If I correctly remember the post by Lennart that spawned this entire |
2 |
debate, there were and are genuine technical reasons why a separate /usr |
3 |
filesystem doesn't really work anymore. Perhaps fixable _if_ all package |
4 |
developers (other than init) paid attention but that's not going to |
5 |
happen. |

Now of course there is some leap from the above to making /bin and |
8 |
/usr/bin the same _directory_. AFAIK there is no good reason for that |
9 |
other than making it easier to write initscripts (or units). I'm not |
10 |
going to opine how good a reason is that :P |
11 |
|
12 |
Myself, I just have /usr on the rootfs. I don't have an initramfs; when |
13 |
I need a "rescue" environment I boot from a USB stick, not necessarily |
14 |
gentoo. Devuan seems to be the best for this kind of thing nowadays. |
