When doing a fresh install, how do I spread a slice across three HD's? Say for example the system has 4 HD's, each 20 gigs in size, and HD1 has all the normal slices, the swap file, var, tmp, and the root slice ("/") and then in turn HD's 2, 3, and 4 would then all have one huge slice titled "/usr" on them as a spanned slice. Is this possible or am I totally off? Basically what I need to do is take one folder and span it across 3 HD's if possible. Any suggestions how to do this would be welcome.
