SuSE is moving most if not all of their boot-related binaries off of "/" and
putting
them in /usr, requiring that you either have 1 partition for / and /usr or you run
their initrd that will pre-mount /usr on "/". Supposedly this is a requirement
of moving the the MS-compat boot architecture, "systemd" and is being done by all
the distros... (supposedly)... At least RedHat and SuSE are going that way...
It's great to boot up in single-user from your hard disk and be told mount
needs libs on a yet-to-be mounted partition...
