Subject:	Warn users not to do separate /usr partition without proper initramfs in the handbook?
Date:	Sat, 30 Jul 2011 10:27:27 +0300

Since running separate /usr without mounting it from initramfs on top of
/ before init is and has been broken with udev for a long time now[1][2][3]

Can we warn users about not doing the separate /usr mistake in the handbook?
