How to mount a directory?
One of my servers has most of the drive space allocated to /home.
There is also a mount for /usr but not that much space is allocated to it. All of the install/set-up scripts I have use the path of /usr. Is there a way to allocate all of the space from /home to /usr and kill /home ? Or should I mount /usr/local/apache (i want this directory) with the space from /home ? I guess I am asking how to mount the space from /home to /usr/local/apache ?? I'm using ext3. Thanks for you help. |

If you backup /home, you can do that. Backup /home, umount /home and create instead of 1 partition 2 partitions. 1 part for /home, the other one for /usr (as desired). |

But it is not easy to move an existing /usr

why not just make a symbolic link from the full partition to the empty one?

yeah, the symlink works and is probably the easiest way to fix.
