seriously, you have seemed to miss some news. There is a move by redhat&co to |
| 29 |
move almost everything from / to /usr. With nothing left than some mountpoints |
| 30 |
- why put / on its own partition? There is nothing to contain apart from /etc. |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
Your sarcasm fails because you think that there is an intrinsic reason to keep |
| 33 |
/ seperate. Well, with / filled with usefull binaries to bring a hosed system |
| 34 |
back from the garbage pile that was true for some peole. But with the current |
| 35 |
movement there isn't anything there at all. |
