No really,*why exactly*?
Because that was the RECOMMENDED WAY IN THE GENTOO HANDBOOK when I first
set this system up many years ago.
I have no philosophical reason reason to stick with it, only a (maybe
irrational) fear of breaking things if I attempt to merge it back into /.
This, combined with an intense (also maybe irrational) desire to avoid
like the plague using an initramfs, is why this decision to FORCE me
into a position of possibly having to break my system (either by a filed
attempt at merging /usr into /, or a failed attampt at using an initramfs).
I too sincerely hope eudev bypasses this issue.
The main thing about this that pisses me off is the lack of enough
warning... one month? Really? One month to compleyelt rebuild a seerver
that has been running flawlessly for many years, just because someone
doesn't like something that has been done for many years?
