I get the error message in the subject line every time my computer starts. It's running Debian Testing/Jessie 64 bit.
There seems, however, to be nothing wrong. If I run 'systemctl status systemd-remount-fs.service' I get the following:
● systemd-remount-fs.service - Remount Root and Kernel File Systems Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/systemd-remount-fs.service; static) Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Wed 2014-12-10 12:23:12 GMT; 6h ago Docs: man:systemd-remount-fs.service(8) http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/APIFileSystems Process: 292 ExecStart=/lib/systemd/systemd-remount-fs (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) Main PID: 292 (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE)

That seems to indicate a problem with the /usr mount but /usr is mounted and the options in fstab are the same as the /home /usr/local and /var partitions which are 'defaults'. The 'root' partition is mounted r/w.
Does anyone understand this stuff? I don't.

I've not had time to play with systemd yet, but it sounds like something is trying to remount the filesystems when they've already been remounted. The service script should probably notice that and exit with success after doing no action, as far as I can tell.
"man mount" says exit code 32 is "mount failure" which isn't that helpful. Does dmesg contain any useful tips?
Good luck and don't let the error get you down if nothing is wrong!

After a bit more digging around it appears to be a bug related to initramfs . I shall wait for an update.
