   This is just the opposite of my situation.  I'm running off a single
   380 megabyte disk that only has three partitions - /, /usr, and swap.
   I have about 600 blocks free on the root partition, but lots of
   space on /usr, so I run with /tmp symlinked to /usr/tmp (if I have
   to come up single-user or something like that, I remove the /tmp link
   and make a real directory).

You don't have to. In single user mode (/usr not mounted), mkdir /usr/tmp.
The symlink will work in both cases. When running multiuser, the
single user copy will be hidden.

BTW, I would recommend splitting that big /usr partition into more pieces.
It gives you more flexibility.

What I want to find out is -- do parrots know much about Astro-Turf?
