago I made experiences to build my own initramfs that mount /usr. I hit the same problem, the only way I found to workaround this was to set the sixth field of the /usr entry in the fstab to 0, as man fstab says : > If the sixth field is not present or zero, a value of zero is > returned and fsck will assume that the filesystem does not need to be checked. But, the /usr partition was never checked.
From the OpenRC see, I'd close this as NEEDINFO. Please capture the actual openrc log output for the bug, first with a stock conf.d/fsck, and then update conf.d/fsck to contain: fsck_args='-A -p -M' And capture the log again, attach both of the logs here.
Correction for comment #1 : not exactly the same conditions and behavior. I'm on stable x86 with openrc-0.9.8.4, and when the openrc fsck init script is starting with a premounted rw /usr, it ends up with an operationnal error, but other filesystems are anyway checked and the system is booting normally. > * Checking local filesystems ... > [...] > > /dev/sdb3 is mounted. e2fsck: Cannot continue, stopping now. > > [...] > > * Operational error [!!] As I said in comment #1 the sixth field of the /usr entry in the fstab is helping me to correct the issue, so I guess it's the correct behavior.
Also note that dracut actually does an fsck on the /usr partition prior to mounting it (all before going to the real root FS. I too put a zero in the fstab field. I would rather see a fsck of the /usr, but I guess that is the point of early mounting. This whole /usr thing seems like a case of taking something was working great and ...
This is expected behavior for dracut. Init system is expected to handle rw /usr. There's actually no need to /usr be mounted ro, because it's checked at initramfs. Please file a bug for OpenRC.
(In reply to comment #5) > There's actually no need to /usr be mounted ro, because it's checked > at initramfs. Please file a bug for OpenRC. This was already handled and fixed in bug #401573.
