Hi, I've got slink running, just tried an upgrade with apt and encountered the following weird behaviour:
linux:/home/alex# mount /dev/hda2 on / type ext2 (rw,errors=remount-ro) proc on /proc type proc (rw) /dev/hda5 on /home type ext2 (rw,errors=remount-ro) /dev/hda6 on /usr type ext2 (rw,errors=remount-ro) /dev/hda7 on /var type ext2 (rw,errors=remount-ro) linux:/home/alex# apt-get upgrade Reading Package Lists...

On another system using slink, I noticed that apt doesn't work correctly if there's no separate mount point for /usr, eg when you put everything in one big partition. Did anyone else encounter similar problems? I'd just like to ask, before I report this as a bug... Alex
