For the new partition layout be recognized by the kernel you may
need to reboot (into single user) at this point. Your /usr will be
mounted (as a small filesystem in a larger partition) but swap wont
work upon reboot. So after reboot you should again do:
# umount /usr
No need for "swapoff -a" as it shouldn't be working in the first
place.
