/var/run is a link to /run but that is normal. My system mounts all work fine. I do have a bunch of /media/x/y/z mounts that fail, but that is not easily fixable apart from removing it, but I don't want to do that. Besides, sysv-init worked fine with that set up. If this is indeed the reason why it is failing, it is still a bug in systemd (or the systemd service definition for openssh) that should be fixed. There is nothing that says I must have all-valid mounts in /etc/fstab during boot, nor should there be - that would be ridiculous. I filed a similar bug for lighttpd too, but I guess less people are paying attention to that. So there is something wrong either with systemd, or any guidelines/examples that openssh/lighttpd used to write their systemd service definitions.
