Without an explanation of the considerations for doing so.  I understand
why LFS does it, although I respectfully disagree that spreading a
single user system among different drives/partitions makes much sense
with the large drives we have these days.  Keeping the FHS in one
partition keeps all the free space in one pool.

I've had to adapt a few things, but it hasn't "broken" anything yet.

Great!  I sincerely believe we're going to need a trailblazer with
experience sooner or later.
