right, /usr/* tells to copy everything inside /usr/, but not the /usr
directory name itself.  I think a different way to achieve this is:

# cp -ax /usr

> # umount /mnt
> # rm -r /usr/*
> # mount /dev/hda2 /usr

I believe you then mount /dev/hda2 to be able to edit /etc/fstab and add the
line... ah, I see now, the mount command does exist in /bin.  Instead, I
edited /etc/fstab and added the line first, then I removed the contents
inside /usr... and rebooted.  Many different ways to achieve the same goal.

I just wonder if I /lost+found subdirs created in new ext2 partitions can be
deleted or they have to stay there for any reason... they do take some
space.
