Hello PLUG!

Currently, I don't have /usr on a separate partition. My / partition is 5GB 
and almost full. I want to move /usr (which sums up to 3.6 GB of my / 
partition) to a separate partition. It is safe? Well, I know that playing 
with partitions is never really safe, but are there issues with moving /usr 
to a separate partition because of which it should be 
avoided/NOT-DONE-AT-ALL? All I need is more space in order to install new 
software. Is there any better way I can achieve this? Maybe moving /opt to a 
different partition?

I'm running SuSE 9.2.

Here's output of 'df':
