here's how i did it...and it follows your correct logic.
(format ur new partition first)
mv /usr /usr-old
mkdir /usr
mount /dev/hda6 /usr
cd /usr-old
mv * /usr
(modify fstab)
i suggest u do all of this in single user mode...just to be safe, with as little
daemons running as possible. actually, the usr partition is one of the least
busy ones. /var is the busiest.
