This is probably a dumb question, but currently where is /usr a symlink to? AFAIK, on my Debian GNU/Linux system, /usr is its own dir, and not a symlink.
As Thomas pointed out earlier, it's specific to the GNU system, and that's where Debian GNU/Hurd took it from. The default for Debian GNU/Hurd is to have a separate /usr, though. (See http://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/faq.en.html#q1-7 for the reasons behind the symlink.)
Also, with my limited knowledge, would a hard link work instead of a soft one (symlink)? Thanks for the info.
Hard links are not allowed for directories. But even if they were, I don't see how that would solve anything. Cheers, -- Manuel Menal -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
