59WARNINGS:
60 systemd will warn you during boot if /etc/mtab is not a
61 symlink to /proc/mounts. Please ensure that /etc/mtab is a
62 proper symlink.
63
64 systemd will warn you during boot if /usr is on a different
65 file system than /. While in systemd itself very little will
66 break if /usr is on a seperate partition many of its
67 dependencies very likely will break sooner or later in one
68 form or another. For example udev rules tend to refer to
69 binaries in /usr, binaries that link to libraries in /usr or
70 binaries that refer to data files in /usr. Since these
71 breakages are not always directly visible systemd will warn
72 about this, since this kind of file system setup is not really
73 supported anymore by the basic set of Linux OS components.
