But your real problem is a stupid original disk layout. Why don;t you decide to fix that instead of getting into cute tricks with symlinks?

Because I let my server host install it with their default disk layout. When I realise it looks pretty un-servish I had already installed http server with client website on it. The simplest for me was to move folders because I did not find any 'how to' that say it would be simple de repartition with keeping your data on.

It should be pretty easy to rsync /home to some other (temporary)
place, 'pvcreate /dev/home-whatever' and lvcreate, say, a
separate vol for portage (with it's ever-growing tree/distfiles) and
for /home, leaving plenty of space to play with, should you need it
either on these partitions or to create others.

Well, LVM is just what I mean ;)

LVM...hm nice new word to me. And rsync too, looks good. Ok I will have a look when I'm safer.
Got that emerge -v world to finish ;)

I read about a tool to color the etc-update difference, can't find it again, if you know about it ;)
thx
Laurent.
