Hi
I am aware that what I am asking for is a bit ugly.

The reason is that I have a small amount of memory at my disposal.  I'm working 
with a setup with two partitions, a root-fs and an overlayed application file 
system. None of them has enough space for python.
Therefore I want to install it on the eMMC, which has plenty of space.
So instead of /usr which is on the root/app file system, I would install it 
under /media/<somewhere> on the mounted eMMC.

But maybe there exists a more elegant solution?

Kind regards,
Felix
