I USED to install Fedora on my eeepc 901 with /usr not on the root
partition. that machine has a 4 gig SSD and a 16 gig SSD. I'd put
/ on the 4 gig, /home, /usr and swap on the 16 gig. if I put /usr
on the 4-gig partition it'd be almost full right off the bat, so that
simply adding a few more packages and it'd be full. so I moved /usr to
the other drive.
but since you can't have a (supported) separate /usr anymore I've
stopped doing that. now I just make both drives into a LVM and put
everything inside it. it feels slower that way, but at leasst it all
fits.
