Hello
I'm trying to install FreeBSD with the following partition scheme...
/boot 100mb (50mb too small? Install fails with filesystem full error)
swap 1gb
/tmp 100mb
/ remainder
However after I install and boot, it says it can't find /boot/kernel/kernel
The version is 6.0. Am I missing sometihn

I can separate /usr, but my goal is to combine /home and /var, or at least
where mail and databases are stored, for reasons already mentioned.
I suppose I could do this.

Just curious... What are the security reasons? After some thought, here's
what I'm planning on doing...
Disk is 73gb scsi...
/ 500mb
swap4gb
/var4gb
/usr4gb
