hello all,

i am running out of room in /usr on my 1.2GB drive and am looking for a
way to expand. with solaris 2.6, openwindows, cde _and_ gnustep/window
maker installed, here's the picture:

#df -k
Filesystem             kbytes    used    avail  capacity   Mounted on
/dev/dsk/c0t3d0s0      297983   35023   233162     14%     /
/dev/dsk/c0t3d0s6      692438  616112    20931     97%     /usr
/proc                       0       0        0      0%     /proc
fd                          0       0        0      0%     /dev/fd
swap                   127484     192   127292      1%     /tmp

FWIW i bought it used and inherited the partition table  :-)

is there a way to symlink part of / to /usr/local ... or safely grow /usr
without nuking the system ... or does anyone have an extra 2GB disk for sale?

and yes, i could live without cde, but IMHO openwindows is butt-ugly, and
window maker causes so many core dumps it's almost not worth having (but
is mighty fine looking...)
