+<PRE>'Twas brillig, and Kira at 01/12/11 05:53 did gyre and gimble:
+&gt;<i> Have you done with the update?
+</I>
+Yeah. I even CC'ed you in on a mail about it! Perhaps by CC'ing you it
+broke your filtering and made the mail *less* obvious... backfire if it
+did! Won't CC you this time and let you get it from the list :)
+
+&gt;<i> I saw the update today and remade the
+</I>&gt;<i> mkinitrd, but still not working. Same error message.
+</I>
+Hmm, bummer.
+
+I have updated the package again, but it shouldn't really make any
+difference. Please update it all the same when it reaches your mirror.
+
+
+Then can you do the following after regenerating the initrd:
+
+1. Become root.
+2. mkdir ~/boot
+3. cd ~/boot
+4. zcat /boot/initrd.img | cpio -id # NB replace the initrd file name
+if needed
+5. find lib/modules/*/kernel -type f
+6. ls lib/dracut/hooks/mount/
+7. ls lib/dracut/hooks/pre-pivot/
+
+
+In theory, there should be a file in the last directory (pre-pivot)
+called 50mount-usr.sh It's its job to mount the /usr partition, but it
+obviously fails for some reason.
+
+
+Also, I presume /etc/ is on your root file system (I think that's pretty
+much a requirement)?
+
+What file system are you actually using? You said it's a pure fs (i.e.
+no LVM), but is it e.g. btrfs or xfs etc.? Does the module needed to
+support that fs exist in the output from 5?
+
+Please attach/paste the output from commands 5-7 to your reply.
+
+Cheers and thanks for working through this with me.
