Um... You can't mount /home, /tmp, /usr, and /var on hda5. You can only
mount a partition at one place at a time.
You _can_ make one partition a piece for home, tmp, usr, and var and do
something like:
mount /dev/hda5 /home
mount /dev/hda6 /usr
mount /dev/hda7 /var
...I'm not sure you want to mount /tmp seperately. To be on the safe
side... might want to leave that where it is.
