Hello, all.
So, my question is, does anyone know what will happen if I try to umount -l, 
remove the /usr/lib mountpoint, and rename /usr/lib2 to /usr/lib? It would seem 
that there'd be no problem as long as I don't need to log into a new shell? 
Going the other way wasn't a problem, as I just renamed the old folder and 
mounted the partition on a new one.

That should work, I think.  If nothing else, you should be able to
boot with init=/bin/bash to get a really basic environment with
nothing mounted or running.

Or you may try doing it from the CD. That is how I move things around, just to make sure I don't get one of those pisky file is busy or locked things.
