In some case you can, in some others you cannot. But if you have a complete bootable rescue environment, which if slightly tuned is going to be as big as one or two initramfs (IOW, trivially small), then you are safe against any kind of crashes. > Now, you tell me: what are the advantage of requiring having > everything in /usr exactly? I really don't get what the advantage is. I am not going to argue about this again right now. -- ciao, Marco
