What a crock of (#$@. "We broke the rules and now we're going to perpetuate the 
mistake because we can't be bothered to go fix our past screwups." Damn kids!! 
No one says it has to boot to network-aware multi user (init=3 or higher) 
without /usr but it damn well better post to single-user and be able to mount 
all "local" (ie non-network dependent) block devices without /usr. I swear, the 
work product out of RedHat gets worse every year.

Definitely do NOT assume they put stuff in /usr/sbin. Always use /sbin and if 
RedHat forgot something, make them fix their symlink abomination (what is this, 
Fedora aspires to be fscking Slowaris with /etc/init -> /sbin/init and holy 
hell breaks if you don't have the /etc/init link?).
