    Hi,

    This issue has already been reported by mkm@ so apologies if this is
    a duplicate, thought I should chime in too.

    The mount code reports that /usr is not clean, yet fsck claims to have
    marked /usr clean after its usual post-boot background preen (even if
    I am dropped into single-user mode, unmount, and force a foreground fsck).

    Therefore multi-user mode boot fails.
    mkm@ reports this issue since the 25th Nov. I only noticed it today.

    The workaround which mkm@ and I are currently using is to add the -f
    flag to /etc/rc.d/mountcritlocal - this is not desirable for many reasons!

    Can anyone advise on resolution of the problem?

    Many thanks,
    BMS
