i do this:
mount new filesystem on /mnt/tmp
cd /usr && find . -print0 | cpio -p0vumd /mnt/tmp
then, reboot from a floppy and do
cd /
mv usr usr.old
mkdir /usr
chown root.root /usr
chmod 755 usr
try a test mount of the new partition, and if it
works, edit your /etc/fstab to reflect the new mount point.
Yours,
Andy
