[systemd-devel] Cannot mount anything after recovering and redoing boot mbr

I suspect that somebody here knows why, but all mounts now fail... well all but /.

Has anyone run across this before?  What did I miss?

I accidentally messed up my boot mbr. and I did a rescue cd and chroot in order 
to rerun grub2-mkconfig and do a grub2-install.

Now the system boots to a grub menu and tries to boot, root fileystem mounts but 
all other mounts fail so goes into "emergency" mode.  From that shell I cannot 
seem to mount anything, they all fail saying that whatever I'm trying to mount 
is already mounted or it's "in use".  I can't fsck umounted filesystems either. 
  They all say "in use".

Any hints?  I'm running openSUSE 13.2 if that matters.
