I don't think it's a good idea for Gentoo to encourage users to have /usr on a separate partition. We should probably remove the separate /usr partition from "Code Listing 2.1: Filesystem usage example" in our handbook: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=1&chap=4#doc_chap2_pre1 -- Thanks, Zac
