I've not made such a switch, but if you remember the steps you took, you can generally just reverse them. That is, emerge openrc again, change the kernel line in GRUB to point to regular init instead of systemd's init, reboot, and things *should* fall into place. USB drives mounting as root sounds like a udev thing rather than a systemd thing, and switching to OpenRC for your init won't fix it afaik. For the devices that you need this behavior for, it might be worth looking into writing some udev rules. You can get a start by consulting `lsusb` output and Googling for 'udev rules' to get a wide variety of guides for writing udev rules. Despite the recent changes to udev by the systemd team, udev still functions mostly the same and most guides will be accurate. I hope this helps! ~Daniel
