Has there been an update to util-linux to make the above -R option skip checking /usr in addition to the rootfs? That was a prerequisite for mounting /usr in the initramfs. Looking at the mount options, it occurs to me that maybe we should use -M in place of -R when we know we have run fsck in the initramfs. Then it will skip /usr as a matter of course, but it would also skip fsck of the rootfs so won't be appropriate when not using an initramfs. You could if you wanted try using -M in checkfs as a workaround if the above is the case. Or maybe check util-linux is up-to-date in case it just needs upgrading. Regards, Roger -- .''`.
