It seems the init script(s) within your initramfs implements no |
| 10 |
logic/hooks for fsck but just mount your /usr partition. After switching |
| 11 |
to real root your OpenRC fsck init script try to check /usr partition |
| 12 |
due to the specified 2 for passno (sixth field in /usr fstab entry) and |
| 13 |
fails because it is already mounted. |

You have to implement your own logic in initramfs init script(s) and set |
| 16 |
passno to 0 for /usr partition to prevent the OpenRC fsck. Have a look |
| 17 |
at [1] as a starting point. Also check if /etc/initramfs.mounts exists |
| 18 |
(comes with genkernel-next and probably with other packages, I am not |
| 19 |
sure at this) and what is defined in there. |

The steps to realise a fsck check hook within an initramfs init script |
| 22 |
may not be trivial and time consuming on building/testing, so, as Alan |
| 23 |
suggested earlier, checking your partition with a booted rescue live CD |
| 24 |
or similar, may prevent some headaches. |
