In /run goes a tmpfs, and it gets mounted really early in the boot process, so programs can write to it without /var being mounted (/var/run is a bind mount of /run in modern systems). # mount | grep /run tmpfs on /run type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,mode=755) tmpfs on /var/run type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,mode=755) I suppose OpenRC has a problem mounting /run on your system, but I don't know, I use systemd.
