AFAIK, fstab is in the /etc directory and can't be accessed to find the
mount point for /etc .
Can you pass the kernel the partition name for /etc at boot time like you
can for / ??
If so, then:
mkdir /etc/usr
ln -s /etc/usr /usr
Hope this helps,
Bill

Subject: [expert] Two Directories on Same Partition?
If you're an expert you'll probably think this is a newbie question.
<g>. I've looked at a bunch of man pages, howtos, and Web sites without
finding the answer... which may be the answer!
Can you put two "low-level" directories in the same partition? For
example, can I have / in one partition and both /etc and /usr in one
separate partition? If so, what goes in fstab?
