I would like to show support for this option. I've been running /usr on the / partition on *all* my FBSD machines for the past 4 years. The reasons for having a separate / and /usr just don't apply today. Disks are large enough to hold both, and UFS(FFS) is stable. Sun and SGI both combine / and /usr on their pre-installed workstation machines. _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
