Apparently /usr has needed to be available at boot time for a long time, but this seems to have completely passed me by, and hasn't yet bitten me. I have always thought that 'usr' was short for 'user', and that /usr contains only applications and not system software. We learn something every day: whether we want to or not. I can see that I'm not going to be upgrading my server next time, but rebuilding from scratch, as it has a /usr partition and isn't on LVM. At the very least, it's a partition rebuild onto another drive. Oh, joy. -- Joe -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
