Hi folks,
I've posted about this problem to the forums[1] without luck despite
getting more than a thousand views so I thought I'll try here.
My system boots successfully but filesystem check fails for /usr which
is on a separate partition:

Any ideas what is going on and how do I make the fsck check succeed?
It seems the init script(s) within your initramfs implements no
logic/hooks for fsck but just mount your /usr partition. After switching

Thank you for the suggestion,
Alan, Floyd,
Thanks for your responses.
Indeed I prefer to not maintain my own initramfs scripts. Right now I
use genkernel initramfs but it seems to not be doing the right thing
regarding /usr partition mounting (as I understand now it's not a
problem with OpenRC fsck service). On the other hand

It's OpenRC service fsck that performs filesystem checks on boot runlevel
(/etc/init.d/fsck):
$ rc-status boot | grep fsck
fsck [ started ]

It is, and the reason it works is that you do not u
Shouldn't that be taken care of by the "/etc/fstab" entries?
Obviously, if "/usr" is on a separate partition, it needs to be mounted at
the time when "/usr/sbin/fsck" is expected to be present.
