Like it or not, it's the simplest possible solution if you want separate /usr. The plan is to provide a minimal initramfs that won't contain any modules, so it won't have to be rebuilt for each kernel. See the "/usr vs. initramfs redux" thread: http://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/msg_020fa80d72c84c5b587b90d8001264ef.xml -- Thanks, Zac
