    Hi,
    During Sarge install, I mounted /usr on a separate partition and did
    the install. Now, after I installed some software, /usr has aroung 100M
    free. My question is, can I use mount to mount an additional drive
    under /usr to increase the space? Or do I have to use LVM? I read the
    LVM pages, but it did not make sense. What would I need to do for the
    same?
