Ok now, I'm getting fed up with all of the breakage that I've seen in Gentoo
in the last few months.
I'm trying to upgrade MythTV. Emerge told me to upgrade my profile, which I
did.
Now I'm doing an emerge -u world.
But before I could do that, I had to upgrade portage, with made sense.

With all the words of LVM2 going on, I feel it is only appropriate to also
mention the risk.
On a desktop I had installed LVM2 considering that I did need to upgrade
partitions every now and then and my previous solution was add another

Um, no. This gives you new usr and var directories like so:
/usr/usr/
/var/var
You want:
cp -a /mnt/gentoo/backup/var /mnt/gentoo/

Hi,
I found out my /usr is getting full pretty fast, so I want
to increase it before it happens a real problem. I have:
/dev/md4 (sda5+sdb5), ~5GB size, used for /var, nearly empty
/dev/md5 (sda6+sdb6), ~5GB size, used for /usr, nearly full (90%)
And I have /backup on separate partition (hda1),
