The other big use case these days would be SSDs. I tend to have one |
| 12 |
SSD filesystem for root, and one SSD filesystem for everything else. |

That means a lot of bind mounts, but it all works. I'm not about to |

get into separate filesystems for random directories in var that tend |
| 15 |
to get big. |
