Who? Can you provide us with some more info? Any logs?

I don't know how to get the logs written to disk, the startup process aborts
before /var is mounted.

I see the output from "fsck -p -F" , it then says:

mount: /usr/compat: no such file or directory
mounting /etc/fstab filesytems failed, startup aborted

I'm then given the prompt to pick a shell.

Avoiding the symlink by using /usr/compat/linux/proc still causes a failure.
However, if I use a mountpoint on the root partition it mounts correctly.

And show us your /etc/fstab, please.

fstab is below,
