Are you sure that /usr is mounted ? If I remember well, you are
pretty sure that / is mounted, but for the rest you need to be sure
that the system is in a correct state. If it is not (mount will tell
it to you), then call fsck on the improper fileystems.

2nd obs: check the PATH variable. The commands may be accessible
through direct path.
