I would hope so. How in the world does the system know where to look for
/bin? The only way it has is to look in /bin. If the stuff is not there,

/bin, /lib, /etc all MUST be on the / partition, or the system cannot
find them.

to another location, creating a suitable mount point such as /usr,
mounting the partition on the mount point, and adjusting /etc/fstab
accordingly. Why does this procedure not work for /bin?
